34519   Reader submitted blog Maxies A Bit of Southern Charm
I recently made my first visit to the restaurant Maxie’s Southern Comfort, specializing in Creole and Cajun cooking from scratch. It has only been open for about a year, but has certainly made a name for itself among west side and downtown diners. Located directly north of the 68th street e...

34522   Reader submitted blog Does anyone even go to Pepe's Rockin' Taco Shack? Patty Burger? Mayura?
