Sweet Home Cafe offers a delightful pit stop within the National Museum of African American History and Culture. I enjoyed the fried chicken, which was crispy and packed with flavor. The collard greens were a standout, reminiscent of home-cooked meals, though the mac and cheese could use a bit more cheese. The casual ambiance is perfect for lunch, despite the bustling crowds. With prices around $25 per plate, it's a bit on the higher side but worth it for a hearty meal. Don't miss the banana pudding! 🍰
