Helen - Review - Downtown - Birmingham - The Infatuation

"Have you tried using a devastatingly tender short rib dripping in a jalapeño cream sauce to close a business deal? Well, you should. And you can at Helen, a polished Southern dining room and charcoal grill with recipes from the chef’s grandmother on the walls, during a power lunch or nicer dinner. While you’re at it, consider adding on another meaty entree like a bone-in pork chop, a lamb porterhouse, or a dry-aged ribeye—they do this type of stuff extraordinarily well. Throw in a few starters—like the fantastically doughy warm angel biscuits with whipped cane syrup butter and delicate scallop crudo—along with a bottle of wine, in the name of ABC: Always. Be. Closing." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
