No reason to go hungry

Wow, how is this place still open? Chicken Fried Steak and an extra side of Covid, please.

Despite shut-down order and police visit, Jubilee Cafe remains open

Threats of fines and other punishments have not prevented Jerry Weaver from keeping open for interior dining his Kickapoo restaurant.

Ultimately, it might be up to the Illinois State Police to change that situation.

“We’re kind of having a peaceful protest inside eating,” the Jubilee Cafe owner said Tuesday morning.

The longstanding, home-style restaurant at Interstate 74 and Kickapoo-Edwards Road reopened for indoor patronage May 29. The reopening was in defiance of Gov. JB Pritzker’s coronavirus-related order for restaurants to remain closed, other than for carry-out or outdoor dining.

Last week, Weaver received a cease-and-desist letter from the Peoria City/County Health Department. It was responding to several complaints, according to the letter.

With all due respect, why are we talking about a PJS article from 2020? If Weaver kept his place open during COVID restrictions, that's his problem. But those dine-in restrictions were lifted, starting partially, then totally when Phase 5 kicked in June 11, 2021. The two times I've been out there, (once for work, once more recently for my video hobby), the place has been clean, well kept, and the food and service very good.

Are you certain you weren’t just “willfully ignorant of basic sanitation” as was implied by the guy you give “due respect” to?

Hint: as a drive-by troll, he is due no respect.

Come on man, how else do you score a free brat or slice of pie?

@RPlant (didn't want to repost entire thing).
When it comes to doing my videos that involved food, coffee, or ice cream, I always insist to the owner/manager that I pay for whatever I order. Only 2 have refused my cash in hand, at the register.

Mr. Tazewell,
Ok, I stand corrected. However, others here didn't have to jump on the bratwurst bandwagon, in my opinion.

But I do know there are some here that have expressed appreciation for what I do as a hobby. And I thank them for that.
