"3"^^ . "2"^^ . . "Hubby and I are craving for soul food and found Kathy's here in Yelp. We were greeted by a friendly waitress. I ordered sweet tea while hubby had a can of soda. The sweet tea is hella sweet, just how hubby likes his tea but it's too sweet for me. We got our drinks right away. Hubby ordered fried pork chops with gravy on the side with rice and mac n cheese. I ordered the fried chicken with mac n cheese and sweet yam. First I was told that I can get the fried okra as one of my side dishes but the waitress returned and informed us that it needs to be ordered as appetizer. I want the fried okra so we ordered is as appetizer anyways. We waited for our food (including the appetizer) for half an hour... mind you we were the only customers there. The corn bread, fried okra and our meal arrived at the same time. The delay on the arrival of the food cost them a star. \n\nLet's talk about the quality of food:\n1) Corn bread - dry, nothing special just like what other reviewers said.\n2) Fried Chicken - not bad at all. They gave me 1 wing, 1 small leg and 1 small thigh. It was crispy on the outside but juicy on the inside.\n3) Mac & Cheese - not bad as well but I've had better. (Was stationed in Mississippi, Louisiana and Oklahoma so I've had quite a lot of great southern food experiences).\n4) Sweet Yam - its not bad as well but I was never a big fan of sweet yam anyways.\n5) Fried Pork chops - Hubby enjoyed them very much. It has great taste and perfectly cooked.\n6) Gravy - this was a little disappointing as it was lumpy and lack seasoning. It was bland. Thank God hubby didn't get the smothered pork chops coz I know he would've been disappointed because good gravy is really important for him. This cost them another star unfortunately.\n7) Fried Okra - was cooked well but nothing special. The batter would have been good if it was seasoned well.\n\nFor the quality of food and the portions, I have to agree with other reviewers...they are quite pricey. I don't think we will be back here again."^^ . "2013-08-19T00:00:00"^^ . . "1"^^ . "1"^^ . .
