Say it Loud! ('08) or "You Must See This"


"We are not as divided as our politics suggests, we are one people, we are one nation, and together we will begin the next great chapter in the American story, with three words that will ring from coast to coast, from sea to shining sea - "Yes we can!"_Barack Obama

I have tried to provide food for all without predjudice to their political affiliation, race, creed or color. I have fed preachers and pimps, politicians and prostitutes. The ingredient that has been the same on all of their plates is a healthy dash of respect and the soul of my culture. My macaroni and cheese does not concern itself with beliefs. The collard greens I serve are for the taste buds of the liberals and the conservatives alike. I do not fry left or right chicken wings.

With that having been stated, we are on the cusp today of creating history - of changing the face of this nation. I would be remiss to all of those that marched in the Civil Rights Movement and were victorious, so that I might be in a position to own a business, if I did not speak up as the creed of my restaurant suggest and ask you to please view and consider the following link.

    Please remember when placing forth your comments, that whether or not we agree, we must effect change through intelligent debate. We have been told that we cannot do this, by a force of citizens, and they will only grow louder, more dissident - immutable. We must combat this by proving them wrong. We are capable of respectful exchange.


    I will always continue to feed you the food of my beautiful black ancestors, and will remain proud that I am able to look out from my kitchen and see people of all colors and background regardless of their socio-economic status enjoying the food of my African American culture. I will always offer dignified service to those who may otherwise not recieve it. And as always, I hope that you will cook well, eat well and be well. Say it Loud! Your friend
