> Find a black friend and get them to take you to one of the “black only” soul food places in the ghetto. The place is dirty as hell. Your choice of drink is coolaid and you get a side of buttered bread. I’m not joking about any of this. Seriously the best place for chicken or ribs. I don’t know the name of it or what part of the ghetto. I think it was on broadway or off it?

You are talking about Gigi’s on East ferry? Near Jefferson
