Doe's Eat Place

Have you ever been to Doe's in Greenville, Mississippi? What a treat. According to an article in Southern Living, it is "a Greenville landmark with tamales and 5-acre steaks. (Sharing is allowed.)" We went there last night with our friends Roger and Julie. When you walk in through the kitchen, you have to get your sea legs because the floor is very uneven. You get to see all the food being prepared as you enter. Then you are seated at folding tables covered with vinyl tablecloths. Our favorites are tamales, salad, french fries and steak (usually a filet). However, if we visited there often enough, we would want to try their shrimp, gumbo and spaghetti. There is at least one other Doe's but the one in Greenville is the original and, if you live anywhere within 200 miles or so, you should experience the atmosphere at least once in your life. The steaks are so amazing!

Oh! And don't forget! Be sure to stop by and meet Doe and his son (Doe) on your way in or out. The ladies always get a hug!

We were full, but not too full to play several rousing hands of Spades when we got home. I won't say who won!
