"Charles Maye also remembers driving past Woody’s predecessor. Maye grew up in the Mid-City area and recalls riding with his family past the plume of smoke on Crenshaw south of Adams, when Leo’s churned out St. Louis-style barbecue in a space that eventually became Phillips Bar-B-Que." - Mona Holmes
