Soul food at its finest. I live in the neighborhood and have passed The King's Kitchen time and time again, so a few weeks ago I finally came in for lunch. It's in a great Uptown location just off Tyron and nestled on the corner across from the park. We sat along a window and ordered iced tea, received a variety of bread (love some cornbread!) and ordered our lunch entrees. I got flounder with a choice of 3 sides- I opted for mac and cheese, green beans and cole slaw. Y-u-m!
The best part about King's Kitchen is that it's for a good cause- from the website:
"We're a not for profit restaurant serving up southern cuisine made with fresh, local ingredients from right here in our community. And the proceeds go back to the community, helping to feed those in need. So, come on in. Because when you dine, the whole community thrives."
I'm a big fan of supporting those in need, so King's Kitchen gets an extra star for this alone. Looking forward to my return!
Fun tip: they have great pastries in the morning. My boyfriend got a spiced muffin and scones on his way to work- they should definitely advertise this, because they'd knock the competition out of the park.
