"A few miles off the highway in one of North Carolina’s most historic towns, the Hen & The Hog is perfect for road-weary travelers in search of a slightly more elevated meal. Open for lunch Tuesday - Friday and dinner Thursday - Saturday, the restaurant offers a rotating menu that pulls heavily from the surrounding Eastern Carolina farmland. Options include a pimento cheese and bacon sandwich, shrimp and grits, and a Southern-styled wedge salad with pimento cheese dressing." - Matt Lardie
