Auburn Avenue Rib Shack, It's Not! Where Is Thelma's Soul!

by jaymaygm at Citysearch

Many years back, we were major fan's of Thelma's Kitchen, over on Marietta St. Now she has moved to Auburn Ave. And she has moved to sacred ground, for many of us native Atlantan's. As a kid I would sneak over to the Auburn Ave. Rib Shack, for a slab of heaven. Now Thelma has taken over the old location, and that's a hard act to follow. We don't know if it's just time for her to retire, or the soul has just gone away. The fried chicken, mac n' cheese, and greens are just not the same. Soul food comes from the soul, but it's just not at this location on Auburn Ave.

• Pros: Legendary Location!
• Cons: Food Lacks Tasty Soul!
