5 /5 JM “Impossible Traveler”: Nestled in the heart of Plattsburgh, BIG Tz House of Soul is a delightful oasis for soul food enthusiasts. From the moment you step inside, the warm, inviting atmosphere makes you feel right at home. We ordered takeout.
I sampled the Jerk Chicken, and it was a standout. Marinated to perfection, the chicken was flavorful with just the right amount of spice, juicy, and tender. Paired with sweet yams, which offered an excellent balance of flavors, and perfectly cooked collard greens that had a nice, rich taste, it was a dish that transported me straight to the South.
The Fried Chicken was another highlight, boasting a crunchy exterior while remaining moist inside—just what youd hope for from classic soul food. The creamy Mac and Cheese was indulgent and rich, a comforting accompaniment that complemented all the dishes. The cornbread was a delightful surprise; it was light, fluffy, and slightly sweet, making it a perfect addition to the meal.
To top it off, I indulged in both the Vanilla and Black and White milkshakes. The vanilla shake was smooth and creamy, while the black and white was a delightful twist that brought together rich chocolate with vanilla bliss.
Overall, BIG Tz House of Soul delivers a fantastic soul food experience with generous portions, affordability, and an ambiance that feels like family. Whether youre a local or just passing through, this restaurant deserves a spot on your itinerary!
