Aunt Flora's

So I passed a table in the PNC building downtown where there was quite possibly the kindest and most endearing gentleman that I have ever met, selling things called "Aunt Flora's Cobblers." Let me say, I am not really a pie, crisp, cobbler, Brown Betty, pandowdy kind of girl, such baked items don't seem "dessert-ish" enough for me. But I was lured by this sweet man's winsome charm and wholesome story - - and his free samplers of cobbler. HELLO, adorable little 2-pounder blackberry cobbler! I snatched that one up. And then said wonderful Cobbler Man insisted that I try the "vegetable cobbler" (this. Did. Not. Appeal. To. Me. At. All). I tried it to be polite. And then I purchased it as well in the 2-pounder size because after one taste I was won over.Apparently the cobblers can be ordered in just about any size and serving capacity. These hearty, heavy little compact 2-pound cobblers could easily feed 2 adults. I cannot even imagine how cozy and comforting tucking into a hot chicken cobbler must be (doesn't that just sound lovely?!). These two-serving (OR only-meal-needed-for-the-day) cobblers are $10 apiece, and they are WORTH IT. They taste so good and are so flawlessly executed! You simply cannot expect to get an Aunt Flora-quality cobbler for a Swanson frozen pie price.The dear Cobbler Man instructed that I should gently warm up a fruit cobbler in a preheated 300 degree oven for 10 min. - but that didn't happen, who has time like that when you have a perfect personal pan pie thing to devour?! My kiddo and I split the blackberry lovely, nuked it till hot and ate it swirled with whipped cream. GAWWWWWW, deliciousness. The fruity, juicy goodness was tangy and lightly spiced with something that tasted like Christmas morning. And the crust is ridiculous, even MICROWAVED it didn't lose any of its flaky integrity and still came out crispy and golden.Oh and that cheesy-but-cheeseless, meatless-but-savory vegetable pot pie I also got?! Um ate that microwaved at work the next day and had TWO co-workers poised with plastic ware asking to try it. I'm friendly so I said sure. Deliciousness, the filling was loaded with veggies and greens and nourished without weighing down. Ahhhh I emphatically recommend that you try to get your hands on an Aunt Flora's cobbler if you can, IDK if they have a bricks-and-mortar business so I can only promote their stand at PNC/First Financial. I picked up my THIRD cobbler today and got to meet Aunt Flora, and she's kind of a culinary goddess.

Was at Findlay's Market and decided to try it. Got the peach cobbler and blueberry cobbler. Don't let the size if the container fool you, there is a lot of cobbler in there! Workers was very professional and friendly!

Great little spot for a relaxed meal with friends. No frills. It was very clean. Aunt Flora looks just like the damn pictures and comes out to your table to discuss the menu. Do not come here expecting cloth napkins and china.Had the chicken wings with two sides. The sides I chose were greens and Mac-n-cheese. $12 All of the food was good, not great. It should have been no more than $9 but I feel like you pay a premium when you are eating in a hidden restaurant in the back of a bar at 10:30 pm. We took an entire peach cobbler to go.

While at Kenwood Mall this past weekend I was being drawn to a pretzel place like a mosquito to a bug light. But just as I was at the point of no return I noticed a little kiosk with a cheerful gentleman setting up neatly packaged baked goods. I asked what he was selling and he said apple, peach, or vegetable cobbler. To which I responded that I loved peach cobbler, then he asked me if I'd like to try a sample. Heck yeah I would and one bite later he had me hook, line, and sinker! I promptly bought one and brought it home to enjoy. Don't let the price outweigh the size of the serving in the container. While it doesn't appear like a lot, in one sitting you'll only be able to eat about a quarter of it - especially if you add a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Don't tell my mom I said this but Aunt Flora's may be better than her peach cobbler, and I'm not just saying that because Aunt Flora adds cinammon.

Horribly unprofessional and disrespectful to the staff they hire. The old man was rude to me about my religious beliefs and spoke down to me like I was stupid. However, if you want to support shoddy businesses with subpar sanitary conditions (as the back of the restaurant was quite shockingly disgusting if I do say so myself, especially the smell), by all means, I say give Aunt Flora's a try. I think it speaks for itself that they can't seem to keep a location open.

Ate there about six months ago (sorry it took so long) great Whiting, mac&cheese, greens with southern cornbread to die for. Nice, clean, little bar with live jazz on the weekends. Little pricey but so worth it. Everything fresh and delish!
