Let’s all gather again at the long table

My stomach was growling the other day and persuaded me to pull in at Oak Plaza Restaurant for some good ol’ country cooking.

My cousin, the late John Wilson, used to say eating “country cookin’ made you good lookin’”, but apparently that passed me by.

The Oak Plaza Restaurant is an icon, an institution and an anchor locally. It dates back to the days of king tobacco and served countless scores of people from its 1958 founding until now.
