Kentucky cookin' at it's best !

Since I am a transplanted Southern girl myself and enjoy some really good down home cooking once in awhile, I must say this is a must have cookbook!
The Louisville Suburban Social Club's Fish recipe (well, it's a SECRET recipe so it's close) is wonderful. I grew up on that tasty breaded fish!
Try some of the desserts and serve them to friends but step back to avoid being trampled .
Fun To Read, Fun To Cook From

There are so many Southern cookbooks out now, but this one is a keeper. Some of the books available are written either by those who haven't 'walked the walk' or who have tried updating or otherwise modifying the food we grew up with and loved.No so Ms. Lundy. She gives us the real thing, take it or leave it, with recipes from her own cooking experience. No, not all of these recipes are 'health food' in today's atmosphere of cooking-political correctness. However, these recipes need no apology. As Julia Child has always said, eat everything wisely and in moderation and you won't go wrong. I'd classify much of this book as comfort food, and besides, stress is killing more of our baby-boomer generation than food ever could! Interspersed with her recipes are delightful recollections, many of well known personalities. Buy this book and enjoy her writing as well as her recipes!

Even though this is not a vegetarian cookbook, she does provide a few meatless versions and lower fat variations on these authentic recipes.
