"You’ve heard of Sylvia’s. It’s famous, and you’ll undoubtedly see tourists here, but you’ll also see people from the neighborhood who recognize the fact that Sylvia’s is good at just about everything. Fresh, warm cornbread? Check. Thick waffles and chicken so crispy that you could shoot an ASMR video? Also check. And don’t forget the mac and cheese that comes with a thick cap of melted cheddar. The huge space hosts a gospel brunch every Sunday, so bring all your live music-loving friends." - neha talreja, will hartman, bryan kim, kenny yang
