After the tornado hit Tuscaloosa in 2011, so many businesses and restaurants closed because they were in ruins. Tuscaloosa has recently started to rebuild the area and make great additions to the city. Although we have so many more options to dine out, shop and places to spend our free time, Tuscaloosa would be even better with these six locations.
Whole Foods
Yes, we have Fresh Market, but c’mon. Whole Foods is the real deal. If we had a Whole Foods, I can guarantee I’d eat five meals a week there (if I’m not broke).
New York-Style Bagels
Seriously, why has no one opened a New York-style bagel shop? Bagels are the ultimate hangover food. The line would be miles long on weekend mornings.
Hot Yoga Studio
Keep that freshman 20 off while keeping your stress levels under control. This is the perfect way to sweat out all that tension from school and work.
Sushi Burritos
We have so many places to get Mexican and sushi in Tuscaloosa. But nowhere to get a sushi burrito. Imagine a place where you could literally make your own sushi roll but then pick it up and eat it like a big wrap? Talk about heaven in your mouth.
Whataburger
This is the one that frustrates me most. A 24-hour Whataburger would be the ultimate late-night munchie place.
Paint ‘n’ Sip
A Paint ‘n’ Sip is somewhere people can go to sip on some fine wine while painting on canvas. It would be the best way to spend quality time with friends or family while having fun.
