New to the Chester area & there isn't many good take out options in the city aside from the local Chinese restaurants, a couple diners & your typical chains establishments.
Probably like most of Aunt B's new customer's you've heard about her infamous "Game Changer" dish & are eager to try out her special sauce.
My cousin & I stopped by early Sunday afternoon & placed our order for (2) Game Changers over vegetable fried rice (2) cornbread & 2 soft drinks.
We were told our wait time would be about 20 minutes which ended up being more like an hour. The food came to $36. The portion was decent & the food looked & smelled great!
However the "Game Changer" simply did not live up to the hype for me personally. The dish came with salmon flank over vegetable fried rice topped with about a tablespoon of crab meat, 4 large shrimp & Aunt B's special sauce. Everything was lightly seasoned. The sauce was mayonnaise based sweet & savory (slightly too sweet) but still relatively decent.
Does Aunt B's "Game Changer" dish actually change the game? No. Maybe here in the small city of Chester it does since as I mentioned the options for decent eateries here are extremely slim to none.
Unfortunately I've sampled such a variety of these trendy mayo based sauces that there wasn't any "Wow factor" that set Aunt B's dish or her sauce apart from similar dishes I've tried.
The vegetable rice was the highlight of the dish for me; Loaded with lightly sauteed vegetables, onion, celery, red pepper, carrot, string bean, broccoli & corn. The cornbread was a moist cake-like dessert reminding me of my Nana's take on this traditional soul food staple.
Aunt B's menu was relatively large offering a range of other soulful dishes from Fish & Creamy Grits for breakfast & namely her Cabbage & Craby Crab cakes for dinner.
There's no question that Aunt B tells one heck of a story of how her culinary vision came to life but don't buy so far into the hype that your expectations are as unrealistic as mine were.

Read moreAfter reading the great reviews online, I was very excited to try their foods. I ordered the fried chicken platter with yams and potato salad. The chicken was absolutely delicious, but I was very disappointed with the yams and potato salad. My daughter had mac and cheese with yams. I also, was very disappointed with her mac and cheese......including my potato salad. They were very bland........ the yams tasted and looked straight out of the can.
We both thoroughly enjoyed the fried chicken. Typically, when I order soul food, I relish the side foods much more, and this was not, home cooked southern style food.
I have no idea,how people have given such high ratings. Lastly, I appreciated that the meal included cornbread and a free soda. If I decide to visit again, it will only be for the chicken and or the turkey wings That I wanted to try. Sorry, but it just didn't home at...
Read moreDrove from Delaware to try Aunt B's based upon the You Tube JL Jupiter review. The young lady at the counter was very friendly. I had a big order, but she patiently took her time to check to ensure that everything I ordered was there. The atmosphere was inviting as the sound of laughter and the good smelling food greeted me at the door. Although busy, Aunt B flashed such a warm, beautiful smile when she looked up. None of the staff seemed rushed or hurried, just hard working people, dedicated people. I absolutely loved the atmosphere! The Game Changer definitely lives up to its name! Salmon was moist, flavorful. Chicken wings were good. EVERYTHING was seasoned just right! Nothing was salty or over seasoned. Sides were good. I was pleasantly surprised. You have to try the game changer it will change everything! I will be back. Congratulations on your...
