OxTail dinner at Natural Start in East Orange NJ Ep. 37

Went to Natural Start restaurant in Newark NJ for some tasty soul food. We love discovering these hidden gems in our community. I did not know about this place until one of our Subscribers Keyana suggested It. IM GLAD SHE DID! Our subscribers are the best. On that note. Thanks for Subscribing to the channel and enjoy the video.

    I never had any thought of going to Newark, NJ. After watching your videos, I will definitely make a stop there if I am anywhere close. The chicken wings on this clip look absolutely delicious. Keep up the good work.

    They have good chicken, but I feel like there are superior places that have good chicken. Now their meatloaf and shrimp are top tier. Most places aren't serving meatloaf and if they do its dry and basic. If places are serving shrimp, they're either too small or dry. Soul Food Factory when it was in East Orange had great chicken with nice portions. I'm not sure how it is since it moved to Union.

    I hate when the black restaurants use those A-rab seasonings... They dont cook properly... and the taste is not traditional... Ironically Ambassador chicken (A-rab owned) are minimum in their seasoning and the taste is more traditional black people fried chicken..
