    You should batch Geo the addresses to these places so people can see what’s near them

    Just stopped at Jizzles on Burleigh yesterday to say hello to Jarvis, the owner, and get one of the best turkey burgers in town. Plan on stopping by a few more this week…including Daddy’s – great fish; Coffee Makes You Black – sweet Mango tea; A Chick and a Skillet – best yams and can’t forget Speed Queen BBQ – no explanation of what to get there.
