| - Comfort food. It's a name we all know, it's a special kind of comfort that fills not only a longing of the soul (soul food) but fills a belly in need of wholesome, flavorful sustenance.
If you know southern cooking, if you like deep fried -and even if you don't, there will be something on this menu to titillate your southern senses.
Keeping it green with a southern twist:
The heirloom tomato salad. It's the peppered cornbread croutons, cured strawberries and ricotta that make this a unique and southern take on a local favorite.
Big eats and deep fried fun:
Shaved farm raised catfish with charred kohlrabi kraut. The cornmeal is mixed with garlic, cayenne and pepper to give it an extra kick, and dip that into the pickled mustard seed tartar sauce and it's absolute perfection.
Fried chicken skin po boy. Very crispy, very deep fried, peppery, and basted with a simple yet delicious hot sauce aoli. The tang comes from the jalapeƱo slaw.
Little eats but big sensory experience.
Chicken fat biscuit.
Need I say more...
Okay, I will. It's certainly nothing you would expect to find in the south, it's a decadent order of two quarter pound sized biscuits with a healthy dollop of local crow's dairy butter pecan goat cheese. It looks like gravy, and it's anything but. Sprinkled with candied pecan and honey, this unique spin on the biscuit and gravy staple of American breakfasts is so uniquely memorable.
This is a spot you go when you want to be very very full, and you will definitely want ti arrive during a slow time, like 4p on a weekday - before people start arriving after work. Try a little or try a lot, try five different "little eats", you will be so very happy you came.
