Whether it be smothered pork chops, catfish, collard greens, chicken and waffles, or the coolaid of the day, this place has them all and more, and they are damn good to boot. A very family friendly establishment, this place has excellent food. Good enough for an Asian woman from Flushing to travel all the way out to Harlem to get her fix. Be warned though. Their honey dipped chicken is ultra sweet as is their coolaid of the day. Diabetic coma inducingly sweet. Make sure you make room for their banana pudding and if you're lucky to come in early for dinner on Tuesday, go for their Tuesday night special "Chicken and Dumplings". Absolutely a killer dish.
