Who takes the photos on the blog?
Both John and Tammilee take photos for the blog. 99% of the photos shared on the blog are taken by one of us.

We share our photos as much as possible so you can see what we see during our travels.

How we picked the Best Restaurants
We have lived in Gulf Shores, Alabama and love supporting local restaurants.
When we started writing Best Restaurant Guides we sit down and created a large list of every local restaurant we can find that fit our topic. I then dived into social media to see what each restaurant's menus and food look like and where they are located.
We are only sharing the best restaurants we eat at! If we have a negative experience at a restaurant we do not include them in a list unless it is so bad we need to give you a warning to save your money. Instead of listing them, we have place them on a list for return visits.
We understand that restaurants and staff have bad days and don't want to offer a negative review when it was a one off situation. We try to highlight the best local restaurants that we know you will enjoy.
We truly want to make sure that when you spend your hard-earned money you get the best experience possible.
