A Feast in North Carolina: 7 Must-Try Spots with Generous Portions

✨✨Living in North Carolina doesn’t come cheap,but these 7 spots serve up heaping portions that are totally worth every penny. 💘 Check them out!💙 ✨V's Kitchen 📍 Durham 🍽️ Oxtails - $22 Three of us split one oxtail rice bowl, which came with two side dishes and a cornbread. 👀 💞💞The three big chunks of oxtail were tender enough to fall off the bone and packed with flavor. My kid even gnawed through a whole piece and begged to take some back to New York. 🎊🎊 🌟🌟The sides were just so-so, and the cornbread was a bit dry for our liking. ✨Pinky's 📍 Charlotte 🍔 Pinky's Burger - $13 A local hit that’s even been visited by Guy Fieri, famous for its pepper cheese burger. 🌈🌈 🌟🌟The two of us were blown away by the massive portions—the sides were practically as big as the main dish! 💧💧 The burger features a brioche bun stuffed with a double thick beef patty, melted cheese, and crumbled meat bits. 🏖️🏖️ 🖼️One bite is incredibly satisfying, though it can get a bit greasy. We loved the fried zucchini slices on the side—crisp, thin-skinned, and juicy.  ☃️Bar-B-Q King✨ 📍 Charlotte 🍗 Half Fried Chicken - $13 This spot only offers drive-in service, with orders taken via intercom—no indoor dining available. 💞💞 🍸🍸Every parking spot is equipped with an intercom and a small table, so you never have to leave your car; your food will be brought right to you once it’s ready. We ordered their signature half chicken with dipping sauce, which came with fries, coleslaw, and a dinner roll.🌻 🐵🐵It was the perfect size for the whole family to share. The chicken was juicy and cooked to perfection, and their special sauce cut through the greasiness wonderfully.🍐🎼  Pho Hien Vuong😍 📍 Greensboro 🍜 Combo No. 2 & No. 4 This Vietnamese spot is said to be top-notch—it’s so popular that it’s expanded to three locations. We got there at 6 PM on a weekday, and the parking lot was already full. 🌹🌹🌹 🌹🌹Three of us split two bowls of pho, which were loaded with ingredients, especially slices of meat. The broth was light and fresh, but it was just average and not hot enough. 🍏 Unless you’re craving some authentic Asian flavors, you can probably skip this one.🍍 N.C. Seafood🍪🍼 📍 Raleigh 🍽️ Seafood Combo - $28 A budget-friendly seafood fast-food spot inside the Raleigh Farmers Market. It gets busy during lunch hours, but the turnover is quick. 🍷 The fried cod and scallop combo costs $30, but the portions are huge enough to feed the whole family.🌭🌭 Home Plate Restaurant🌰🌰 📍 Durham 🍽️ Grilled Chicken Plate - $10 A cozy Southern diner near Duke University that draws crowds during peak hours. 🍫🍫 🥯🥯The staff are super enthusiastic, and they keep the food coming fresh off the grill nonstop. The whole family shared a grilled chicken plate and an extra side of pork chops. 🥒🥒 Every dish was served piping hot and tasted simply delicious—my daughter especially loved the baked beans.🥩🥩 Beasley's Chicken + Honey🥘 📍 Raleigh 🧇 Chicken + Waffle - $23 You can’t visit the South without trying chicken and waffles, so we checked out this highly-rated spot downtown.🥒 🍡🍡The best part? You can customize the parts of the chicken and the quantity, which was a huge plus for the two of us who wanted a mix of white and dark meat. 🍣 The fried chicken had a thin, crispy crust and juicy meat inside, while the warm waffles were fluffy and soft. The tangy coleslaw on the side was a nice little surprise too.🌲🌲 #GlobalFoodieAdventure #StreetFoodExplorer #NorthCarolinaEats #CharlotteFood #CharlotteFoodie #NorthCarolinaTravel #RaleighEats #CharlotteFinds
