Where to Pick Up Picnic Food For Chicago’s Parks | Eater Chicago

"Chef Danta Curry Sr. opened Special O’Cajun in 2023, seeking to help the community by providing employment for people with criminal records and working with local organizations focused on addressing food insecurity. His soul food menu includes fried chicken, rib tips, and smothered pork chops accompanied by fried green tomatoes, collard greens, and mac & cheese. Special O’Cajun is carryout only, but diners can enjoy their meal in nearby Garfield Park." - Sam Nelson
