Southern in the City
My good friend Jessica Mischner just launched a new blog for Garden & Gun magazine called Southern in the City. Whether you're a Southerner in New York, a New Yorker who appreciates Southern culture, or a Southerner frequenting the Big Apple, you've found the right place.
Earlier this year Garden & Gun ran a cover story I wrote about the “Southern Invasion of NYC” (April/May), a look at the explosion of Southern chefs, musicians, designers, and entrepreneurs in the Big Apple. The response was overwhelmingly positive, so we’re going to continue the coverage on my new blog, “Southern in the City.” I’ll be doing twice-weekly updates on all things Dixie in NYC, from Brooklyn’s best fried-chicken joints to hidden bluegrass bars to the rising influence of Southern designers.
Southern culture isn’t just present in New York City. It’s thriving like never before. The best new bars, shops, and restaurants all seem to have Southern roots. A majority of the tastemakers and trendsetters are Southern, too. Everywhere you go, someone’s pickling something or preserving something or handcrafting something or distilling something. Even the city’s social life has taken on a twang.
