the pit hushpuppies and biscuits

I love going to restaurants that give you just a little something to nibble on while you review the menu. Something that can take the place of an appetizer if you aren't looking for a big meal. These are some of our favorite restaurant freebies: 

The Pit (Raleigh) - The hush-puppies and biscuits here are so good. They really get your mouth watering and ready for the great night of barbecue ahead. 
Angus Barn (Raleigh) - This place has the ultimate freebies - homemade cheeses, freshly made crackers and a pickles and olives tray. I nearly fill up on all the great cheese before I get my meal. 
Flying Biscuit (Raleigh) - They give you a free biscuit. And you get their apple butter to go on it. Seriously good stuff. 
El Rodeo (Raleigh) - Gotta love their chips and salsa. 
Mimis (Raleigh/Greensboro/Cary) / Outback Steakhouse (various) - I normally shy away from naming chains on this list, but I had to put them their based on the free bread you get at each place. Mimis offers a collection of breads including carrot and raisin. And Outback is known for its fresh honey wheat bread. 
Honorable mentions: Machupicchu Peruvian Cuisine (Raleigh) for its canchas (toasted corn kernels) and Winston's Grille (Raleigh) for its blueberry muffins during brunch. 
So, there are probably a few freebies I missed. Let me know your picks in the comments sections below.
