Big Mama's Kitchen And Catering
After being on Diners Drive Ins and Dives, the Travel Channel, Ludo Bites, and maybe her own reality show, I finally stopped in at Big Mama's. Got there early before anyone else, so I had a chance to talk to Big Mama herself. Nice lady,, great and friendly staff. Asked what I could write home about and they suggested the Catfish, with Mac n Cheese and Sweet Potato Casserole (with cornbread of course) it was excellent, even though their fried chicken is the most well known around. Unfortunately they were out of okra, she never knows how much to get, plus most of her produce is from locals. Funky building and cafeteria, but it is the food you are going there for. By the time I left the place was half full, with a great mixture of business people and locals. Pictures of her life and family all over the place. Her father played bass guitar in a circuit band back in the days. One of those you have to visit at least once places.

Unnecessary comment, but I'll indulge you. Â I actually don't eat KFC at all. Â I thought the prices were too high for what you got along with the bad atmosphere. Â I like a good atmosphere when I go out to eat. Â I felt like I was in a crusty church basement there.Pat wrote:Overpriced? You must eat at KFC too much.bargainhunter wrote:Went there a couple of years ago. Unimpressed. Terribly overpriced.
Funny, it has the same tile floor pattern that my Catholic elementary school cafeteria did...bargainhunter wrote:I felt like I was in a crusty church basement there.

Big Mama's Kitchen is back on the Food Network — and this time, the Omaha soul food restaurant is the star of its own show.
The restaurant's new series, called “Big Mama's Kitchen,” premieres Friday and is an inside look into the world of owner Patricia “Big Mama” Barron and her daughter, Gladys, who manages the restaurant.
“With three generations in the kitchen,” the Food Network press release reads, “things are bound to get messy.”

If I remember correct it was not that long ago you were there. Â Betting it was more than a possibility at that time. Bet filming was already going on.

They did a pilot already, among others, so hers must have finally made the cut.nebugeater wrote:Coyote wrote:Good for her, she mentioned to me that this was a possibility, when I was last there.

Funny thing 5-10 years I was complaining because all the TV was written for people with ADD, now its written to maximize the drama...

Re: Big Mama's Kitchen And Catering
I’ve eaten at Big Mama’s Kitchen before and liked it.. I’ve always been concerned though, at its present location, if they could maintain business and if not..ultimately close..Brad wrote:Apparently still in the works...nebugeater wrote:Looks like Big Mama's plans on relocating in 2017
