| - I grew up eating at this restaurant, formerly known as "Eddie's Place, Danny's Too", ever since I was about 10 years old when I would take piano lessons next door. Even though I moved out of Charlotte a couple of years ago, whenever I come back home to visit my folks, I have to make a trip to Eddie's Place for a hotdog, pasta salad, gumbo, and fries.
Hot Dog - juicy & big. what more can you ask for?
Pasta Salad - tangy and garlicky. i've tried all sorts of pasta salads around the country, and even dining in Los Angeles or NY where the world's most renowned eating establishments are, I have not found a more perfect pasta salad than the one at Eddie's Place. Yes - it's THAT good.
Gumbo - this is a great cajun gumbo with a nice kick to it. the rice and the sausages are cooked to perfection, in addition to the soft and tender okra that soaks up all the flavor of the soup. must try!
Fries - I live on the West Coast now, and I still think about Eddie's Place fries from time to time. They are crisp, salted just right, and sprinkled with fresh black pepper. As a kid, my dad would let me get an order of fries after every piano lesson, and many times I couldn't wait until after my lesson so I would convince my dad to buy me some beforehand...
I hope this place stays in business for a very long time!
