Full, Matured and Perfect! Savannah is full of life, in a mellow kind of way -- respectful, playful, graceful. Many have called Savannah a "living museum"; yet, this is where we robustly LIVE, SAVOR, and ENJOY the treasures, rather than gawk at them. The full, mature and rich arbors of Live Oak and Palm trees form a perfect canopy to shade strolls down sidewalks and people watching from park benches.
Cured and Developed: During the early developed of the Georgia colony in Savannah, swampy lands brought Yellow Fever. City fathers developed a cure, by altering the lowest landscapes in the downtown area.
Flavorful, full-flavored, sapid: From our Jones Street neighbor, Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room (once Mrs. Wilkes Boarding House), the flavorful food and southern cooking specialties are world famous! Travelers venture to The Grey, Florence, Noble Fare, Alligator Soul, Wiley's Championship BBQ, and North Beach Grill (Tybee Island) for full-flavored, even sapid cuisine.
Juicy: The character-rich, storied city has juicy tales, like those of prohibition and speakeasies. Georgia peaches and boiled peanuts are deliciously juicy, too!
