ReutersTravel Postcard: 48 Hours in Birmingham, AL

If they took the hike at Ruffner Mountain to the overlook at 1, and made it to Vulcan by 2:30, they must've sprinted.

Also, The Irondale Cafe went to hell after that movie. There are a LOT better meat-and-threes to be had. Nikki's West being one.

1. It's Lakeview District, not Lakeshore.

2. You don't go to Marty's for Rock and Roll....you go to Marty's for burgers.

That article reads like someone spent 30 minutes googling Birmingham and combined everything into that list

And there is no way you could go to Hot and Hot to eat dinner AND be somewhere else in an hour and a half. The only dinners you can get in under an hour at Hot and Hot is in a glass at the bar.

This is made up for their tourism guide.

Niki's West. Oh yes. Classic Birmingham.
