Bain is a relatively new barbecue restaurant on Cooper Street at the corner of Felix Avenue near just south of Cooper/Young. I went there this past Saturday afternoon for lunch.
I had heard a number of rave reviews about it but unfortunately I wasn't particularly impressed. I ordered a pulled pork plate with a side of macaroni and cheese and an appetizer of pork hatch queso.
It looked really good but the pork didn't have much flavor even with the two different sauces. The mac and cheese was okay but not great. The queso was pretty good though. My friend that met me there ordered ribs and he said they were pretty good.
Since I had heard such rave reviews, I'll give them another chance eventually. Maybe I just caught them on a bad day.
My total was over $30 with a drink which wasn't too bad considering I got an appetizer. I hope to have a better review of them next time.
Other recent trips this last week or so:
Happy Mexican, Winchester Road - Barbecue nachos, and they're pretty darn good, my friend ordered shrimp and she said it was really good also.
Cafe Ole, Memphis - fish tacos and they were great!
Cinco de Mayo, Olive Branch - Chicken and rice, the "Happy Plate"
