Rendezvous Revisited
One thing you have to look forward to each week is where the restaurant of the week has been showcased, like on Man vs. Food or Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives; and how it stacks up on my “Five Little Piggies” rating scale. In other words, is it a ‘must-visit?’ That being said, I apologize for my omission of what makes Charles Vergo’s Rendezvous “pop culture cuisine,” and how I rated our visit from last week’s post. Therefore, here is a quick post re-visiting this Memphis BBQ mecca.
The first place I saw it was on as special that Travel Channel featured called “Barbecue Paradise” (part of the ‘Food Heaven’s’ series). More recently, I saw it featured on a show Adam and I love and NEVER miss…“Man vs. Food.” Below is a clip of when Adam Richman went to Rendezvous, hopefully it will give you an even better taste of what Rendezvous has to offer!

When I began this blog, Adam and I thought that I needed to give each restaurant we visited a rating to fully describe how I felt about each location, hence….”Five Little Piggies.” I must credit my husband with the idea of “Five Little Piggies,” because as he explains it “there are going to be those restaurants that you just want to eat like a little piggy.” Not to mention, I love pigs in general so why not? 🙂 But I digress; You can visit that section of the blog for a full breakdown of the rating system, but the important things to keep in mind are signature dish, taste, ambiance, service, and price. So, in the case of Charles Vergo’s Rendezvous, they receive Five Little Piggies!
