I've been going to this Decatur institution since The Indigo Girls, Scott Peacock, and Edna Lewis made this a destination. New Southern Cuisine, hip atmosphere, and a glass of wine, work for me. Lunch is always yummy, especially the grilled shrimp on toasted bread. Get a slice of that Carmel Apple Cake, and see how fast you fall asleep, when you get back to the office. But Tuesday nights are special. Peacock has perfected a fried chicken receipe,learned from his mentor, the late Edna Lewis, the soulfood queen! He soaks the chicken overnight in buttermilk, and tosses lightly in peppered flour, and fries in a skillet! Oh Ms. Scarlet, you don't know what you are missing. Come early, unless you want my chicken bones!
Pros: Scott Peacock's Fried Chicken, Carmel Apple Cake
Cons: Parking Can Be Tricky, If Driving!
