| - I LOVE to cook! I was raised by a Black Southern grandma, so I can cook soul food. But, sometimes, it is nice to get a break and let someone else do the work. I'd recently read a nice review done by Heidi Knapp-Rinella for the RJ and was excited. I took my family here tonight and it was just an okay experience. The hotwater cornbread was the best i've had in a long time. The hushpuppies, greens, waffles, and fries were great, too. The chicken was nice and crispy, but like in so many places, the meat wasn't seasoned. (I usually marinate my chicken overnight in a buttermilk brine prior to frying). Our server, Patrice, was awesome, very friendly and attentive. What ruined the experience for me? I was checking out and when I'd informed the person that I didn't want to use my PIN but wanted to process the order as a credit, I was informed that I would have to pay a 3.5% surcharge. EXCUSE ME?!! pay for using my own card? And she had the audacity to reply, "well, it's not that much, only a few dollars." SERIOUSLY? then why are you trying to pass on this cost to your customers? For this reason alone, I will NEVER come back here. What a crappy attitude!
