Soul Food for Everyone
Located in the shopping center at Glencoe & Maxella, Aunt Kizzy's Back Porch is the West Side's best locale for good down home southern cooking. My favorite is their breaded catfish, especially when served with collard greens and black-eyed peas. Also excellent is their Aunt Johnnie's Fried Chicken, their meat loaf, smothered pork chops (bring your cardiologist along just in case), jambalaya, and hot links. At lunchtime, there is a buffet available. Service can be a little slow in the evenings, but the food IS freshly prepared; so I have no problem with that. If you plan to charge it, note that Aunt Kizzy's only accepts the American Express Card.
