Summary: Takes me back
Comment: I enjoyed many meals at Mrs. Wilkes Boardinghouse during my six year tenure in beautiful Savannah, GA. I can't tell you how the atmosphere and family-style serving add to these wonderful recipes. You wouldn't think they could get any better, but you'd just have to go there and see for yourself! The experience just takes you back to another time. You're seated at large tables with other folks who've waited in line (that wraps around the corner and down the block on most days) right along with you. Then they bring out the food (there's no ordering, everyone gets the same thing) and it's passed family-style around the table. There is nothing like it. I highly recommend a visit to Mrs. Wilkes Boardinghouse which is located on Jones Street (between Bull and Tattnal Streets) in the heart of the historic district.

Summary: Just like mom use to make.
Comment: I enjoy the stories interlaced with the recipes in this book. I am looking forward to making pies, macaroni and cheese, and many of the other wonderful recipes in this cookbook. I think new cooks would find the recipes easy to follow, and everyone would find the stories entertaining.

Summary: Raves from Transplanted Magnolia
Comment: I have over 100 cookbooks in my collection, so it is rare that I will sit down and read a new one cover-to-cover -- but that's exactly what I did last night with Mrs. Wilkes. Setting aside the recipes for a moment, her description of life in the South in my parents' era is priceless. Now for the food: also priceless! I've been searching for years for my great-aunt's recipe for Coconut Cake -- Mrs. Wilkes has it. My Mother never fixed Creamed Corn from scratch - but Mrs. Wilkes does. All those dishes you remember fondly from family reunions and favorite aunts - they're here! Mrs. Wilkes has them! Hurrah!
