I grew up in Douglasville Ga. I always loved going to the mall there. It had many shops. When I was growing up me and my family would go out to eat at a place called Folks which is country cooking. I am 33 years old now and living in SC and I still make it a tradition to go to that restaurant. Its not only good cooking but brings back memories of my mom.
Favorite places are Folks, Hudsons, and Wing It. I have not lived there in 11 years and I sure do miss it.
