On Melissa’s last day before heading back to Oakland, CA., we went out for dinner. This time it was my turn to choose the place. I decided on SOCO Restaurant, Thornton Park.
SOCO (Southern Contemporary Cuisine) takes classic southern fare and kicks it up a few notches. The atmosphere is trendy and cozy, with a lot of natural light. Let me take you on a quick tour of our experience.
Our server Jordan and the hostess Tiffany were both very professional and courteous. They both helped to make our dining experience one we’ll remember. Thank you both so much!
As I passed by, I noticed a small bio on the wall, one about Chef Greg Richie and another about how old favorites have been reimagined.
For our appetizers, we had House Smoked Fish Dip Gratin.
Melissa had their Lake Meadow Naturals Deviled Eggs.
Soco-Style Chicken and Dumplings.
Slow Roasted Barbecue-Glazed Pork Belly on Grilled Biscuits Topped With Chow-chow.
Grilled Meatloaf on Lobster mashed potatoes.
Diver Scallops With Roasted Baby Carrots And Brussels Sprouts.
A Trio Of Banana Puddings, Chocolate, Bourbon, and Peanut Butter With A Vanilla Wafer Waffle.
