โ€œWhatcha hungry for?โ€ asks Doug Ballinger, manager of the Riverside Grill, a breakfast and lunch spot located in the BP on Riverside Drive. Customers behind me face the same question, and like me, they find itโ€™s not easy to decide.

Riverside Grill offers traditional Southern fare on the cheap, from frog legs to chicken wings, baked beans to banana pudding, fried okra to fresh, homemade biscuits.

I decide to go with the daily special, and since Iโ€™ve shown up on a Thursday, a โ€œRiverside Rouletteโ€ day, the featured plate is left up to chance.
