Billie’s Black – Harlem Travel Guide – iPhone, iPod, iPad
Sophisticated Soul
Billie’s Black, named after owner Adriane Ferguson’s mother, offers soul food with an elegant and creative twist. Catfish fingers on the appetizer 
menu, are so good that they are a meal unto themselves. You will also find an array of exotic mixed drinks on the menu, but the regulars swear by the mojitos. There is always something happening at Billie’s, like karaoke every Tuesday (no cover), Funny Friday comedy where seasoned and up-and-coming comics get their jokes on (cover $10 in advance and $15 at the door), live jazz and R&B ($10 cover), and spoken word ($5 cover)—just check the website calendar. Billie’s So Damn Happy Hour features $5 well drinks, beers, and appetizers from 5pm to 9pm.
Cuisine: Soul Food, Southern
Cedric’s Restaurant just opened up and nothing things but good things are being said at this place. Officially the “New Hot Stop in Harlem”. Or good around the corner and checkoutMoca Restaurant and Lounge holding it down with their live DJ, spoken word and more.
Transportation: Bus— M2, M7, M10, M102. Subway—B, C, 2, 3 to 116th St.

Literally a guide in my pocket
Posted by Max on 13th Jan 2012
I can only subscribe to what other people already have told about the guide. It’s just great that I can read a place description, actually give a call its manager, find it on a map and even hook up on its Twitter channel to keep my eye on it. Very smart!
