On September 29, 2008, Chef George and his wife, Amy Reed bought City Cafe East on the corner of Lebanon Pike and Spence Lane, a restaurant that had been around for 20 years before they added their friendly atmosphere and delicious flavors to the meat-and-three cafeteria style restaurant. Fans of their catering business followed and soon were enjoying his famous chicken tortilla soup with Cajun corn cakes every day, not just at a special event.Other soups can include Creole gumbo and New England clam chowder - perfectly paired with a fresh, grilled Reuben sandwich. When you see the grill out front, be sure to come by the next day for some of their tender brisket.
