smokin' ed I had the privelige of not only getting to eat at LC's this year in June, but I also got to shake the hand of LC himself.

The joint is small and old with very little parking, but the food was great. I posted a review:

You'll have to try the place. They have more than one location, I'd recommend going to the original restaurant for the history.
