I came in planning to order a chicken salad sandwich since it was recommended by several friends, but when I arrived and saw the hot sandwich options, I couldn’t resist ordering the Shrimp Po’boy. I am from New Orleans and had a hankering for a taste of home. It did not disappoint!
The shrimp had been breaded in a well-seasoned batter, cooked to perfection, then drizzled with an authentic remoulade. It was served open faced atop fresh lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and sliced pickles. Mmm.
Although the bread was a little different than the typical french bread which is crunchy on the outside and soft and airy on the inside, this bread was soft and white all around with a little cornmeal on the bottom. The bread was honestly heavenly and I think anything you put on it would be delicious! I want to go back and see if they sell the poboy rolls individually for the next time I host a party and serve any sort of sandwiches.

I ordered the Bette's Boxed Lunch with the roast beef and provolone sandwich, on Sally Lunn bread. (Picture a hamburger bun, sheet cake style, cut in triangles.) . It comes with a deviled egg, and I chose the potato salad for my side, which was topped with a sweet pickle, and the peach "upcake" for my dessert. Washed the whole thing down with a Coca-Cola, and I was stuffed to the gills. I grew up loving PA Dutch cooking, but this southern stuff is a close second. "Momma wisely taught her daughters at an early age to learn to bake, knowing they'd need more than good looks to get them a...
Read moreFantastic new discovery for me. Wanted to grab lunch after a meeting before I drive to the airport to pick up someone.
This place is some serious homespun southern comfort.
Boxed Lunches, Pimento Cheese Sandwiches, Deviled Eggs, "Upcakes" and fresh baked bread and rolls. I was in heaven.
Here you order and pay at the counter and they call your name. Plenty of self serve seating or take your goodies home.
I ordered the Thanksgiving Dinner Sandwich Box Lunch. House Roasted Turkey, Stuffing, Whole Cranberry Sauce and mayo on house baked Sally Lunn Roll. Comes with a choice of sides, deviled egg and an Upcake.
This meal was simply fantastic!
Oh...Yes....The Upcakes are tender, moist upside down cupcakes iced on the sides and bottom....MORE ICING PER CAKE!
Southern geniuses at Dixie Picnic.
Bought an assorted half dozen Upcakes and a warm loaf of house made multi grain bread to take home.
I cannot wait...
