Franklinton, Louisiana · Washington Parish
Hot plate lunches, cold drinks, live bait, USA-made leather belts and just about everything in between — the Knight family's been keeping it stocked since 1996.
Every weekday the kitchen puts out a hot plate with all the fixings — meat, sides, cornbread or roll, dessert and a 16 oz. sweet tea. Plates start at $12.99+ and go till they're gone.
Boils, burgers, loaded fries, taco salads and dessert trays rotate through too — the day's plate posts every morning.
