"That's a crisp breast in the foreground on the partitioned plate, rutabaga to the left, a block of mac & cheese in back. Not pictured: lima beans."

"When you get off I-95, you'll see this old sign by the side of Route 301 ... pointing the way to a classic Roadfood meal."
Michael Stern
"This meat and three plate shows baked ham in the foreground, collard greens on the left, and mashed potatoes with cream gravy in back. The third side dish was pickled beets, in their own little bowl."
Michael Stern
"Soft and spicy, stewed apples are a good companion for any savory lunch (or for breakfast ham, too!)."
Michael Stern
"Southern ice is colder than northern ice ... or so it seems when you get a tall tumbler of good sweet tea in a place such as the Summerton Diner. The glass is loaded with shaved ice; the tea is sweet, but not TOO; and of course, refills keep coming as long as you keep drinking."
Michael Stern
"Although it was expanded and remodeled a while ago, the Summerton diner is still a very small place, and is often full-up at lunch time."
Michael Stern
"Balmy banana pudding. It's a small serving, part of the $6 lunch special, but it is a Dixie paradigm: soft and sweet."
