Free Delivery + How Roscoe’s Became an Institution

LA's favorite Chicken and Waffles. [Postmates]( Free Delivery | Use code: THATSYUMMY [The PostUp]( Today we want you to meet Herb Hudson. He founded [Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles]( in 1975 and in the last 45 years it’s become a Southern California staple. Herb left New York in search of something new and exciting and landed in Hollywood. When he got there, he noticed something—there were no good chicken places in town, and the waffles weren’t that great either. That’s when Roscoe's was born. A Presidential Meal In 2011, two years into his first presidential term, Barack Obama visited Roscoe’s and ordered a Number 9 aka the ‘Country Boy’—three wings with the choice of a waffle, potato salad or French fries on the side. Herb and his team commemorated the visit by changing the name of the No. 9 to ‘Obama’s Special’. Haven’t tried Herb’s signature dish? You’re missing out. Here’s what he has to say about the experience: “It's the best food combination in my opinion. You get sweet, savory, hearty and so much flavor all in one bite.” Black Lives Matter Becoming a prominent member of LA’s food culture comes with its challenges, he says. “Being a Black business owner hasn't been an easy road. During certain restaurant opening ceremonies, I haven't always had support from the city. Being Black, I've dealt with employees and managers not liking the idea of working for a "Black man" therefore leading to conflicts and ultimately lawsuits.” [The PostUp]( Message to Fellow Black Business Owners “We need to be 10x more business savvy, 10x more knowledgeable, and 10x more poised and ready for anything. This pandemic won't get us down! Hang in there. We got this. For serious issues with your business, please reach out to my team. I would love to help my fellow brothers and sisters.” To support Roscoe's or other Black-owned restaurants in your area, open up Postmates and find the Black-Owned collection.
