YOUR WEEKLY DIGESTION OF FOOD NEWS TO CONSUME

Just For You is a cafe in Dogpatch with a New Orleans flair that is mostly known for brunch and it's beignets, which are good, but I'm here to praise the cornbread. As a born/raised Southerner I've had my fair share of cornbread in many forms and guises. From muffins to casserole topping to loaves to ones shaped like corn cobs and even some used as shortcake substitute. I've also tried pretty much everyone in this town and for me the overriding theme has usually been 'DRY'. However, having had Just For You's version on more than my fair share of occasions, I will say they do one of the best in town. It's tasty, moist and served warm which is the way I like as this allows me to smother it in all kinds of butter to my hearts delight. You get a nice big square that is corny and dense in all the right ways with a lovely golden brown crust on top and soft crumbliness inside that just absorbs the butter right up. To be honest I usually go through about 6-8 pats, which is bad for the cholesterol but yummy in the mouth. This is just straight up cornbread the way it should be. Next time you go, skip the biscuit or toast choice and try a slab of the cornbread instead, totally worth it. And if they seem to be running low on butter, it means I was probably there right before you.
