Getting a personal invite from Butter Funk Chicken, Lee wasted no time going to the Cajun soul food restaurant. Calling the customer service “really good,” Lee went all in, ordering red beans and rice, catfish, mashed potatoes cornbread, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, lemon pepper wings, oxtails and gravy and gumbo (which Lee’s wife ate because of his shrimp allergy). Although he wasn’t a fan of the gravy, he loved the flavorful cornbread and “buttery” mashed potatoes, the spiciness and seasoning on the red beans and rice, and drenched his catfish in hot sauce. Savoring the large catfish piece, he gave it an 8.9/10, but to Lee, the macaroni and cheese was less than good and lacked salt, giving it a 3.0. Lee’s wife, Mia Yim, gave the gumbo a 6, saying that the dish was soupy and the meat was too soft.
