Lunch at Felicia Suzanne’s

Felicia Suzanne’s does a Friday Lunch to jumpstart your foodie weekend. A few coworkers and I went to check it out, and I’ll let the photos explain.

There was a Field Green Salad, tossed in sweet cane vinaigrette with Tennessee feta cheese, spiced pecans, and fresh, sweet figs:

Noah Wyle, Alan Alda, and Matt Dillon Dine at Felicia Suzanne’s in Memphis

Diners at Felicia Suzanne’s in downtown Memphis this week weren’t just treated to the restaurant’s signature milk and cookies.

Saturday night, restaurant-goers were surprised to see Noah Wyle, a former cast member on ER and currently in town filming Nothing But the Truth, walk in and head to the kitchen. A few minutes later, Emmy winner and Oscar nominee Alan Alda walked in. Matt Dillon came in next, and he, too, walked to the kitchen.

Apparently the Nothing But the Truth stars have been dining at the Main Street eaterie for several days. Unfortunately, Kate Beckinsale and Angela Bassett never showed.
