It's almost a two-hander.
Jimmy's has the down-home look and feel of its predecessor, Union Picnic, though that screen door lost its charm after the second or third time it banged but didn't quite shut. The menu covers similar territory, too; I'll vouch for the meaty heft of the pulled pork sandwich (above; $7).The "fried clam" sandwich (below; $6) featured not bellies, not strips, but clam fritters, a few of which scooted out the backside; a hotdog bun, as the menu promised, would have cradled them better. My dessert timing was poor: the buttermilk and pecan pies, and the peach cobbler, were unavailable on the afternoon I visited.
