I was treated to the culinary delights of Pearls Place Restaurant in Chicago over the weekend. I highly and enthusiastically recommend the restaurant and its most delicious food. I jokingly told the server that they should also offer a discount gym membership on the menu. The myriad offerings of soul food immediately transports you back to your grandmother’s or mother’s kitchen. Your taste buds will travel through the joys of African American staples of collards, macaroni...

Well, I thought it was home-cooked, but it was not. The food was okay, but I did go close to closing time, so they were ready to leave. Overall, it was a cool little soul food joint.
