My parents love this place too — but it is really good.
Busy on the morning after Thanksgiving.
The menu.
Pretty darn excellent cap too.
Marsh Hen Grits + Pulled Pork Bowl. Smoked pork, grilled peppers, pickled fresnons, topped with a fried egg.
Salad.
Buttermilk pancakes.
Three-egg omelette. Smoked ham, tomato, spinach, cheddar.
Brisket Bennie. Black pepper hollandaise, pickled red onions, arugula, biscuits. OMG, this was actually pretty great — if heart stopping. Some seriously juicy brisket too.
Another view.
Ruthie’s wasn’t fancy, but dang that brisket bennie was good.
