J’s Place
J’s Place is not where you want to be on a Sunday after Church, unless you have plenty of time. ☺ I never get excited about soul food Restaurants, because growing up in Texas, I have a mother, auntie, and grandma, who are the BEST when it comes to soul food cuisine. But since I don’t get their cooking often, I had to divert to J’s Place. I went to J’s Place Sunday, with most of the after church crowd. We waited and waited, and finally sat down to order. I had the fried catfish, sweet potatoes, and cabbage. The catfish was fried crispy and hard, just the way I like. J’s Place did not disappoint! The catfish was worth the wait. I’m looking forward to ordering their Dressing for Thanksgiving. J’s Place is located at 5141 Ming Ave. They’re closed on Monday.
