"You worry too much about what you put in to your mouth, and not enough about what comes out of it."

Leah Chase was a facilitator of important conversations, but you'd never know her true impact on the progress of America if you asked her. Her restaurant, Dookie Chase, was the spot to be in New Orleans, Louisiana when segregation was terrorizing the nation. The restaurant became as place for black and white people to have conversations about Civil Rights without having to worry about violence. Her art collection is thought to be one of the best collections of African American art in New Orleans, and her gumbo the best in the world!
