Old Skool Cafe is a restaurant, and a nonprofit violence prevention program that provides job training to youth ages 16-22. Everyone on staff, from the servers to the hosts, wears red and black fedoras, bowties, and suspenders, to go along with the '20s-inspired jazz supper club theme. This spot serves soul food classics, like fried chicken, gooey mac and cheese, and brussels sprouts with a sesame soy dressing, plus a few dishes inspired by the staff. You won't be disappointed by anything you order, especially if you order Abu’s West African peanut butter stew. It’s cooked in coconut milk with sweet potatoes, and is light yet incredibly rich and creamy at the same time.
