Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Few cities can boast the charm of Savannah, Georgia—a place bursting with eccentricity, inimitable beauty, and heavenly victuals. SAVORING SAVANNAH is the first book to bring together the unique character of Savannah cuisine through the creations of her leading chefs. Featuring five chefs, all with regional name recognition, whose styles range from traditional Savannah cooking to New Southern cuisine, SAVORING SAVANNAH takes Southern cooking beyond just grits and greens to a new level of regional creativity. These chefs place their own delectable twist on Southern food, updating many Low Country ingredients and dishes while introducing us to the places and people that make Savannah what it is. Each chef contributes two feast menus, complete with all the recipes and lore you’ll need to relish the true taste of Savannah.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Ideas for Southern Hospitality, June 17, 2003

By	Joanne Oler (Greensboro, NC USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Savoring Savannah: Feasts from the Low Country (Hardcover)

This is a beautiful book with plenty of photographs. The recipes are Southern Inspired, but with healthy ingredients (not so much butter and fat as traditional recipes). It is worth the price just for the BBQ Ribs recipe - they are divine! Lots of great menu ideas. It features recipes from several famous chefs in the area. Very worthwhile if you are looking for some ideas for regional cuisine.
