While I like the buttery, crunchy crumble, the spiced peach filling was a little too sweet. Cut down on the sugar when macerating the peaches & it would be perfect! PS: I want that cast iron skillet! haha!

Chicken & Waffles - Chicken soaked in buttermilk for 24 hours, seasoned & deep-fried. The end result? Crispy on the outside, tender & juicy inside. The waffle, though crispy, was too pale & airy for my liking. Drizzled some bourbon maple butter sauce for a sweet-savoury combination!

Perfect as a side dish or eaten on its own, slathered with butter & maple syrup. I kind of like this soft, dense and sweet cornbread. Brownie point would be given if it was served with a slab of butter than a dollop to balance the sweetness.

Blackened Pork Collar atop a bed of mashed potatoes, fine beans & bacon bits, drizzled with thyme & garlic cream sauce. Ideally, pork collar doesn't dry out easily as it's slightly fatty but the pork collar we had was slightly dry. Then again, we took quite awhile to take photos, so that might contribute to the dryness. I like the mashed potatoes thou'. Slightly grainy and infused with garlic butter. The bacon bits added a touch of smokiness to the mashed potatoes and I can't help but to eat a few more mouthfuls.

Fried mini donuts glazed with maple syrup & topped with bacon bits. Love this sweet and savoury combination! 😋🍩

What do you get when you combine lemonade with sweet tea? That's right! Arnold Palmer, a refreshing thirst quencher named after the legendary American golfer of the same name.

Pulled Pork Sliders - BBQ pulled pork with coleslaw in toasted bun. 🍔🍔🍔

Home-made pie with vanilla bean ice-cream instead of fig & honey ice-cream stated on the menu. People with sweet tooth will love this nutty pie! PS: Would love to try the fig & honey ice cream thou'...

HUGE Burger with sparklers, the new birthday cake? 1.6 pound of beef patty, 1 pound of crispy, southern buttermilk fried chicken, 1 pound of slow cooked pulled pork, generous serving of coleslaw, lettuce & tomato wedged between a 9 inch bun = The Beast Burger. Served with a bucket of fries. The burger's so HUGE it's twice the size of my face!

The mother of all burgers, indeed.
