Select a city in Georgia
The food that you’ll find in Georgia restaurants has a lot in common with the cuisine of many other southern states, but the specifics can change quite a bit depending on which part of the state you’re in. For example, on the coast in Savannah, you’ll find plenty of high quality restaurants that offer seafood prepared in a southern style, including dishes like fried oysters and shrimp. If you’re in the Appalachian foothills in the northern part of the state near Blairsville, you’re likely to find restaurants that specialize in things like buttermilk biscuits, gravy, fried ham, and pork sausage. Deep-fried chicken, a staple food all across the south, is also generally popular all over Georgia, and many restaurants offer fried cornbread dishes such as hush puppies and hoecakes.
