Food and People. Down home cooking and southern charm are a great asset to Savannah. Everyone knows Paula Deen and her restaurant is full of both. Her homemade chicken pot pie and gooey butter cake will give any diner the stamina to walk around this charming city...twice! Clary's Cafe cooks up the best southern breakfast I've ever had, plus fresh local seafood is a dining staple. Local artists and musicians add a well rounded energy and excitement to Savannah culture as well as the friendliest people on earth.
