I\u00a0went with the beef tips with rice, double collard greens that are LOADED with tender pork, broccoli &amp; rice casserole, green beans, and sweet yams. Let me tell you \u2014 that plate was exceptional. I\u2019ve had essentially the same thing every time I\u2019ve been and it always \u2018slaps\u2019\u2013as the kids would say.<\/p>\n<p>The beef tips were tender and well seasoned, the gravy had depth without drowning the meat, and the rice soaked it up just right. The collards had that slight edge of smoky bitterness balanced by whatever magic Doc\u2019s put in there. (I always add a whole bunch of that sweet pepper sauce) The casserole was creamy, comforting, full of broccoli and soft rice and cheese. And the yams \u2014 a deliciously lightly sweet, warm hug for your taste buds!
