That's kind of a long drive for Southern cooking, but we are known to drive clear down to Sarasota when we need a fix of Amish-style cooking, so whose to say what is too long for you? You crave what you crave!
We used to go there, great fried chicken and southern fried steak. Understand they filed bankruptcy came out of it called Folks. Have not seen one in years.
