    Don't believe the hype. Peels is so disappointing. Dry biscuits, overcooked eggs, bland grits. Southern is done much better nearby at North Spy or Cardinal or Bobwhite.

    Fruit salad is pretty basic and uninteresting, a few chopped apples, bananas and grapes. Meh.

    Gobblecado was tasty, bar service was underwhelming. Lovely space and fresh food but I'm not sure I see what all the fuss is about just yet.

    Avoid the $9.50 slice of pie and scoop of tasteless cheap ice cream.
