Rounded out a weekend of good friends and good food with a stop at Haberdish. A very cool location in NoDa, and they do a great job of decorating along their southern theme.
Dinner consisted of hush puppies (appetizer), two pieces of friend chicken with fried okra and kale grits on the side, and the lemon tart (dessert). The hush puppies were delicious, but I think it's probably hard to screw that up. My favorite part was the fried chicken. Two good sized pieces (a breast and a wing) that were so SO good. Not too much breading, thick, and juicy - full of flavor. The fried okra was also a show-stopper. I wasn't a huge fan of the kale grits, but I have a bias against kale for no good reason! I'm not usually a big dessert person, but the lemon tart was great.
The service was not inattentive, but was slower than I would have liked, hence the four stars. We ended up spending close to two hours! Overall a great experience though.
