Several savory Savannah secrets are being exposed in this latest collection of the best seafood recipes from the finest chefs and restaurants in town! In Savannah Classic Seafood, a brand new cookbook due for release this February, local author Janice Shay has pulled together dozens of delicious menu items concocted by local chefs which creatively capture the signature flavors of Savannah’s freshest seafood.

Ranging from the simple pleasure of Boiled Shrimp at Tubby’s Tank House in Thunderbolt to the more fancy fare of Margarita Grilled Scallops at the Sundae Café on Tybee Island, all dishes are accompanied by beautiful color photographs of these succulent dishes, captured so brilliantly by Deborah Whitlaw Llewellyn.

Along with all the “home-cook-friendly” recipes in this book, you’ll discover interesting anecdotes about each delectable dish and the dining establishment where it’s featured. Savannah Classic Seafood brings the best that this coastal city has to offer straight to your table. This colorful collection encourages its readers to “eat fresh, eat local,” while enjoying the flavors of Savannah’s best restaurants in the comfort of your own home.

With the upcoming February release, it should be just in time to grab a copy from your local book purveyor, run by Russo’s to select some of the finest quality raw seafood in town, and be home in time to cook up some “Valentine victuals” for that special someone in your life. What better way to their heart than through their stomach!
