Fried Green Tomatoes in Macon

 Hello all 

 I wonder if you miss me as much as I miss writing every other day, but I think I am going to go twice a week right now.

I will publish every Wednesday and every Sunday and I hope that you all will continue to share with friends and please please keep reading. 

I have many great things on the horizon

I decided to review Fried Green Tomatoes today (not the food, the restaurant) because I was in the mood for some fried chicken. Now I will tell you that fried chicken is probably the last thing I need, but once in awhile everyone has to have fried chicken . Am I right or am I right ?

I have issues with the lack of fried chicken places in North Macon (Popeyes on the way) so I have has to look around. Does anyone seriously eat KFC anymore because I think its disgusting. 

I will say that every time I eat at  Fried Green Tomatoes the fried chicken is strong I had it today and I can give the same report. The flavor and texture of the skin and the meat is always the same and I think most folks would be pleased with it.

I try to find sides that I like and today it was corn and squash casserole. If you like buttery corn niblets then you will probably like this corn. The squash casserole is also fairly impressive, with tons of cheese and I think it was rice to offset the broccoli. 

The corn bread and sweet tea are also spot on not to mention the excellent service. 

The problem I have here is that I have tried almost every entree on the menu and everything else has been a disappointment. The Salisbury steak tastes like a frozen hamburger with a few spices on it and it will not be enough for a normal male. I can get a better fried pork chop at a gas station down the street and I am sorry but I have not been impressed by the beef tips or baked chicken.

When we get to the veggies or sides, the mashed potatoes are plentiful but very heavy and the gravy is definitely a mix of some kind. The macaroni and cheese is average at best.

I guess you noticed I didn't mention any veggies because I don't eat most of the ones they have.

I feel like the restaurant could be better if they just showed some TLC to the food. I don't think its the manager of the store though, I think it is probably the owners.

So in closing, if you want fairly good fried chicken and you are on the north side of town, this is not a bad option. Try it and let me know what you think

  2. What needs more TLC, is thir customer service. I have been there twice, and twice at Milledgeville location. Both 1st visits were basically yelled at because we were new and didn't know the ends and outs. Gave both a 2nd try, and nope, not just one or two, but all front end service staff were rude, short tempered with customers. All were basically mad that there were actually customers, like customers ruined their day by just coming inside to eat.
