| - If you are coming here for your momma's southern cooking, then you have come to the wrong place, but if you have come here for your momma's cooking meets artisan flavors and the new southern twist you are at the right spot.
I ordered the Texas toast grilled cheese, Havarti and Pimento cheese, with a bowl of tomato soup. For some reason this dish was screaming at me. I am really not that much of a fan of the tomato soup thing, but it goes with grilled cheese so well.
G ordered the hamburger (well done) with the side of mac n cheese.
While we were waiting for our order, they brought out what could have been the star of the show. The amazing drop biscuit. This is not your cookie cutter biscuit. Its buttery, cheesy, a little salty, with just a hint of rosemary. Oh I want to jump in a tub of these delicious bundles of heavenliness. They also bring you the honey and that jam, damn the jam....why are you so good. You just know they have some grandma's in the back making this jam. It taste just like homemade jam. Did I mention the jam???
Ok, now back to the food. It did seem that the food did take a bit longer than what I would have expected to arrive. The restaurant was not extremely busy, so it seemed odd. We were in no rush, except for the food, and since we have no issues with conversation it was all good. While waiting I ordered the blueberry punch. It was so refreshing and tasted like it could have been an beverage that would have been a great mix of flavors to go with vodka. I'm so old that I remember when vodka did not come in flavors. It was just vodka. You had to flavor it yourself.
The meal came and the presentation was really nice. G bit into his hamburger immediately and said it was great. I did try a bite and I agreed, even though it was well done, they somehow were able to keep it juicy. He also had the side of Mac n Cheese and this is where momma's Mac n Cheese goes rogue. This side had some kick. It was pumped up with peppery goodness.
The only thing this side was missing was the crusty cheesy top that you usually get when you order Mac n Cheese. This side was definitely a new twist on an old favorite. There was also a side salad which was very fresh and colorful. It was topped with sunflower seeds and two of their dressing to try. Next was to dig into my amped up grilled cheese sandwich. The bread was hot and toasty and buttery. The hot inside Havarti and Pimento Cheese was oozing out, a cheesy perfection of a sandwich. I was trying to figure out how to duplicate this at home. Now the tomato soup. It was creamy, but not your typical Campbells retro creamy stuff. This soup had little bits and pieces of tomato in the soup. The soup was hot and amazing and wait, I don't even like tomato soup but this was so good. They give you such a large bowl there is no finishing the soup unless your just ravenous. I did find room for all of the sandwich. Not a crumb left on the plate.
I would be giving this visit 5 stars, but the wait time for the food was a bit on the lengthy side.
Did I mention the biscuit and jam? Just go for drinks and biscuits and life will be perfect, or at least seem that way.
