F4tF: Soul & Comfort Food @ Edmonds Cafe

From a food quality standpoint, the place is immaculately clean and the food always looks (and tastes) hot , fresh and homemade. As you can see from their menu below, the options are not many and the menu is very simple but it is the quality of the food, not the quantity of options that matter.

The interior is nothing fancy, a few tables with hard orange plastic seats and approximately eight or nine counter stools.  Their steam table, where the food is held for service, is your run of the mill industrial restaurant steam table.  It is what is in the steam table that really sets Edmonds apart.  So far I have tried the smothered chicken and turkey meat loaf dinners (separate trips) and the yams, smashed potatoes, mac & cheese and collard greens.  It is because of food like this that the moniker “comfort food” truly applies.

I could go on describing their hot dishes but the real standout of Edmonds for me is their Peach Cobbler. It is one big gooey mess of molten sugar, crusty dough, cooked peaches and lots and lots of love.  If you only go to Edmonds for one thing, try the cobbler first. Just be warned, don’t have any high energy plans afterwords, it is food coma inducing!
