Southern-style menu for the Khyber Pass Pub

On Tuesday, Adam Erace shared the interesting news that The Khyber (56 S. Second St.), which was earmarked as a new-look izakaya by its owners back in August, would instead go Southern under the watchful food eye of chef Mark McKinney, who runs the show at Royal Tavern and Cantina Dos Segundos. Here's a PDF of the new menu, which will go live in full on Thursday, Nov. 18. Starting this coming Tuesday, Nov. 9, the Khyber Pass Pub (as it'll now be known) will run a preview version of the menu, which includes eats like fried chicken, gumbo (above), fried oysters, Carolina-style BBQ pork, fried green tomatoes, po'boys (on Leidenheimer rolls) and even a big ol' New Orleans-style muffuletta sandwich. Daily specials, too. The Khyber Pass Pub will be open every day from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m., with food served until 1 nightly.

A choice between butter and bacon grease is hardly a choice at all.

all they're missing is the veggie plate because i'd be hard pressed to pick just two of those side.
