Cock-a-doodle-do!

At heart I’m a good ol’ fashioned southern girl and every now and then I hafta find my southern food fix here in New York! My most recent obsession (introduced to me by her) is Red Rooster in Harlem. Dirty rice & shrimp, cornbread, blackened catfish, fried chicken (or “Fried Yard Bird” as they call it!!) and black eyed peas…. oh heavens lord have mercy.
