🍽️ Kate's Plates Serves Up Southern Comfort Week in Pikeville

Kate’s Plates is bringing family recipes to the table this week with a special Southern Comfort menu inspired by generations of home cooking. The Pikeville-based kitchen is taking pre-orders for a limited-time comfort food lineup, available for pickup at a local venue in the northern Sequatchie Valley.

📋 What’s on the Menu

The Southern Comfort Week plate features homestyle meatloaf with a rich tomato glaze, creamy whipped mashed potatoes with plenty of butter, and buttery whole kernel corn. Each plate comes with Papa Charles’ Devils Food Cake, served with or without milk chocolate icing. At $14 per plate, the offering reflects the care that goes into each component. 🥔

For those wanting to round out their meal, Kate’s Plates is offering an add-on: a 16-ounce container of Nana Sheila’s Pinto Beans and cornbread with onions for $5 extra. The family recipes behind these dishes underscore the personal touch that drives the business. 🌽
