Me and my family are in a loop, and the food in this bag is named after us. This is from a place called Cleo’s, and since the last time we came, they’ve opened two new locations. In my opinion, is it still the same? I got it. Let’s try it and rate it 1 to 10.

We spent twenty-five dollars and ninety-nine cents. As far as the customer service, once again, we ordered through DoorDash. We didn’t really get to see the customer service, but that is amazing. They opened two new locations since we’ve been here. And I want to take this time to say shout out to Cleo. She’s been rocking it.

People ask me all the time, “How long does the Keith Lee effect last?” And I always use her as an example. It’s been almost a year, and she’s still booming from location to location. And I really want to see if the food is the same. I’m going to show you everything I got, and we’re going to try it and rate it 1 to 10.

This is what they call “the 10.” This is everything we ordered last time we came. This is what I gave a 10. I don’t get any profits off of this. I’m not working with Miss Cleo at all, under any circumstances. But I absolutely love it from the bottom of my heart.

This is catfish with pineapple glaze, sweet potatoes, and a cornbread muffin. It’s hot. When I say it’s hot, I mean it’s hot on the bottom.

Haha.

Big bite. I didn’t even let it touch my tongue. I never do that. You can smell the seasoning, girl.

Big bite, big bite, big bite.

Oh my God, that’s cornbread.

10 out of 10, for sure. Your right arm, your right arm, for sure.

Everything I said last time, I stand on 1,000%. Not only is this some of the best soul food I’ve ever had, but it’s also one of the best restaurants I’ve been to on the entire food tour. It’s so crazy because it’s only three items. And of all the places we go to, even including the places that we don’t record, like the Michelin-star restaurants and the really fancy ones, Cleo’s is up there.

It’s buttery, it’s crispy, it’s seasoned, it’s a little spicy, it’s perfectly salted. In my opinion, there ain’t nothing better than that.

That’s a 10. I’m a regular. I’m going to come here all the time.

I pray and hope that after this, they continue to reach their target audience. God bless you. Have an amazing day. Y’all be safe. I appreciate you. Would you like a piece of catfish?

Haha, absolutely. God bless you.
