Martha Lou's Kitchen, at 1068 Morrison Street, has been a Charleston soul food institution since 1983 when then then 52-year old Martha Lou Gadsen set up shop in the pink cinder-block hut. But it wasn't until celebrated local chef Sean Brock sang its praises in the New York Times and later on Andrew Zimmern's Bizarre Foods America on the Travel Channel, that Martha Lou's went from local joint to foodie destination.
In 2012, Charles Desaussure of Yemassee painted an eight foot portrait of Martha Lou Gadsen on the side of the restaurant.
