Come with us on our last stop with Trace to dine at Nick's Ristorante!
If you're looking for Italian specialties, homemade desserts, fine wine, and cocktails, you've come to the right place! After a little sampling, Nick's Ristorante's risotto dish definitely lives up to the hype! We think this spot would absolutely be Gordon Ramsay approved. 😉

It's time to move on to a place where the atmosphere has you feeling like you're right on the Gulf; our next stop with Trace is Sea Salt, downtown Huntsville's Urban Oyster Bar! 🐚
All these fresh seafood appetizers and entres will have you coming back for more. And the lobster roll? 10/10 would recommend!

Moving along on our culinary tour with Trace, time to stop by the Hippea Camper Food Truck!

The next stop on our culinary journey with Trace is The Brewers Cooperative! 🍻
We got to hear all about (and taste!) their delicious special during Culinary Month: Pecan-Crusted Chicken atop mixed greens with fresh strawberries, feta, fried leeks, and a raspberry vinaigrette. And we definitely can't forget to mention the special brew, their Pecan Amber Lager, to pair with the dish. No matter how you pronounce pecan, you're welcome to stop in and give both specials a taste!
