When you have the urge to run to the drive-thru, turn the other way and pick up a homemade dish at these local places.

Mom’s Table

Exactly like the name, when you step into the 1950s-style kitchen you are transported back in time to mom or grandma’s table. Try heat-and-eat options such as pot roast, spaghetti pie or chicken and dumplings. Roswell.

Oakhurst Market

Mon.-Thurs. you can stop by and pick up a hot dinner for two or four people, but make sure you order by 2 p.m. because some meals sell out. Menu suppers change weekly and are listed on the website and social media. Or try the grab-n-go hot dinners ready by 5 p.m. each day. Try the baked chicken and mashed potatoes or the shrimp and grits. Decatur.

Casseroles

All of the food is made from scratch including sauces and stocks. The dishes made each day are refrigerated and ready to pop in the oven. Dishes made days prior are frozen solid and need time to thaw, which they are happy to do three-hours prior to your pick-up time. Favorites include: meatloaf and potatoes or chicken and biscuits.
