| - BEST ARNOLD PALMER OF MY LIFE!
small joint with everything fried and all the home fixin's you could ask for. We sat down and dined in, very low key/casual. The wait for the actual food was hard to bear but totally worth it once it came out.
We went right at noon and were the first ones in the place, which was a good thing because it got pretty full a few moments later. Many people also came into grab 'to go' orders so the staff was definitely busy in the back!
My brother got - Fried Pork Chops with green beans / fried okra
**If I were to redo my food, I'd get THAT! the green beans were unimaginably good, cooked with pork/bacon. Fried okra, hadn't had it in forever so it was AMAZING
I got Fried Chicken (dark meat) with mac/cheese and collard greens. The collard greens were a bit sweet, my brother said it was the best collard greens he had ever had (and he's not even a big fan of collard greens!). The mac and cheese was baked (just the way I like it with baked cheese on top). The chicken, delightful, but can't say it was anything CRAZY GOOD.
My friend got the fried catfish with fried okra and mashed potatoes. The catfish was fried to perfection and the inside was still very moist. Forgive me, but I think I decided I'm not the biggest catfish fan but his was still delicious! I unfortunately did not try the mashed potatoes, but I'm sure they were fabulous!
Every dish came with a small cornbread, which was perfectly moist and buttery. Again, I love the salty cornbread more so this was a little sweet for my liking, but it was still amazing.
In the end for our three meals, it came to about $37 and then add tip, so NOT BAD AT ALL. We were FILLED to the brim and with DELICIOUS FOOD AT THAT.
Can't wait to go back when I get back home! And next time I'm going to try to save some room for dessert, many of the 'to go' orders had mounds of cake slices and they looked friggin' delicious!
La'wan, so glad I found y'all! :)
