Soul food in London or Paris? Heard there is one near the Latin Quarter, Does anyone know the name?

I have heard that there are Soul food restaurants in both cities. I'll be in Europe nearly two months and would love to have some home cooking after having eaten the local food for a while. A friend said that she saw one in the Latin Quarter in Paris about two years ago but she forgets the name of the place. She didn't eat there because at that point she was quite content with all of the other wonderful French and Greek restaurants in the area. Does anyone know the name of this place?

Juanita, seriously. I'd try looking in the Latin quarter....that might be your best bet? I spent 4 months abroad in Paris but can't recall a "soul food"joint! I"ll keep my ears open though-

Juanita,<BR> Try the following web site: www.cafedelasoul.com. Scroll down and on the righthand side click on "restaurants." You'll find a listing of soul food restaurants in Paris.<BR>
