They have taken that home-grown philosophy and made Hamil’s one of the best buffet meal around. Rustic and old is the décor with many old photos, tools, and a car tag collection, with a special Madison-Ridgeland room featuring old composites of seniors from years past, football memorabilia and red and white tablecloths for a simple and casual dining experience that makes you feel like family. The bottom line: Hamil’s is the type of place where out-of-towners get a taste of what Mississippi cuisine is all about. This is good ol’ country cooking! See back for menu. RSVP REQUIRED
Threads of Love: Threads of Love, through the effort and support of many participants in chapters across the country, provides clothing, blankets and other handmade articles for tiny premature and sick infants. All items are made by volunteers. Materials and labor are donated by ladies who are part of the Threads of Love ministry, who show their love for the Lord by using their sewing talents in serving the Lord. When a parent is faced with the death of an infant through miscarriage, infant death or stillbirth, we reach out to them with a packet containing a bonnet, dress, blanket and a prayer for healing of a broken heart.
