Downtown gives one a lot of options. Tunica and a rental car is another housing option as the casinos are there. Downtown is a food fan's DREAM. One that should get more publicity is Huey's (across from the Peobody). Sometimes one just wants a burger and a beer. That is what they do (with great steak fries) and they do it as well as anyone! Huey's has been a tradition here for nearly a half century. Central BBQ is awesome, Interstate BBQ is awesome, Gus's and Uncle Lou's Fried Chicken are a damned religious experience.
