My husband had the Chicken Fajitas, which he said were very good. I ordered the Supreme Nachos. The menu stated they would have Chicken, Beef and Beans. When I got them, I was very surprised at the lack of chips. I have never had a plate of nachos with hardly any tortilla chips. The dish was definitely more like a salad. At first that is what I thought might have happened, I had given me a salad instead. But then I saw one of the salads, they were served in a taco shell bowl. Once I started eating them, with a fork like a salad, I really liked the flavor but there was way more chicken then beef and beans, and there was A LOT of chicken. So...overall I did enjoy my "nachos" but they were not what I was expecting.

They are a familiar sight just off of the various highways and offer both a store with various items and a restaurant. The srore is always pretty cool and the restaurant offers your usual southern style menu. I would say that breakfast is the best meal that they serve and my go-to is their chicken fried steak and eggs. This location did offer me a first. If you are familiar with Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, the rocking chairs and checker boards in front of the store are a familiar sight. This was the first time that I have ever saw people actually playing checkers at them. Two gentlemen were playing and had quite a few people around them watching the game. So, in New Albany, Mississippi, I got to see this. Overall, the service at the country store was friendly, the ambiance is rustic and today, I just shopped in the store, so I cannot comment on the food. If you are unfamiliar with Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, you should check it out. It is a part of the landscape down here in the southeastern part of out country. Hey, here you can even get in a game of checkers.

I had taken a couple bites before realizing that there was no avocado and since I had paid extra for it and left a tip my boyfriend and I went back. When he walked in he wasn't acknowledged even though there was no one else in the shop. My boyfriend had the receipt and explained that we didn't get the avocado. Instead of the worker making a new sandwich or even putting the avocado on the side, he just added the avocado to my already half eaten sandwich and then proceeded to put the spoon back into the avocado. I do not recommend this subway. The workers definitely need a course about cross contamination and to use clean utensils especially if you add something to someone's already eaten sandwich. That is utterly disgusting and ridiculous.

Seriously, those fast-food sandwiches keep getting smaller while the price goes up. I hit up Connie's on Jackson Ave (right next to Popeyes). I was starving, so I doubled down and ordered two honey butter chicken biscuits. First off, these things are huge. For about 4 bucks ($4.29) , you get a massive, hot biscuit with actual quality chicken. I'm usually the guy who has to order two of everything to get full, but these are so filling I actually struggled to finish the second one. Definitely the move if you're in town and want a breakfast that actually holds you over. Recommend it.

Heard we had to try Ajax, the diner, not the soap. We stopped in for lunch before heading to Nashville airport to come home. The diner is about what you'd expect inside. Old, kitschy and full of decor. We sat in a booth an were greeted by a waitress promptly for drink orders. Cokes and waters. They deliver the coke in a neat Ajax cup. I ordered the chicken fried steak. Wife ordered the chicken and dumplings and step son ordered catfish. Everything arrived very quickly and everything was hot and southern deliciousness, except the corn bread. The corn bread was dry and not very good at all. Pretty sure it was yesterday's leftover bread or someone needs to pull it 5 minutes sooner from the oven. Unanimous at the table, Everton e had garb corn bread. No big deal. The chicken fried steak was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Gravy was great and the red beans and rice side was awesome. All great flavors. Wife loved the chicken and dumplings, good flavor and tender chicken. She got a side of sweet potato casserole and loved it. I had a bite and it was delicious for certain. Step son had the fried catfish, he is not a big seafood eater but he absolutely loves the catfish. I had a big piece and it was cooked perfectly and tasted great as well. The staff was outstanding, the service was great and the food was excellent sans the cornbread. Ajax is a neat little diner in the heart of Oxford. It's a little pricey as is everything in this college town, but it was worth the visit.
