TikToker Keith Lee has made his second stop in Baton Rouge at this local health food spot (3)

Keith Lee travels the country to support small, local businesses by eating their food and spotlighting them on TikTok to his 16.3 million followers. Baton Rouge has been on Lee's radar for a while now, and he's finally made the trip down to Louisiana's capital city.

Lee posted his second video from Baton Rouge late Thursday night, showcasing smoothies, drinks, and acai bowls from Dr. FeelGood, located onCoursey Boulevard. The wellness spot came recommended by Maameefua Koomson, a Baton Rouge food creator with 26,000 followers on TikTok.

"This is the only healthy or remotely healthy place that we got recommended to since we've been here," Lee said in his latest video.

Lee's wife, Ronni, and their children went into the store where they received wonderful service, he said. They spent $30.24.

Lee shared that he was originally drawn to the Green Being juice, a refreshing juice with pressed kale, spinach, pineapple, and a variety of other fresh flavors. Unfortunately, it was out of stock so he chose the hibiscus and sea moss drink as a replacement.

"You can see the fear on my face," Lee said as he opened the drink. "I don't do hibiscus or sea moss ... but I'm going to go in with an open mind."

Lee and his wife expressed that the drink has a "gritty" texture, likely from the sea moss, that they aren't a fan of. Lee gave the drink a 3 out of 10 while his wife rated it much higher with an 8.

On a much higher note, he tried the Blue Dream smoothie next. It has a coconut water base with banana, mango, pineapple, sea moss and blue spirulina in it. The drink is a soft seafoam green with white marbling from the coconut base.

"That's real refreshing," he said after taking a sip of the drink. "It's exactly what you need on a hot day."

He rated it an 8.7 out of 10, reaching to take another sip.

Finally, Lee and his wife shared an acai bowl with classic oats and honey topped with strawberries, blueberries and banana. It had another refreshing flavor that he thoroughly enjoyed.

Ronni enjoyed how sweet the bowl was compared to other spots that have a more bitter acai taste.

"It's a Black-owned business that's selling health food at a really good price," Lee said. "I'm in full support."

And support he did.

After the couple finished their food, they walked into the store again to leave a $3,000 tip and $1,000 to pay for anyone who comes in after them.

"I've never had nothing in my life happen to me like this," said one of the employees.

While his review of the restaurant was overall positive, Lee shared critical thoughts of the capital city from his time here.

He was surprised that many restaurants close early in the afternoon and don't accept call-in or online orders.

"It's like a takeout kind of city," he said.

His annoyance extends past the food culture because he hasn't been able to get phone service anywhere in the city.

"We in the country," he joked.

His first stop in Baton Rouge was Fork 'N Spoon, a breakfast spot that he rated an average of 7.6 out of 10. He is expected to visit several more spots while in town.
