Yes, its success means it's now a small chain, but it's still worthwhile to stop in at the restaurant that started it all. Southern comfort food at its best—and sometimes with a twist—is the restaurant's calling, from luscious goat cheese grits to classic (and greaseless ) fried chicken and sweet potato pancakes. Many come for the breakfasts, which always start with complimentary biscuits and out-of-this-world house-made jam. If you head there for dinner and are feeling like a tipple, try the flight of locally-made moonshine (no joke), one variety of which is infused with bacon. The cafe is very popular and doesn't take reservations, so be prepared for a wait.
