Fried chicken, okra, biscuits, sweet tea and pecan pie — it's enough to make any food lover dream of lazy summer days in the South. Happily, Southern food has found a home in the North, where it has grown in popularity in the past three years. The Museum of the City of New York held an event to discuss the social history of "the great migration" of food from the South. In partnership with the Southern Foodways Alliance and Mississippi Development Authority/Division of Tourism, the museum invited Jessica B. Harris, Ted Lee, and John T. Edge to discuss how Southern food has influenced what and how we eat in New York City.
