After a decade and a half in television and radio, I stepped out of broadcasting and into what I thought would be a life in public relations. Instead, I began an odyssey to chase that final childhood dream and become a full time writer. Follow me.

Kat Robinson says if you want sushi in Little Rock, here are your seven top non-chain choices. Enjoy.

www.tiedyetravels.com
Maybe it started out as a fad, but sushi in Little Rock’s here to stay. The usual suspects are around -- Kobe Steakhouse, Sekisui, those sort of places. We’re lucky to have sushi chefs stirring up take-home options at Whole Foods, Fresh Market and Kroger these days. ...

I won't be by the machine non-stop. But I'll check in periodically and answer as many questions as I can. I'm assuming a number of people are becalmed today.

Kat Robinson suggests lunch at Forbidden City today. Thick egg drop soup, decently large lunch portions, and you can't beat $4.95-6.50 for a Chinese food sit-down lunch. Well, maybe you can, but this place is worth a revisit. Bottom of Park Plaza Mall. (501) 663-9099. They deliver, too.

Kat Robinson suggests Luigi's Pizza and Pasta in Bryant for lunch today. Cracker crust pizza, homemade pasta and great desserts. On I-30 westbound service road between Reynolds and Alcoa Roads (take the main Bryant exit). (501) 847-1110.

www.arktimes.com
The highly recommended Luigi’s Pizza and Pasta came up on our food wheel (I kid, there’s no food wheel, just a list of places people tell me I need to check out) this morning, so around noon we ventured to Bryant for lunch.

The pizza or the writing? Sadly, no on both counts, though I've been meaning to head to Nashville for a travelogue, probably the summer.

Kat Robinson suggests Belle Arti Restaurant in Hot Springs for lunch today. The Penne ala Norma is a great plate of eggplant and pasta and sauce and... oh, just a nice warm bit of goodness. Don't skip the tiramisu. On Central Avenue just off the shortest street in the world. (501) 624-7474.

www.tiedyetravels.com
There are a lot of good reasons to stay in Hot Springs this summer -- from outdoor fun on one of the area's three big lakes (Lake Hamilton, Lake Ouachita, and Lake Catherine) or at Magic Springs Crystal Falls Amusement and Water Parks -- to air conditioned action at Oaklawn Racing Park. ...

Kat Robinson has more of the story of the big burger... from Ed Walker's, indeed.

I have been waiting a long time to revisit Ed Walker’s Drive-In and Restaurant in Fort Smith. Some dear friends of mine took me there back in December 2007. They had something to show me, something massive.
