Soul Spot in Brooklyn

My neighborhood, Carroll Gardens, and the adjacent neighborhood, Cobble Hill, has a plethora of great restaurants. If you want French or Italian or great American cuisine, for example, you are bound to find something very good for an affordable price.

But ethnic foods are harder to find. There's a few good Thai spots but just a few. But Chinese and Indian are more difficult fair. And forget Caribbean food...

But today, I found something a little different in the neighborhood: Soul Spot on Smith Street and Atlantic. I'm not certain, but it has to be the only soul food spot in Brooklyn until you reach Prospect Heights or Crown Heights. For 9 bucks I had one of the 3 or 4 best fried chickens I have ever had, some collard greens and mac & cheese. So, so good.
