Cooks&Books&Recipes Editors {Dee}, on Around the Southern Table:
One of the first things to note about this cookbook is its author: Rebecca Lang. If you’re looking for Southern cooking expertise, she’s got it. Some of my favorite aspects of the cookbook — aside from the most important qualification of authentically mouth-watering recipes — are the Southern Hospitality, Dining Room Tables, and Vintage Tabletop Pieces that are not only discussed at the beginning of the book but also elaborated on throughout with sidebar photos showing examples (Table Talk and Signature Pieces) and with one-page “My Southern Table” tributes from noted Southerners. These, along with color photos of all the recipes, will make you feel that you really are sitting around the author’s Southern table.
