Supper, Dinner, what's the difference

Growing up in the South, the evening meal was referred to as supper while the noontime meal (especially on Sunday) was dinner. Whatever you want to call it, there are several great resturants in New York serving up southern cuisine. Brunch, the popular city meal, has a plethora of options. Egg in Williamsburg serves everything from biscuits and gravy, to southern ham. Just a short trip from Manhattan, the grits will not disappoint. While I have not tried Pies'n'Thighs myself, it has recevied great reviews from patrons and critics alike. Great Jones serves delicious Jambalaya and PoBoys while Westville has in my opinion, the best meat and three. This meat and three fare was foreign to Maq though he quickly learned the joy of picking one meat and three vegetables usually cooked in some sort of fat. Where do you like to go for Southern cuisine? Next on my list is Lowcountry in the West Village. Does anyone know where I can find a good bowl of she crab soup or large stack of fried green tomatoes?

Pictured below is Adluh Flour. The home of your favorite grits and right in the middle of Columbia, South Carolina, my hometown.

And shrimp to go with the delicious grits . . .
