It's a little hard to find - in the alley behind 52 S. Second Street in downtown Memphis. |
After Sun Studio and having a good time with the
Flying Elvi, Lil Dude Troll had a hankering for some of that world famous barbecue Memphis is famous for. There were a number of choices, but
Rendezvous Barbecue was the winner.
And the verdict? Lil Dude says it's a bit pricey and if you grew up on Texas-style BBQ, be prepared for a different taste. The meat was good. The beans were very good. The slaw, not so much. None of the 3 humans at the table ate the slaw after a taste or two. The daddy-human called it "chunky vinegar." All in all, a pretty good meal, but at $12.95 for a sliced-beef plate, plus $2 for a drink, plus tax and a tip, that's about $20 per person when all is said and done and $20 for lunch makes them a bit too proud of their food in Lil Dude's humble opinion. Your opinion may vary.

The restaurant is downstairs in a converted basement. |

Post diving in. No meat or beans were left over, but plenty of that yellow slaw remained - must be an acquired taste. |
