Synopsis

In the spirit of Ed Levine's New York Eats and Patricia Wells's Food Lover's Guide to Paris, this is the first-ever guide to the people and places that are institutions in Southern food. Much more than the ordinary guidebook list of every smoke shack from Hattiesburg to Hahira, Southern Belly tells the story behind the food, people, and places that have become Southern legends. Included are more than 200 eateries that run the gamut from chicken shacks, fish camps, and meat 'n' three joints; profiles of civil rights leaders; and veteran barbecue pitmasters. Fully illustrated, this book captures the soul of Southern food culture.
