 Watts Grocery Restaurant Review: Chef Amy Tornquist’s restaurant in a restored grocery building houses a vibrant dining room showcasing her unique interpretations of classic Southern dishes. A popular neighborhood gathering spot, Watts Grocery exudes cheerfulness and high energy. Gourmets of all ages and budgets congregate here for Tornquist’s latest creations using produce and artisan goods from Durham County. To open, try the butternut squash salad with spiced pecans and local goat cheese, chicken livers fried in duck fat, or the ethereal hush puppies dipped in a basil mayonnaise. Entrées may include fried catfish with pecan butter, a rib-eye with pimento cheese topping and buttermilk mashed potatoes, or a Cajun-style shrimp and tasso ham étouffée. Save room for the famous desserts---a cloudlike angel food cake with lemon curd and candied lemon peel or a decadent version of a “S’more,” Campfire Sunday, with house-made chocolate ice cream and fudge sauce, well worth the calories. |
