K & W Cafeterias

Dad selected the Chicken and Dumplings, mashed potatoes & gravy, cottage cheese, and a roll. The chicken and dumplings had ample gravy and chicken meat. The noodles were slickers, the style that is rolled out flat and cut into squares. I think they must have used the broth that the chicken was cooked in to make the gravy because it was very rich and had hearty chicken flavor. The mashed potatoes were a creamed potato with brown gravy. Dad, Mom and Jerry ordered them, and they all thought the potatoes tasted good. The bread was a soft homemade yeast roll. Both of my parents love the rolls and always get one. Mom had the Baked Spaghetti, mashed potatoes & gravy, fried apples, roll, and coffee. The spaghetti was tossed in a tangy meat sauce with diced vegetables and was covered with baked cheese. The tender apples could have been dessert as they were coated in a brown sugar and spice glaze. Jerry had the Chicken Livers, macaroni & cheese, mashed potatoes & gravy, and custard pie. As it was a slower night, the livers and the mac & cheese had been on the food line too long. They were dry and no longer piping hot. The egg custard was so mild that the crust overpowered it. I had the Chicken Ranch Casserole, fried okra, turnip greens, and Mexican cornbread. The casserole was outstanding. The rotini noodles were tossed in a creamy sauce with loads of chicken and topped with a layer of baked cheddar cheese. The okra was breaded and fried crisp. The tender cooked greens with diced turnips were well seasoned and had the tiniest hint of bitterness. I thought the cornbread had a bit of heat from the jalapeño peppers but was mild enough for most everyone’s taste. Please check out our blog for more details at

Atmosphere: mom loves the beautiful white tablecloths
Food: I refuse to eat here. The food does not even look appetizing. My dad loves this restaurant. Mom gets a piece of fish. Dad does not like the hot sauce there b/​c it is not hot. We went to the one in Chapel Hill and all I could do is watch my family eat. I literally did not take a plate. Luis politely ate the plate but it was only b/​c mom was treating us.
It is a cafeteria line, but there is person standing up serving water.
