Review of the book The Southern Foodie by Chris Chamberlain

This book is a cookbook that looks into Southern resturants and what they cook. The author gives a background on the resturant and the history of the resturants and then gives us a receipe of their famous dish so we can make it at home.

The first recipe I thought I would enjoy is a simple pot roast dish. its from a restaurant called cotton row.  The second recipe I liked was cornbread. It came from a resturant called Irondale cafe. This resutrant was made famous by the movie fried green tomatoes by Fannie Flagg that was made in 1992 by the same name. Everyday they make 77 plus pounds of tomatoes and go through the fryer everyday.

The next two recipes that sounded great were chocolate pound cake by a restaurant called Lulu's at homepart and it sounds great because I used to celebrate holidays like thanksgiving and my aunts used to make this dish and I always loved it.  The second one is called bubble bread, I haven't heard of this before it sounds yummy. Its like a giant cinnamon roll I guess because its made with dinner rolls, cinnamon, vanilla pudding mix, butter and brown sugar. All that sounds good to me and its made by a restaurant called the waysider.

The final restaurant that sounded good to me was in South Carolina and they make something called brocolli cornbread at a restaurant called Virginia's on Kings.

This not really a christian book like I have reviewed in the past but it was fun to review and keep and I am giving it to my mom for her enjoyement as well.
