Jackson Jambalaya

Just a preview of the next Town of Pelehatchie board meeting!

How in the world is this Piccadilly still open? It appears that the only customer in the place was the one recording the video. This is what Jackson (and other cities) has come to. If something is wrong there is no reason to have a rational discussion, just start screaming foul words and hitting anyone within arms reach. At least no firearm was discharged. As thin as the crowd was when this was recorded the crowd will probably get even thinner. Wait, this incident may draw the fighting crowd in since it is climate controlled and has carpet on the floors. Geez!!! What a bunch of thugs!

Obesity is big problem in this fine city.

"I done tolt you Mac n' Cheese is a vegetable in Mississippi"

This is what happens when the cashier at the end of the line busts your sorry ass for colluding with the servers to put the big dollop of mashed potatoes and extra gravy on the same plate over your LARGE chop steak and you tell the cashier it is the SMALL chop steak. How many times have I seen that happen? The best part of the whole scene is at -1:14 when the fellow asks for "S'mo tea" and the waitress is like "fo real"?!

Now that is a serious lack of Institutional Control. They should self impose a Bowl ban and put all the salads and sides on a plate for the next two years.

That’s a lot of fat.....

Damn....

Soooo much to work with here... Is there an English translation for this, subtitles perhaps? I guess I'm going to cancel my reservation.

And is that Kennuf's sweat rag hanging off of the chair in the foreground?

@11:52...….you're absolutely right!!

BUT, stupidity is an epidemic running rampant in the city. Too bad it isn't fatal in most cases or at least more cases.

This appears to be clearly outside of regular business hours. No business would be open with that few customers and that many employees. It was probably a team-building exercise mandated by corporate....gone bad.

Classic line at 1:15 when dude filming casual asks for some mo' tea.

Well, shoot! I'd been planning to check out this Piccadilly since I haven't been there in a good 20 years or more, but I guess I won't now.

That's it! I'm going to Golden Corral from now on.....

...could i get some mo tea?

This video cries out for a Sir David Attenborough narration. "These creatures spend most of their days foraging as we see here. And, occasionally, placid moments are shattered by skirmishes among the troop's females."

Had to watch 3x to understand...this is a minor disagreement between The Red Coats (serving staff) and The White Coats (kitchen staff)...the memebers of the Team Dispute Resolution Committie stepped in and diffused the incident...

Can we please have a class on filming these types of events using a cell phone? Please turn the camera to landscape so we can see more of the fight.

Wow! SMH and wow, just wow! My son and I actually do still eat here, every now and then and this is just downright ridiculous and yes, there's usually NOT many patrons in there, so no long wait, but the quality of food seems to go down each time we go. We only go for variety but I think I'll be going to the one over on the other side of town, 55, or pick other buffet home food style restaurants, especially if this were the workers fighting and not only customers. Damn.

4:01....I can just hear Sir David now. Best JJ comment this year hands down.

I'm 68 years old & can't see to good. Is this a conflict between staff? or customer & staff?

Religion hasn't really made much of an impact on some parts of Southern society.

5:55, would you really want to eat anything prepared by people of this caliber?

4:01 for the win. Don't know who won the skirmish (reds or whites) and couldn't understand much of what was bring said. But maybe as Sir David said, it really wasn't a color ossue, but just some of the females in a minor skirmish.

Did the customers get treated to some more tea - or a free desert- once they settled down, or was this a common enough occurrence that management didn't think anything needed to be done once some of the staff was escorted from the building?

UJFC Ultimatimate Jacktown Fighting Club coming to a Costco near you soon!!!!!

JJ - Can you please provide translation?

And they say we need a zoo....

This reminds me of a Sunday about 40 years ago at Morrison's cafeteria on Old Canton Road at Fondren. My family and I were having lunch when a man ran from the kitchen with a woman right on his tail with a butcher knife that looked more like a machete. They ran all over the dining area and eventually went outside. I don't know if she ever caught up to him. That was the last time that we lunched there.

Surprised that people even wander into the Robinson Road area to eat. DId you hear the person in the background asking for more tea?

This reminded me of the parents brawl at the Ridgeland youth baseball game last year with the Meridian cop and the mayor. Wonder what ever happened to them?

Somebody give the taller, thin male employee in red a promotion. At 1:45 he breaks up a fight by pushing the guy in the shorts and black shirt across the restaurant, then calmly retrieves a to-go plate belonging to said guy in black shirt before escorting him out. Nice work.

Where was the manager during all of this?? And why was everyone just sitting there watching this sideshow -- Amazed that shots were not fired. This is NOT the Jackson I grew up in....this is a toilet bowl!

I can't recall every visiting this establishment. How long has the 'ghetto behavior' prevailed at this venue?

July 16, 2018 at 4:01 PM . THANK YOU. Best comment ever.

My wife and I used to come here occasionally after church. At that time (3 years ago) the food was still good (for a Picadilly) and we never encountered any problems or incidents such as this altercation. We stopped going because we prefer the I-55 location. I can't speak for how it's been since we stopped going, but I imagine the deterioration of the mall and surrounding area parallels the decline of this establishment.

Reminds me of some of the fights we had at Mississippi Democratic Party executive committee meetings.

This is very troubling, and clearly a professional was needed to capture the interaction...
Early...some altercation occurs in the serving line between unknown subjects
The players
Red Coats...RC...Serving Staff
White Coats...WC...Kitchen Staff
Short BF Customer...SBFC
Skinny BM Customer...SKBMC
0:05. Get off me
0:07. Allright... I'll leave...I'll leave
0:08. We'll be back
0:10. Ya'll coming back?...ya'll coming back?
0:13. You bad aint you?
0:15. Aint no trouble!!!
0:20 SBFC...Move...Move...both you dumb b*tches...move
0:22. SBFWC...This aint yo mommas house...b*tch
0:23. SBFC...Move

Then between 0:23 and 0:42, the RC and WC try to keep SBFWC in back and away from SBFC and physical altercation...many words are exchanged between multiple subjects...camera pans towards back and left...cook with hair cover comes out, purse on shoulder
0:32. SBFWC...why I got you?...you not my problem...
0:40. SBFWC...B*tch...b*tch
0:41. SBFC...Hush...hush
At this time, both the SBFC and SBMC are at the register and one can see the altercation begin to flesh out between the two...
0:50 SBFC...That not your style...Heil naw
Then multiple exchanges between SBFC and SBFWC...Shut up...Hush...Shut up...Hush
0:52. SBFWC is released, and makes her way back toward register...seeing this, the TWFRC claps 2x and signals beginng of bout...SBFWC grabs yellow broom and begins broom beatdown on SKBMC at register

Not sure what 'TW' stands for. Hope you're not suggesting there are any white folk in this video. If there had been, Kingfish would have included "...later succumbed to her injuries at UMMM."

Piccadilly at the Mall used to be a destination! Always a favorite was the Almond Crusted Fish with cold tartar sauce. Could not be beat! What happened to those days?

Come on People......it's only dinner rolls......They can fix some more!!!!!

People just need to calm down so we can all get along!!!!!
