If you are looking for good old fashioned home cooking, this is the place in Woodland. The Sunday Buffet is addictive, fried chicken, mashed potatoes and grave, pot roast with dark brown gravy, hamburger steak, baked beans, black-eyed peas, butter beans, chicken and dumplings, country ham, cucumber salad, dreamy pink marshmallow salad, jello salad, red ripe sliced tomatoes, chicken salad, Cole slaw, and a table full of just baked cakes and pies. Yes, there is Chess Pie. All for $20 for adults and less for children. Everyone is made to feel like family by Barbara the owner who knows everybody and everything about our fair village. A lifetime resident of Woodland she never felt the need to venture far from home. So many people here grew up together, went to school together, and have hearts full of love.
There is a group of locals who occupy the "Knowledge Table" at 6AM during the week. I found them so helpful when we first moved here. The cook arrives at 6:30 and feeds the working folks while the retirees wait their turn. The biscuits are light as a feather. Bacon crisp and ham flavorful for eggs or an omelet.
It's so nice places like this aren't replaced by a Mac-breakfast! read more
