S1, EP1 "Birmingham"
Greek natives and their kin built the Birmingham restaurant scene, from barbecue joints to hotdog stands to steakhouses. Bright Star, founded in 1907, is the old guard and Johnny's is the new guard Greek restaurant.
S1, EP2 "Athens"
Pablo Rivadeneyra rotisserie-cooks lime-marinated chicken. Larry and Betty Jean Scott work a smoke-belching pit at Scott's BBQ. In these two places, we get a glimpse of the hard work that defines life in the South.
S1, EP3 "Nashville"
Sands, the soul food café, cooks oxtails and cabbage and ropy okra; Arnold's Country Kitchen, Kahlil Arnold dishes created corn, hashed turnip greens, and fried green tomatoes; the differences between black and white cooking come into focus.
S1, EP4 "Shreveport"
Herby K's is a 1936 vintage beer garden and fry house. Lucky Palace serves wol-fried-t-bones and pork egg foo young. Both of these restaurants are survivors, like Shreveport itself.
