Described by owner Brandi Watson as "contemporary comfort food," A Wing and a Prayer will offer light fare wraps, salads and fresh fruit during the week and traditional soul food, such as ribs, greens, fried chicken, and waffles, on weekends.

Located at 444 Northampton St., Watson's dream of opening her own business was made possible through an $11,500 loan from the Samuel Adams Brewing the American Dream program, in partnership with local lender Rising Tide Community Loan Fund, she said recently.

The space, which was last home to a small restaurant specializing in the cuisine of the West Indies, has recently been redecorated and provides a bright and welcoming atmosphere for A Wing and a Prayer's customers that are sure to enjoy "Ms. Brandi's" home cooking.

Friends assist with the recent redecorating efforts at the soon-to-open A Wing and a Prayer,
located at 444 Northampton St.

    1. Thanks! Glad you like it.

      I was privileged to taste a piece of Brandi's fried chicken a few weeks ago when I ran into her by chance, and it was awesome. I'm sure A Wing and a Prayer is going to be a hit.
