If not, you should visit. I included the mac and cheese as one of the five things you should consume this month, but there are plenty of other things that were quite delicious. When I went for lunch a couple of weeks ago, I sampled the following items:
White beans with ham (the special that day):
Candied yams:
Fried green tomatoes:
Mac and cheese:
Fried okra (cut and fried in house; not frozen):
Loaded baked potato with BBQ pork:
I was impressed by all of the things I tried, but I especially enjoyed the candied yams and the fried green tomatoes (in addition to the mac and cheese, of course). Neil St. has just updated the menu, so there are a bunch of new items to check out, too. I can’t wait to go back for new things.
