Kindred Davidson



Kay Fisher
 & Lauren had the pleasure of attending Kindred Restaurant’s soft-opening this week, before its grand opening last night – February 19th.  Kindred Restaurant is owned by Davidson residents, Joe & Katy Kindred.  Joe is the former chef for Rooster’s Uptown and is now showcasing his creativity exclusively in Davidson.
When we arrived, the restaurant is very welcoming.  You enter into the main dining area and bar on the left.  The bar features a unique wood piece on the wall, that is part of the former drug store that occupied this building.  Kindred offers main floor dining, upstairs dining, patio dining (when warm!), and a unique 10-person chef’s table in the kitchen.
The menu is eclectic, offering items for every palate.  We started off with the milk bread appetizer with house-made butter.  We probably could have made a meal of the bread!  It was warm, a little salty & perfect with the butter.
From the menu, we ordered the winter lettuces salad – this came with dehydrated persimmons & spiced walnuts.  Our entrees were the pasture-raised chicken & the baked egg.  Kindred offers smaller plates for eating and sharing, but both of us were full from our bread, salads & entrees.  The Baked Egg was a hit – crispy jasmine rice, radishes, onion, cilantro & and egg on top, all served in a cast-iron skillet.
We finished our meal with Kindred’s birthday cake – a chocolate cake with sprinkles & a sweet cream ice cream.  This dish was amazing.
Kindred’s wait-staff are very well-versed in the drink & dinner menu.  Our server explained the dishes perfectly.  The ambience in the restaurant is very nice – perfect for a family dinner or romantic date night.
We have a feeling Kindred Davidson will be packed for dinner each night, with many repeat customers.  We know we are returning!

From the www.Overlookhoa.net website: 

"Overlook is the award-winning lake community that led the way for explosive growth in northwest Mecklenburg County, NC. It was developed by Crescent Resources, the real estate arm of Duke Energy, as a way to demonstrate that neighborhood development can successfully co-exist with the valuable natural environment of Mountain Island Lake.   The neighborhood features private lake access, a clubhouse and pool, playgrounds, and nature trails. 

Because Mountain Island Lake is the water source for Charlotte and several counties, trees and natural vegetation remain undisturbed -- one reason why residents marvel at being away from it all while still being close by. Uptown Charlotte is an easy 20-minute commute and NorthLake Mall and the National Whitewater Center are only minutes away."

5736 Cedar Run Road - Denver

WHAT OUR SELLERS LOVE ABOUT 5736 Cedar Run Road:
 

The things we have enjoyed most about living here are:
 
 • Our well water. It is delicious. 
 • The quiet feel of Lincoln County yet with easy access to Lake Norman attractions and a very direct route to Charlotte & CLT airport (Route 16/485). 
 • Both our neighborhood and the Denver community as a whole are a great mixture of NC natives and transplants from other parts of the country. Being transplants ourselves, it was easy to find people from places we’ve lived before, but we’ve also gotten to know lots of lifelong North Carolinians. 
 • We love our excellent elementary school (Rock Springs) and the whole county public school system overall has a good reputation. 
• The local YMCA (Sally’s YMCA) is a terrific community center with fitness, classes, and a fun outdoor swimming pool during the summer season. 
• Cabbella’s is the best place to get a cup of coffee, and Savory Plum Bistro and Bakery is another local treasure.   

What our neighbors are like:
 
• Around the rest of the neighborhood you’ll find many kind people in all stages of life. There are young couples with young children, middle-aged families, and retirees. There are usually one or two block parties throughout the year and we all get along very well. 

We enjoy this particular house/floorplan because: 
 • We find this house is very comfortable, easy to maintain, and easy to keep clean. 
 • We enjoy the kitchen; we cook every single day and love having the large pantry and immediate access to the dining and breakfast areas. The counter space has been adequate for our family of five. 
 • For our taste, it has just the right flooring in each room (hardwood in living spaces, carpet in bedrooms, tile in bathrooms).   

Some things you may want to know are:
 
 • We are the first occupants of the home, which was completed in early 2007. The builder’s name is Jerry Maggs. I do not know if he is still in the area. 
 • The wooded lot next to ours (east side) has remained un-sold for about 10 years. 
• The well house has a temperature-controlled heat lamp inside to prevent the pump and pipes from freezing. A very nice feature.
