“[Fannie Flagg’s Original Whistle Stop Cafe Cookbook] will make for some mighty fine eating.”—Fort Worth Star-Telegram
 
“No matter where you come from, East or West, North or South, and no matter if your cafe was called the Whistle Stop, the Busy Bee, the Melrose Diner, or the Chatter Box, close your eyes, forget your troubles, and come on back home with me for just a little while. . . .”
 
After the tremendous success of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe and the hit movie that followed, Fannie Flagg received thousands of requests from all over the world asking for recipes from the little café of her Alabama childhood that was the inspiration for the cafe in her novel.
 
Now she joyfully shares those recipes in what may well be the first cookbook ever written by a satisfied customer rather than a cook! In Fannie Flagg’s Original Whistle Stop Cafe Cookbook, you’ll find over 150 wonderful recipes for:
