Real southern food is wonderful.
NOT in Tennessee! Especially if you eat kosher
Honestly- the restaurants HERE (not talking Chattanooga) have the most terrible food. They can't even make a proper grilled cheese. We went out to breakfast one time, and I ordered my usual -scrambled eggs, hashbrowns with cheese, and toast. The waitress says "No meat?" and I say "No- I don't eat pork, thank you". So they cooked my "sheet" of scrambled eggs in bacon grease.
Sorry- I could go on for DAYS!
However- I would love to go to Savannah or New Orleans and completely binge.
Homecooking, baby. LOL Most restaurants don't make good food, especially southern. Italian food in a restaurant will never compare, for example, to what you get in an Italain grandmother's home.
My grandmother could cook the most wonderful food. But she often used fat back as a seasoning ingredient-which of course is pork. LOL Collards, black eye peas, homemade butter milk biscuits, sliced tomatoes, chicken with flat dumplings mmmmmm......
I thought that kosher meant that you can't combine milk with meat at all in the same meal. So, it isn't just not eating pork, correct? Also, I thought that the bowls and plates couldn't be mixed. So, you can't eat a meal if the same pot that cooked a milk dish was used to cook meat in. Am I wrong? My hubby tried to go kosher slowly but it is very difficult to do so in some parts of the south because pork is a staple in some of the cooking. It would be interesting to start an informative thread on eating kosher.
