This week, we’re shining the spotlight on Willie Richardson, the mastermind behind Willie’s Taste of Soul—where every bite is packed with Southern comfort and rich, soulful flavors.
If you’re craving authentic soul food, look no further! Willie serves up classics like:

Crispy Fried Chicken, Fried Pork Chops, Red Beans & Rice, Jambalaya – a bold and hearty Creole favorite and Gumbo (seasonal fall/winter) – a warm, comforting bowl of Louisiana goodness.

And that’s not all! Willie puts a twist on tradition with Twisted Red Beans – a deliciously unique spin on a Southern staple, and Twisted Gumbo – an unforgettable take on this classic dish. And don’t forget to wash it all down with Willie’s Fresh-Squeezed Lemonade!

Mr. Willie stated, “Willies Taste of Soul will hit our 4-year mark in February. We love having the opportunity to serve so many different people. It’s such a blessing to have faithful customers." He continued, "The Mandeville Trailhead is a joy because
it is family-friendly, and we are family operated from 4 generations.
Dishing out soul food is what you’ll find when you stop by the healing station. Our passion is good food, good vibes, love God, and love people.”

Swing by Booth #17 and experience the soulful flavors and Southern hospitality that make Willie’s Taste of Soul a must-visit!
