About
Some will recognize the black-eyed peas, fried catfish, and mustard greens served at this casual and bright spot as soul food. Others will recognize it as southern regional cooking that has not been subjected to the flavor-of-the-day culinary spotlight. The food here is delicious in an unfussy way that has nothing to do with the care in its preparation. Any place that can turn out staples such as cornbread, hush puppies and bread pudding this consistently delicious is obviously concerned with doing things right. The atmosphere is unhurried and friendly and the decor as unpretentious and welcoming as the grits and eggs for breakfast. Note: Cash only.
