Chef Paul’s Cafe

Chef Paul’s Cafe is located in the historical Chinatown district in Downtown Fresno.  Interesting neighborhood.

I sense the age of the original buildings and I see some redevelopment going on.  I didn’t see any Chinese people and only one Chinese restaurant.

Chef Paul transitioned from a catering business in 2010 to his current storefront.  I admired the decor inside.

Menu had an excellent selection of soul food.  I ordered the oxtail.

Crinkle cut fries were crispy on the outside and soft in the center.  Loved the light fried potato flavor.

Oxtail was tender and had a nice beef flavor.  The light brown sauce provided a nice additional flavor.  Good portion size.  Great tasting dish.

Staff was nice and provided great service.  Next time I’m in town I wanna try the fried catfish and fried chicken.
