Out of the Ashes: Delta Diners makes a comeback!

We had a few new players this month, Philip & Sara--imports from Boston--and Glenn--back from 2 yrs in Iraq. We set our course for an unknown destination, Posecai's, in charming Greenville, MS. Some were skeptical about this place, since the website indicated it was sushi night (NOTE sushi is never to be ordered in the Delta), but we wanted to impress upon the rookies that the evening is mostly about the drive through the Delta, rather than the chow at the other end. We lucked out on both. There was a water issue, so we drank bottled water with imported ice, and coffee was out of the question. Our waiter, unnamed to my memory, was very gracious with our group. Although he denied me coffee.
My dinner was this delicious Eggplant "boat" filled with shrimp and lump crab meat. And a side of spinach.
