In Pensacola, Florida, you'll find The Coffee Cup, according to John T. Edge, a "de facto clubhouse, the place where cops and attorneys, drywall hangers and artists, dilettantes and debutantes gather to eat grits and eggs in the morning."
An adaptation of The Coffee Cups' grits recipe appears in Edge's Southern Belly: The Ultimate Food Lover's Companion to the South, and that recipe in itself is a riff on one passed on to The Coffee Cup through many hands. Now, it passes to you.
If you'd like to read more about The Coffee Cup and other Southern delights, grab a copy of Southern Belly for yourself.
