A Central City nonprofit restaurant where every meal funds workforce training for at-risk youth ages 16 to 24 — over twenty years of community impact served as scratch-made soul food, roux and all. Come for lunch (breakfast and lunch only, closed weekends) and order red beans on Monday, as the calendar demands; the fried catfish and bread pudding are excellent any day. The food stands on its own, and the purpose behind it makes a plate here one of the most quietly meaningful meals in the city. Cash and cards both work.
