I saw a couple of reviews online for this place so we decided to try it out for ourselves. This restaurant is in old town Humble. Just being on the street makes you feel like you've stepped back 50 years in time. The restaurant itself is decorated with nostalgic signs. This place is really big with plenty of seating. It wasn't very crowded on this Thursday night. Our waiter brought over a small cast-iron skillet of cornbread, fresh rolls & cinnamon butter. (Right then I KNEW I was gonna like this place).
I ordered the vegetable plate which consisted of any four veggies from the menu. My choices were: black-eyed peas, mashed potatoes, sauteed cabbage and grilled squash. And of course I had to get some GRAVY on the side. I have to test the gravy. Its part of my J-O-B as a food critic. Sheesh, you people act like I WANT to eat a bowl of gravy. Gimme a break. My vegetables were hearty & filling. Everything was good.
My friend got the club sandwich with home-made chips. The chips were great. The sandwich was exceptional also. No complaints here.
Of course, I was so full I could have popped (I looked like that blueberry girl on Willie Wonka). But I must trudge on for my followers. So I asked to see the dessert menu. My, oh my. There was tons of decadent stuff on there like home-made banana pudding & fried ice-cream. I chose the Italian Cream Cake. And let me tell you...it was a little slice of ecstasy.
Our waiter was very helpful & friendly.(Shout-out to Bruno!)
