    replying to u/Lost_sidhe: Stowaway is on the top of my "I NEED" to try list. Every time I've gone by they're closed for extenuating circumstances. Their menu looks amazing.

    “They’re great! Amazing hush puppies and cocktails.”

    replying to u/insomniaspeedmetal: As an ex-pat southerner, I feel like your partner is gonna be mega bummed with the quality of biscuits here. With that said, Stowaway in Greenpoint has some dope biscuits and gravy.

    “this is the only place that I think could legitimately hold it’s own against the resultants done there. It wouldn’t be top of the top but it wouldn’t be noticeable worse. And their hushpuppies are 🔥🔥”

    replying to u/carnimiriel: I haven't tried their shrimp and grits but Stowaway makes a decent biscuit. Kellogg's has been inconsistent but I've had a good biscuit from them too, so try your luck. Their country fried steak is usually good though. Like others have said though, there's not really any good Southern food in NYC. Just good enough for when you're craving something.

    “Seconding Stowaway, they also have other southern specials like fried catfish and red beans and rice!”

    “Not sure if you’d class Stowaway (Greenpoint) as New Orleans food or not but definitely southern and good.”
