"When you have a hankering for some down-home Southern country-style cooking, then only Soul Food will do. It's a comforting kind of food your mama used to make… or wish she would! Arising from a shared Southern experience, "Soul Food" uses ingredients and recipes common to almost every Southerner, which are especially familiar to those from rural areas where raising a vegetable garden and a few chickens, and even a small hog or two is not uncommon. Skin color makes no difference in Soul Food, because tomatoes don't care who grows them, or eats them. Neither do cabbage, corn, okra, beans, or collard greens care who cooks them. And everybody - regardless of skin color - uses everything but the squeal from the pig. It's sharing a way of life. It's family. It's knowing that you and your neighbors are connected because both your groceries come from the same soil, and were prepared with the same love and sweat of your brow. It's about love of family, and sharing your table. It's about opening your heart, your hands, and your mouth for another serving of candied yams, banana pudding, macaroni and cheese, or pork spare ribs. Now, if any of that sounds familiar, or if sweet iced tea and lemonade have any appeal to you whatsoever, you'll definitely want to take your next lunch at Silver Sands!
