This place has the atmosphere of a funeral parlor. Or maybe a cruise ship circa 1985. There are mirrors everywhere and lots of dated banquet chairs.
But who cares? I'm here to eat. The host and server are very friendly. Skip the beer (bud light on tap? Oooh exotic) and get a sweet tea.
They drop off some hush puppies while you review the menu. Perhaps these are not hush puppies, but just fried lumps of stale corn bread?
Menu is simple. Pork, beef, chicken, mac n cheese... Honestly there is not a.single vegetable! Not even greens? Must be legit. I order a combo plate of chicken and pork with mac n cheese.
Food arrives really quickly and there is a lot of it. The pork is okay. Not a lot of flavor but the bbq sauce , served on the side, is sweet and tangy and tomatoey and awesome. I pour it on.
The chicken is fine. Its not dry? I'm trying to be positive.
The mac n cheese is 80% cheese, 20% overcooked noodles. Honestly it tastes like a pile of fat. Im not drunk enough to enjoy it.
I only had 2 days in North Carolina. Sorry i wasted one of my BBQ outings here.
