In this episode we talk about Thomasville, one of Georgia’s Hidden Culinary Gems.   We found the oldest restaurant in Georgia there.  The Plaza Restaurant & Oyster Bar opened in 1916, and is still open today.  They have a cocktail lounge, and indoor and outdoor seating.   They serve lunch and dinner they are at 217 Broad St. 
  The Sweet Grass Dairy Cheese shop at 123 S. Broad St.  Has a nice menu, and Charcuterie Boards.  Buttermilk wants to try their Pimento cheese.  
Jonah’s at 109Jackson St.  Is a sea food restaurant.  They have Shrimp a Grits.  Peanut Butter Pie, and Key Lime Pie, for special desert.
Buttermilk does a deep dive into Pimento cheese and its origins, as well as the origins of the Pimento.
