Sally’s Famous Kitchen is not the sort of place you go to slim down. One look at their Instagram page will make that clear. It is the kind of place you go when you want to load up on freshly made stick-to-your-ribs soul food. And it’s also a good place to find some art. “Chilling” is the name of the piece above, found on the south wall, while “Jazz” is the piece below, found on the north. The Facebook signature above leads nowhere. AK seems to have deleted his artist page on Facebook, but you can find him and a gallery of his work on Fine Art America. That’s where I found the names. A Google Street View image from April 2016 shows that there also used to be a mural facing the road, apparently named “BB King’s Guitar,” but has been painted over for some reason. A screen capture is at the bottom of the page.
UPDATE: This building has been painted over. It may be that Sally’s has closed. There is some more art by the same artist on the north-facing wall of the market across the street. As yet it is not on the blog. It features cows.
Located 2427 Antioch Pike, at the corner of Blue Hole Road. There is a plenty of parking at Sally’s. You might also park over by the Express Mart just down the road which has an interesting mural of its own I’ll feature later, but be warned. Despite the semi-rural character of this neighborhood, the Antioch Pike-Blue Hole Rd. intersection is a busy three-way stop with a lot of traffic. Load up on some serious eats and enjoy the art!
