Welcome back to the BOFC. If you thought Detroit was cold, well Chicago was no different. We still made it to Batter and Berries off Lincoln Ave. Opened in 2012. Owned by a husband and wife duo. Known for their World Famous French toast . B & B is definitely a staple in the Chicago Black community.

We also tapped on the shoulder of our brother Lavalle who owns Succezz Sneaker Store in chicago also . Make sure you check out both of these black owned establishments. - Trinidad James
