Downtown Soul Food: LeShea’s Home Style Eatery

[thelakelander]

Has anyone tried this place out?

You could call it “country cooking.” You could call it “comfort food.” You could call it “soul food.”

All those terms are appropriate for a menu that includes pork chops smothered in gravy, meat loaf, pulled pork, mashed potatoes, green beans, collard greens, macaroni and cheese, corn bread, peach cobbler and sweet potato pie.

Sheameka Jones, owner and chef at LeShea’s, the new restaurant at 119 W. Adams St., has another name.

“I call it ‘homestyle food with a New York twist,’” she said.

I'm going to try this place soon. I'm really looking forward to it, but I'm surprised they close at 3 PM. This is som serious, heavy food. Not exactly the most appealing lunch in this heat so I'll probably target it on an off day.

I tried them out on Wednesday. The food is okay but they're going to have to improve their marketing if they expect to survive.
