I wouldn't consider Southern food exotic, but here in the Northeast (Boston suburbs) it's not found all over. I definitely enjoy pulled BBQ or fried chicken, but around our town those come mostly from chain restaurants, with a few exceptions in some cities. So, yes, for us it would be a reason to go to Homecomin'. Currently trying to decide between there and Boathouse...as seafood on the other hand is on every corner from Boston or Cape Cod to Maine in these parts. The atmosphere looks cool at Boathouse, but then there's the moonshine and fried chicken at Homecomin'...decisions, decisions!I haven't been to Homecomin' yet. I was considering it for our DS night in 2 weeks, but then I looked at the menu. We live in Richmond, Virginia. Pimento cheese, deviled eggs, pulled BBQ, fried green tomatoes, fried chicken, etc, are on almost every restaurant menu in my city. We even have little mom and pop places that specialize in fried catfish sandwiches and collard greens. I ended up choosing The Boathouse.
Homecomin' gets rave reviews on the Dis. Is Southern food really exotic to folks in other parts of the country? Or is Homecomin' just exceptionally good?
I really love BONGO'S....Wanting to know everyone's favorite sit down restaurant for 2 adults??
Haven't had STK in Disney but the STK here in DC was not good. Only open a bit more than 2 years before closing down.Any list worth reviewing would include:
Paddlefish
Boathouse
Homecoming
STK
EDITED: A Ghirardelli chocolate ice cream sundae topped with marvelous whipped cream used to be the family-favorite treat in Downtown Disney. But since it has become Disney Springs, we include a stop at Vivoli Il Gelato & Genachery as our newest decadence. And we cannot eat these treats and eat at our favorite sit-down meal on the same excursion.
