My first visit to Five Star Day included the Trinity of Soul. I gotta admit the black eyed peas and rice were delicious. I could've done without the relish (more like pico) on top, though. And the...

A perfect antidote to a day of house-hunting for this soon-to-be Athens resident. I had the Garden of Eatin' with the cucumber-tomato salad, side salad, and fried green tomatoes. Huge portions, yummy...

As best described to me, Five Star Day is "vegetarian friendly soul food", although they serve plenty of meat (I've heard people rave over the meatloaf). The Kool-Aid of the day is a nice touch, but a...
