Travels of Jackie and Randy: Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil? No, lunch at Clary's Cafe

Recently we were in Savannah and went to Clary's Cafe for lunch. We've tried to eat here a couple times before but it was always closed when we were in town. This day it was open, so we finally got to try it.

Clary's is a popular local spot that became a popular tourist spot when it was included in that most famous of Savannah stories, "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". They do play it up the connection, but not so much that it gets in the way. On one wall is a series of photos of actors from the movie, and on another wall is a stained glass interpretation of the book's cover.

The restaurant is reported to be open since 1903, and our waitresses might have be part of the original staff (just kidding, but not by much). The lunch special that day was a Fried Chicken sandwich, so I ordered that. Fried chicken, bacon, cheese, and fries on the side = a great lunch!

But they are best known for their Corned Beef Hash, so Randy ordered that. Their hash does not have as much potato in it as we expected, and therefore it was a smaller portion than we expected. But it had an excellent flavor; this would be something to order again.
