And with one of their designer salads such as the Knife and Fork Caesar or our favorite, the Spinach with chopped hard boiled egg, the Mac and Cheese is a meal for two. That and a bottle of wine and it feels like you’re being a little naughty. No visit would be complete without the Friend Green Tomatoes (shown).
