Description:
In the various novels and stories. here are at least two different restaurants in Jefferson for the white people. This one has a long "frictionsmooth wooden counter" where Joe eats seated "on a backless stool," but all the text tells us about its location is that it is "on a side street" (113). Those two details, however - the long counter and the side-street location - suggest it may be the small restaurant that Flem Snopes acquires from V.K. Ratliff and uses to launch his climb up the town's social and economic ladders.
