    10 out of 10 highly recommend. From the perfectly fried not too salty pork chop; the perfect balance of sweet and soft candied yams; to the dressing that tastes like granny’s from back in the day; and last but not least the subtly sweet and creamy Mac and cheese. When I say I caught an instant food coma honey I mean straight out at the table.

    I usually don't order chitterlings out from a restaurant. I live out South towards the lakefront. I ordered a small chitterlings and the meatloaf dinner. It was fye, next time I'm ordering the large chitterlings. Everything was delicious. Thank you Chef Daddy's Cook.
