The Agnes & Muriel's Cookbook

Any day of the week, you'll find an eclectic crowd lined up for the big portions of food you wish your mom cooked at the funky retro eatery Agnes & Muriel's in midtown Atlanta. Now celebrating its fifth year, Agnes & Muriel's has been featured in national publications such as the Washington Post and Delta's Sky Magazine, and it was judged one of the year's ten best new restaurants by the Atlanta press in 1995. Owner Glenn Powell prides himself on easy recipes with simple steps that even new cooks can follow. Included in this delightful collection are one hundred favorite comfort-food recipes from the restaurant, including his ever-popular Fried Green Tomatoes, Pork T-Bone Chops with Apple Fritters, colorful Carmen Miranda Chicken Salad, Lemon Sesame Collards, Peach Raspberry Cobbler and Maple Pecan Banana French Toast. The namesakes Agnes and Muriel (the mothers of the restaurant's two founders) offer helpful hints for food preparation throughout. This book will delight foodies everywhere.
