Fair fare is, well, usually fair. But at this year’s Sonoma County Fair, there’s crawfish etouffee, fried alligator and (noms) crab fries with Old Bay aioli at Southern Comfort Kitchen (Magnolia Avenue inside the fairgrounds).
The Brill brothers are tried and true New Orleans natives with roux in their veins, serving up some tasty twists on the usual fair food. Worth a special trip, but if you miss them this time, they’ll be at Art & Soul in Oakland and various other public and private (they’re headed to Google in the coming weeks) events.
I am so happy you checked this place out! Southern Comfort Kitchen was my favorite spot this year! I’m going back tomorrow for those crab fries!
Was NOT impressed with the fair food this year… even the so called “hand dipped” corn dogs were luke warm, soggy and flavorless. PLEASE fair board – change it up next year and get some good food. If I pay $11.00 to get into the fair I would like to have good food.
