These are my people! I had passed this little Cafe several times, always enticed by "souse" on their signage. I decided to give them a look-see. Ba-by...they did not disappoint. We got a few sides: french fries, cabbage, red beans and rice...and souse (watch out for the peppercorns)! Good eats, friends. Riviera Beach has a gem in its midst. I got family energy and I was full like my family fed me. Sorry, no pictures. I can't promise I'll take any either, lol, as soon as the food got home, it was gone.

THIS RESTAURANT IS DEFINITELY A HIDDEN GEM, DIAMOMD IN THE ROUGH AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN!!! THE FOOD WAS SO GOOD I ORDERED IT TO GO, BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT DIDN'T MAKE IT OUT THE DOOR LOL IT WAS COMPLETELY DEVOURED IN ABOUT 3MINUTES. I DID ORDER THE SOUSE AND A CUP OF COOL-AID. THE RESTAURANT IS VERY CLEAN, AND WELCOMING... THE OWNER IS A BEAUTIFUL DOWN TO EARTH WOMAN OF COLOR AND EXTREMELY HOSPITABLE. IF YOU ARE TIRED OF THE BORING FOOD CHAIN SCENE, DEFINITELY GIVE THIS RESTAURANT A TRY AND THE ONLY REGRET YOU'LL HAVE IS NOT TRYING THEM SOONER. P.S UNFORTUNATELY I DON'T HAVE ANY PICTURES OF THE MURDER SCENE LOL, BUT I'LL BE RETURNING VERY SOON AND PICTURES WILL BE ADDED TO THIS REVIEW!
