"The Best Turkey Wings" at Tyemeka Soul Food Restaurant in Germantown Philadelphia

[@katrinayoung1384]

I tried Tymeka’s this past Sunday for the first time and I agree, the turkey wings were delicious 😋 The mac & cheese and cabbage were also good! The whiting was perfectly seasoned and fried just right!! Nice portions for good prices!! 🙌🏽

[@ronalddowdell9231]

Yes, my late mom used to cook them together......good.

[@werincarcerationspeaks]

Thank you for highlighting and promoting minority restaurants and startups. This is the beginning of something incredible. There are so many great soul food cooks out there. Much Respect. God Bless.

[@EhHold]

LOL the scene with you getting literally thrown out the establishment 😂

[@angelajones8018]

Greens and cabbage mixed is the only way my grandmother had always cooked hers. Food looks delicious!

[@reneejohnson9256]

Yes it's delicious mixed! Cabbage, and turnip greens are my favorite mix. Dash of vinegar, and dash of sugar! Yummy.

[@iamladyblack1188]

Grabbage!!! My mom used to make that. She cooked them together. Now I make mixed greens, collards, mustard, kale and cabbage!!! It’s so good, just like you said, bitter and sweet!!! So true, we had to sit at the foot of our parents and grandparents and learn!!!

[@lisaanderson8235]

Are you kidding me with the greens and cabbage? Looks SO GOOD. Thank you for highlighting these wonderful local places and people and giving them some JLJ Love. ❤️❤️👍👍😊😊

[@debraj8665]

My mom just passed 11/26/22. I remember my mom would make greens and then the next day she would add cabbage. Miss you mom so much. Thank you for all the great meals over the years. I remember when I used to live in NY I would go the the Shark Bar, the best soul food by far. It was right up there with my mom's.

[@sherribarbour]

Sorry about your mom- hope your holidays will be filled with wonderful memories of your mother's love! I hope she shared her many recipes with you.

[@DJ-nn6vg]

Soul food / anyone’s grandma food is all about love and family. Only years of practice elevates simple ingredients to a five star dining experience that everyone can enjoy. It’s a lost art that needs to come back. Bring back the big family dinner for at least one or two nights a month. Your life will change for the better.

What I love about these soul food spot, is black soul food is getting true recognition and especially seeing blacks and whites are supporting the food...on all levels. We need more of this.....

[@melvinburwell8202]

Glad to see you guys do some soul food. Which I crave almost every day but can't get. Those turkey wings looked fire. Greens Mac and cheese. Woooo. Fried chicken. Gosh! Shout out to small east coast black businesses. Hey JL. That's why they call them😋😋😋😋 Hot Wings. Lol.

Soul food takes time. You can't slap it together.

[@ronalddowdell9231]

No you can't.....nor can you use sub-standard ingredients. Everything has to be fresh.

[@asabifatosin1150]

It’s hard as he_ _ to find good , perfectly cooked turkey wings from any restaurant. So this is a great find. You dropped the chicken because you forgot to put out something for your ancestors (they will take it from you ! (Lol). I love greens & cabbage on the same plate. Thanks for the review/recommendation. Looking forward!

[@isisheggs8065]

[@cynthiasmith6650]

One of the reáspns we don't get it right is because for a period of them me younger blacks did not want to associate themselves with soul food. So we weren't there to watch our grandma's cook. They wanted to eat food that made them feel accepted in society. Then when whites started wanting soul food it became popular and we realized we had it all along and now we are proud of it. Welcome home.
