Heritage Fest Food

 


 In the South, food isn't just something you eat.  It's the reason for friends and family to gather around a table and share stories, jokes and enjoy each other's company. While some of the Festival cooks demonstrate how to prepare native dishes such as greens, hot water cornbread and peach cobbler, there are others who follow recipes for traditional foods such as Choctaw fry bread or Hebrew Challah that have been passed down for generations.  Tradition bound but still dynamic, the changing face of Memphis is also represented at the Festival by dishes like Chinese Fried Rice.
