Yeah, Coooper's rocks.  Though listed as a distinct side-order, you will 
get cracklins no matter what.  They usually come in the hushpuppy 
basket.  BBQ is first rate, but don't skip the fried chicken.

It looks like they may have to relocate as I believe they are in the 
block that has been designated for the new Progress Energy 
building/parking deck megalith.  I hope they survive the move.  Get it 
while you can.

And while their BBQ isn't always the main draw, you might enjoy Don 
Murray's (little white house on Capitol).  They've got a mean fried 
trout plate, and the richest chicken pastry in town.  Oh yeah, and their 
sweet tea has a specific gravity of about 1.45, so if you left your 
insulin at home, you might want to wait for the ice to melt.
