Mrs. Wilkes' Boarding House is a Savannah institution, everyone says you must go there to eat, so go we did. You arrive at 11:00 to 11:30 to stand in line until a table is ready. The meal is served family style. We met some nice folks in line; a couple from Charleston and a family from Chicago that we would later eat lunch with.
Come on in and see what's cooking...
Here's a picture of the table before they served us. Top right of tree clockwise: creamed corn, collard greens, baked beans, okra succotash, barbecue pulled pork, white rice, gravy, cucumbers, sweet potatoes, turnips, macaroni and cheese, dressing, green beans, and black-eyed peas. Plus sweet tea all around! We sat down, then came the fried chicken, meatloaf, beef stew, dirty rice, squash casserole, scalloped potatoes, coleslaw, and cornbread (fried or muffins). They reminded us to save room for dessert - blueberry cobbler or banana pudding! As a fine southern gentleman, I tried everything.
Excellent Photography Article is certainly a Visual Delight for the readers on Travel and Tourism.
