great stuff. went there twice last week.
Home Plate Opens - Move Fast For Some Slow Cooking
Last week we were alerted by Beijing Boyce of a new BBQ joint near XiaoYun Lu. With the prospect of some pulled pork and ribs we got there immediately. Home Plate Bar-B-Que – a new restaurant from the guys that did Home Plate Delivery – is serving up all forms of southern food, and for the next week or two there’s a 10 percent discount.
The menu – written up on blackboards to reflect ever new daily additions – includes burgers, sandwiches with pulled pork and brisket, a BBQ platter (RMB 30-40) and a rack of ribs with corn bread and two sides (RMB 90). Corn bread, beans, fries, cole slaw, and cookies are RMB 5-10. Drinks range from RMB 10-20.
Expect even more to be added to the menu, from a variety of ribs to fried okra – a perfect excuse for showing up daily, or at least several times a week.
Home Plate is located a block behind Kro’s Nest on Xiaoyun Lu, accessible by alleys to the right of Kro’s or Bellagio.
