| - I finally had the opportunity to actually sit and enjoy the food at Big Daddy's and I can't wait to go back. Until this point, I have been forced to survive on take-out Big Daddy's brought home by my hubs. Of course, he always brings home at least one of my favorites - sweet potato fries, fried pickles, or a milkshake, but the food tastes even better right from the kitchen.
My good friend and I decided to have a girls' lunch with three of our little people. We waited a few minutes for a table outside (the inside seemed a little too loud for chit chat and it was a gorgeous day!) and were instantly greeted by a super nice server. Although I have eaten food from Big Daddy's I had never held that large menu in my hand and was initially overwhelmed a bit - food, drink, food, drink? Ahhh! There was a little too much information to process so I settled on a glass of water and an order of fried pickles for the table. Almost before I could take a look back at the menu, the pickles appeared as if by magic. It truly seemed like a mere 2 minutes passed before our server took our order and the pickles and five plates appeared at our crowded table.
The pickles were the perfect way to start our meal but I have to admit that my friend and I faltered miserably when the time came to order our food. Pathetically, we both ordered the same salad - the Texicana - because it really sounded amazing. Chopped greens, black beans, corn, shredded tortilla chips, and chicken... doesn't that sound like a great Saturday afternoon meal? Our girls were more adventurous - one split the salad with me and ordered a side of fries (I like her style), another child ordered the chicken fingers - they looked and tasted great, and the third child ordered sliders. The sliders came out a little bit over done but I'm sure it is hard to cook those little burgers for the kiddos.
If you are looking for a family friendly restaurant, pay attention: The kids meals were served with a huge side of fruit - I would bring my children back to this restaurant simply because I was so impressed with the side of fruit - there must have been six different types of fruits arranged on a decent sized plate. A healthy mom's dream... The side of fruit totally offset the plate of fried pickles that started off the meal - I am sure of it.
We ordered a milkshake to take home to dad - my turn to be the one bringing home the take-out ... I ordered him the chocolate caramel milkshake - it was a special that day and it was delicious. I have had a very hard time finding a decent milkshake since moving to Charlotte and this is the best I have found so far. I am looking forward to enjoying the patio again - and hopefully being a little more adventurous with the menu!
