Soul food restaurant · Argay

"This seafoam green and lavender cart in the Argay neighborhood on Northeast Sandy Blvd opened in one of the toughest environments in the history of restaurants, July 2020. But Selena Taylor and her husband Greg had a vision for a cart that kept things pretty simple: just fish and fries. Though they’ve stayed mostly true to that vision, they’ve also added some other soul food sweet staples like banana pudding and peach cobbler. It’s also one of the only places in town to find another soul food favorite: Southern-style mustard greens, which come with smoked turkey. The star of the show here, however, is the warming and well-seasoned crawfish étouffée, served over white rice; it’s available on its own, in a kid’s meal with a side of juice, and in the the Selena Sampler — étouffée, fried basa, and fried salmon, with cornbread, mustard greens, and a choice of dessert." - Ron Scott, Nathan Williams
