EatLafayette Dish of the Day: Ema's chicken fried steak

by Camille LeJeune

Our plate lunch week kicks off with real comfort food.

For a southern classic that comforts the soul, look no further than Ema'?s Restaurant?s chicken fried steak. This pan-fried dish contains a hearty chicken cutlet breaded with seasoned flour and smothered in homemade white gravy. Fluffy garlic mashed potatoes and your choice of a side (love those sweet potato fries) completes the dish.

Check back here every week day for more great plate lunch options from participating EatLafayette restaurants.
