    Londa's Place

    ---soul food restaurant in Charlotte NC.

    If ever in Charlotte, this is worth finding---this is down home soul food at it's best.

    It is a typical southern cafeteria (meat and two in this case) with a wonderfully warm and welcoming staff serving delicious food.

    I had ox tails served over rice with the brazing liquid, mac and cheese and collards. My wife had meatloaf and my son a pork chop---all were great.

    ....and no....we were not the only white folk there on a Sunday noon hour.

    We had Mrs Whites Golden Rule Cafe but it closed a few years back. The menu was written on the wall and there were no prices. You paid what you thought the meal was worth and I'm sure i over paid because it reminded my of the food when I was growing up in Mississippi.

    That's it... I thought it closed. Looks to have changed a bit but still looks good.

    Down here in the Deep South soul food is so prevalent and then I guess we just take it for granted. There's good collards macaroni and cheese any kind of pork any kind of chicken any kind of anything on steam tables all over town any day and it's all good

    Never did develop a liking for collard or mustard greens. I will however take a large helping of spinach.

    I got beat every day of my life for not wanting to eat my greens, lumps and welts beat. Brussel Sprouts and collards being the worse. To this day it's hard to eat greens and I seldom do. Like Tex I can eat spinach out of a can though, don't like fresh. Broccoli smothered in cheese and some green beans I can handle.
