"Audrey and Locust are both run by high-profile chefs, and both serve food using techniques and ingredients that could feel stuffy, but actually end up being really approachable. You’ll enjoy creative Appalachian-inspired dishes like pit-cooked roast chicken with Alabama white sauce, cornmeal fried catfish with pickled green tomato tartar sauce, and a paw paw and banana pudding for dessert. Just know, if you didn’t get directions straight to Audrey, you’d likely miss it altogether, or assume it was some sort of posh office building. But through the heavy wooded door and past the freshly-cut stacks of logs for the oven, you’ll find plenty of open tables and comfy booths waiting for you." - ann walczak
