Do you remember enjoying a meal at that famous restaurant, and wishing you could get the recipe for it? Or visiting a city for the first time, and eating at that cute little caf that everyone raved about? Well now, you literally have your cake and eat it too. Or at least the recipe for the cake. The Signature Tastes of Mississippi captures the actual recipes from the restaurants that define the culinary tastes of the state. With almost 70 recipes from every corner of the state...from the John Currence's City Grocery in Oxford, to the Original Fried Pickles at the Hollywood Cafe, these are the restaurants and signature recipes that define the Magnolia State.

Enjoy, burp, and reminisce about those fine meals at City Grocery.
