You may not immediately think of Southern food when you think of Ohio, as it has so many other iconic foods. However, Mrs. Yoder’s Kitchen happens to specialize in cuisine that is rich in flavor, fried foods, and hospitality. In fact, traditional Amish fare isn’t so far from what you’d find in Southern restaurants: crispy fried chicken, mashed potatoes, made-from-scratch pie, and much more. Diners can choose from an all-you-can-eat buffet or a traditional menu, and both options are simply delightful. One thing’s for sure, though: you’ll need to bring your appetite with you! Here’s more on what you can look forward to when you visit Mrs. Yoder’s Kitchen in Ohio.
