They could have leveraged the history of CB to introduce some new down home food,like southern bbq or corn on the cob, creamy cole slaw, grilled chicken, black eyed peas, collard greens, cornbread, etc..and some newer types of food...but have kept the down home vibe...maybe streamline the kitschy stuff that was on the walls...if they want a newer market, they need a new restaurant brand... don’t kill a successful brand... that’s stupid.

They have cornbread and creamy slaw, in the form of little corn muffins and that pale almost white cabbage that all the restaraunts use these days because they are afraid to use the beautiful green outer leaves of cabbage, for some reason.

They have a BBQ style chicken that is good. But, they could probably do better if the offered true BBQ.

Freshen the green beans up, I don’t think too many people these days yearn for the old cooked to death olive drab beans of pot luck days.

Turnip greens with smoked turkey in them would be great but not sure if younger generations even eat greens.

Agree. They don’t offer “down home” food like hash or omelets. (What breakfast place doesn’t serve omelets?) I used to go to Po Folks restaurant and ordered fried crisp chicken livers, which is down home.
