Can recommend two places to eat on your next visit to Charlotte, NC
one: Mert's Heart and Soul..... really great soul food with a funky blues, low country vibe.

Then there is Zadajane's a sort of like a mini Lynns's Paradise Cafe.
Here is a link to the menu. It seems that their website menus are acting up.
