Chef and owner Tami takes as much pride in her passed-down recipes as she does the NYC neighborhood where she was born and raised. Known for her garlic butter shrimp and creamy grits, fried mac and cheese bites, fish tacos, and seafood po’ boys, Tami serves to her beloved community at the corner of 7th Avenue and 125th Street. Harlem Seafood Soul is the first and only solar-powered, eco-friendly food cart in the area– just one aspect of her business that Tami is honored to bring to her neighborhood. The three-year-old food cart has become a fixture in Harlem, and Tami’s love for the food, people, and history of her uptown community inspires her to keep going.

“I over came cancer twice” “ I over came an abusive husband” “I over came depression” This woman is a rock. Someone to definitely look up to.
-
She’s raw. Her energy is SOLID. One strong women, Amen.
-
"i am a two time cancer survivor. So therefore, Challenges that other people face.....I look at them as details that just need to be worked out." Girl, what a statement. Preach! Sending love from Texas.
-
"Challenges are just details that need to be worked out". My God, she is preaching.
-
"Problems are just details, that need to be worked out." Fantastic quote.
-
I get the auntie vibe from her strong.
-
I love the fact that she was there for her friend and not turned her back on her also told her to get something to eat....that really touched my heart
-
This woman has a beautiful spirit, she loves people, all people especially with Harlem being gentrified now, it doesn't matter what your natinality she treats everyone will love and respect. Food is good too! She is a treasure to Harlem.
-
“I wanna slap the shit outta somebody with the flavor”. 😂😂 love this
-
When she says 70's and 80's she mean she was in the hustle game, back in New York it was hard to strive during that time, the way she treated her friend was nothing but humbleness, you can tell her friend got lost in the drugs, she told her to order anything she wanted. Now that's respect. This woman changed her life and God has and will keep blessing her soul
-
I just love how Harlem, LA and New York's black communities look like one but huge family, such positive energy
-
you know what i love about this channel, no moderator talking or telling us a story about the icons, the icons themselves talk freely and tell everybody whats up/whats going on, so we can make ourselves a picture about them, i love it! keep up the great content!
-
This lady, her New York energy, her Black excellence, her drive is everything man👏🏾💪🏾bless up and keep doing you🗽
-
"Black excellence was EXPECTED of you and NOT AN OPTION " and we need to have that same energy now
-
Never met this woman a day in my life. Never been to Harlem I'm from a small city in Ohio but I can say I love this woman. Her spirit is so beautiful. I pray for nothing but the best for her.
-
This lady needs a whole special episode, just about her. Her spirit and tenacity is fire 🔥 and should be shared with all !
-
She makes me wanna drive up to Harlem, and try everything on the menu
-
I love that she’s not only telling people that they can do it, she’s SHOWING them how it’s done with kindness and compassion. ❤️
-
Don't even know this woman, but I love Her. No crying about a struggle. Just making it happen and making stomachs happy at the same damn time!
