Ladybird Taco

I love being an owner of Ladybird because of the communities we get to be a part of–both our team members and the neighborhood. We strive to enable a life-giving community, and we are thankful to have that in Mountain Brook. I am particularly thankful for the group of regulars I have had the privilege to get to know. My favorite meals to order are the Number Four (add potato), Number Seven on corn and a cortado.

Jemison Trail

In the business of a restaurant, it is such a gift to walk five minutes down the street and be immersed in nature. It calms me, and it has become a favorite place to have walking meetings.

The Lighting of the Christmas Tree in Lane Parke

We opened Ladybird in February 2023. I remember being at the lighting of the Christmas Tree in 2022, just a few months before we were going to open. It was special to feel a sense of community and support as we were embarking on this adventure of opening a business in the community.

Golden Age Wine

I love Golden Age Wine. I love being in the space, and I love knowing the thought and intention that went into designing and building it. The staff does a great job of creating meaningful experiences for everyone.

Date Nights

One of my favorite memories in Mountain Brook was a date night with my wife at Abhi after we had our second kiddo. We hadn’t been out together in a minute, and we just had an amazing time with incredible food.
