Lunch was a quiet affair, with only one other couple and a group of 4 besides us. Perhaps their all-you-can-eat nights (Tuesday chicken, Wednesday ribs, Thursday beef short ribs, Friday steak) has a better turn out. Two waitresses working the scene, service was efficient and polite, can't fault them except one dropped a plate.

My hubby had the seafood gumbo which came in a tiny ramekin (think creme brulee), but apparently there was enough rice to make it filling enough for an appetiser. I had a much more visually appealing and stomach rewarding spinch salad with feta and pecans. Both well seasoned and made with fresh ingredients. Simple done well.
My spare ribs was an awesome 8-bone rack that covered the length of the plate, with a sticky, not-too-sweet sauce that was just enough to cover it without smothering and overpowering it. Which also makes for easy, clean eating without sauce and grease dripping everywhere. Extra sauce won extra points, though it probably wasn't necessarily as the ribs were so delicious with the right balance of flavouring. Slaw was good, crunchy, not too mayo-ey.
Pulled pork, awesome. Tender, juicy, no stringy bits, good sized portion (I don't like how set lunches automatically mean the sizes are halved in some other venues), lots of fresh condiments and melted cheese in there, fluffy bun where the bottom half was not drenched in oil/sauce/juice, and thin crispy chips to round it off.
I think I need to go back for the all-you-can-eat-and-died-and-went-to-heaven spare ribs or beef short ribs night.
