Where’s the hero in the John Schnatter situation?
Schnatter's not the only one who deserves blame in what has to be a situation unmatched in its bizarreness.
The South might be just as famous for its hospitality as it is for its food. It’s no surprise, then, to find a warm, neighborhood restaurant with flavor-forward cuisine right in the heart of South Carolina Lowcountry—and that’s exactly what Kevin Johnson, executive chef and owner, has created at The Grocery.
Southern cuisine has long been characterized as a style of cooking that’s unhealthy. But at Big Jones, a fine-dining restaurant in Chicago, Southern means something entirely different—sustainability, seasonality and history. By focusing on authentic, sustainably-sourced ingredients, Paul Fehribach, executive chef and co-owner of Big Jones, showcases a style of cooking that’s true to the traditions of the dishes he creates.
