Aunt Joyce Rules!

Twice in a row now, Aunt Joyce's chicken and dumplins have run away with the "favorite food at the farm" vote. This is no surprise to us, because we've all eaten them.
Some folks from the city might call what we cook here "comfort food." We just call it "food." But, by golly, if we make comfort food, Aunt Joyce's chicken and dumplins are the "luxury food." It doesn't get much more comfortable than this.
Of course, the only problem is, she only comes in to cook the chicken and dumplins on Wednesdays, for lunch. If you're a fan, mark that day on your calendar to come visit us.

Hurry on Wednesday!

Wednesdays are special here at the restaurant, because that's when Aunt Joyce drops by to make her chicken and dumplins. These aren't just any old chicken and dumplins. This is Aunt Joyce's special secret recipe. Don't ask her to see the secret ingredient, because she'll hide it behind her back! She saw you trying to look! We may not know what that special magic is that she puts in it, but we do know this is the best chicken and dumplins that you'll ever clean your plate for. Ask for a mess of turnip greens and a wedge of cornbread on the side, and you have what may be the perfect Southern lunch. Just don't dawdle on Wednesday -- word has gotten around that it's chicken-and-dumplin day. The lunch crowd usually empties the pot.
