Soul Satisfying

When my dad first told me about this place, I wasn’t too sure if it was the place for me. The name Hard Knox Café reminded me a little too much of Annie. But once I got to this diner style place on Clement and 26^th. I knew I would be able to get over the musical theater reminder. They serve delicious Southern style food with a really great atmosphere.

I particularly love the booths that line the restaurant and the many signs that line the walls.

Every time I have gone to Hard Knox, I have always gotten an Arnold Palmer, in case some of you foodies don’t know an Arnold Palmer has half lemonade, half iced tea. I don’t know what it is, but I adore the Arnold Palmers there.

Now onto the food, I ordered the roasted pork loin sandwich with honey mustard. This was the first time I have ever had a sandwich there and it was great. The bread was fresh and all the vegetables in the sandwich were crunchy in the best way possible. Also with every entrée, they give you two warm corn muffins, which are a great addition to the meal. My sister got the Fried Red Snapper entrée, which she really enjoyed. Overall, if you want really great soul food (corn muffins!) and in a relaxed environment, you should go to Hard Knox.
