Cooking in the South with Johnnie Gabriel
As a longtime friend and customer of Johnnie Gabriel’s, I am just thrilled to have my own copy of her fabulous cookbook, “Cooking In the South”. Not a birthday goes by without one of her delicious confections. Thank you, Johnnie for sharing your beloved recipes. You have also made my Christmas shopping easier for 2008!

But why isn’t the famed and delicious Chocolate Chunk cookies (*drooooooooooooool*) recipe in here?
Gabriel’s Desserts is a fabulous restaurant, and Johnnie’s cooking is amazing! Especially the cookies. (You know what cookie I’m talking about, right? *mmmmmmmchocolatemmmmmmm*)
Well laid out cookbook, fantastic food photography. Delicious and intelligent recipes. Yum.

I live in Georgia, and I have eaten at Johnnie Gabriel’s restaurant in Marietta and at Paula Deen’s restaurant in Savannah. The food at Johnnie Gabriel’s restaurant is better………..and her cookbook is great. The recipes include Southern cooking and American food……there’s something for all cooks.
Her cakes are legendary in my area of Georgia…..comprising NW Georgia and the Atlanta area. Want her cakes at your wedding? Book the cake a year in advance…….they’re that much in demand.

This is a great little book with basic southern recipes. The pictures of the finished recipe makes your mouth water just looking at them. I bought this for my granddaughter so she would always have recipes for some of our favorite foods. I recommend this book to everyone – even if you don’t cook it is interesting reading.
