Waiting for Fried Chicken at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room

A line gathers each morning at 107 West Jones Street.
At 11 o'clock, the doors of 107 open and the lunch crowd finds seats
at one of the large tables-for-ten shared by strangers. Tabletops
are crowded with platters of fried chicken and cornbread
dressing, sweet potato souffle, black-eyed peas, okra gumbo,
corn muffins and biscuits. The menu changes daily so regulars
can have something different every day. Stop by and enjoy the
special pleasure of a meal shared with neighbors and strangers.
