I highly recommend going to Goodson's on Wednesday at lunch for the Chicken and Dumplings. They are VERY good - grandma style dumplings that can't be beat. (more)

The food was good, Value nice. I just wish after the waiter sneezed into his hand, he might think about washing it next time, before serving food. Luckily, he wasn't the one who brought our food. The date was March 11 at... (more)
