Recently, I saw a picture of stuffed shrimp from a local restaurant. It came from a place I had vaguely heard about but had never visited. I asked a friend who knows about all our local eateries, and he assured me a trip to Eddie’s Seafood and Soul Food would not disappoint.
If you decide to do the same, here’s a word of warning. Call to make a reservation. Early in the week, I sent an email (the closest thing to making an online reservation) through the restaurant’s website.
In my first job, I made $13,000 a year, so I ate ramen noodles to survive. On payday, I would go to the grocery store and load up on those containers with the peel-back lid, in which you add water and then heat up in the microwave.
