Downtown Jackson provides a backdrop for Mississippi’s diverse culinary offerings, and in this episode we’ll sample some of the state’s most beloved restaurants: classics and newcomers alike.

Weidmann’s in Meridian is still going strong after almost 150 years, providing a community anchor for generations of diners. There’s nothing like good old home cooking at places like Peggy’s in Philadelphia. Traditional tailgating fare provides energy for cheering on the Bulldogs at Mississippi State. And newcomers to Water Valley are impressing locals and national visitors alike at the BTC Grocery.
