"Breakout food critic Keith Lee is among a large group of Better Funk Kitchen fans.  The restaurant’s comfort food dishes include crispy fried ribs, deep fried boudin rolls, and gumbo. Its red beans and rice, fried okra, and brown butter mashed potatoes round out the main dishes nicely. Those still with room for dessert should go for Butter Funk’s decadent peach cobbler — the best way to complete a truly soulful meal." - Alexandria Jack, Kayla Stewart
