| - We were a large party celebrating my grandmother's birthday. One reason we came was because of the generous background of the restaurant, and the fact that they use their profits for a good cause.
They gave us a private area for our meal, which was really nice except that we were split into 2 tables. Our waitress was really nice and attentive, but slow. She struggled to open our wine bottles, but she worked really hard to please us. She had much more patience with my parents, who could not pick a wine, than I would have. She also lit the candles on the cake we brought in and cut it for us. I really liked her, even though she would disappear for a long time. We ended up spending 3 hours there for dinner.
My food was good. I loved the cornbread, and the biscuits were great! I loved the moscato that we ordered by the bottle. I had the sweet potato fritters, which were really good especially with honey. I ordered the pork chop, which was good considering I don't usually eat that. I recently discovered brussel sprouts (because my mom didn't like them, I ate them for the first time this year at the age of 23!) and they were made with vinegar I believe, the macaroni and cheese was good, and I don't remember what else I had. The portion sizes were small, but really I think they're what normal people eat and we should stop expecting plates that feed 4. NC has a high enough obesity rate.
