I went to the Southern Kin in Assembly, Somerville, MA, for the second time, and wow, what an upgrade in their food since March! 🌟
Starting with the appetizers, the Devilish Eggs, boasting beet-cured eggs, bacon candy, jalapeno, and beet chips, were an absolute delight—one of my favorites with an easy 9/10 rating! 🥚🥓🌶️
The corn ribs, featuring roasted corn, cashew sour cream, aleppo chili, and toasted pecans, were nothing short of spectacular. My brother declared them the best corn he’s ever had, and I wholeheartedly agree—10/10! 🌽🌶️👌
The mac ‘n’ cheese, adorned with breadcrumbs, scored an 8/10 for its comforting twist, while the salad, while a tad standard, held its own at 6/10. 🧀🥗
The Fried Green Tomatoes, topped with crab, grilled corn, cherry pepper salad, and garlic aioli, delivered a tasty experience, although the corn did steal the spotlight a bit—7/10. 🍅🦀🌽
Moving on to the large plates, the Shrimp n‘ grits, featuring andouille sausage gravy and cheddar grits, were a symphony of flavors. I especially enjoyed the sausage—7/10. 🍤🧀
We also tried their alligator tacos🌮 and these are so fun to try especially if you are an adventurous foodie like myself-trust me they taste like chicken🐔 8/10
Dessert was a sweet finale, and you can’t go wrong with the Chocolate peanut butter and peach pie slices. The chocolate peanut butter stole our hearts, and while the peach pie lacked a bit of fresh peach punch, it was still a delicious treat—8/10. 🍫🥧🍑
In summary, Southern Kin has truly upped its culinary game, earning a solid 8/10 overall food rating. While affordability and ambiance both received a commendable 7/10, the diverse and flavorful offerings make it a must-visit for those seeking a delightful dining experience! 🍽️💫
