Living 2 Eat |

… from Denise S. Plunkett

Sitting high on a hill in the historic town of Warm Springs, Georgia, the Bulloch House looks like a beautiful old house from days gone by.  It is, but it’s oh-so-much-more.  Inside you will find a southern all-you-can-eat buffet that will cause you to eat until you’re in a coma.  This is country cookin’ at its finest.  A recent trip there, the home of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Little White House”, reminded me of the food I was brought up eating and the very reason we call it “comfort food.”

Sunday buffet included fried chicken, chicken and dressing, ham, shrimp, butter beans, fried green tomatoes, fried sweet potatoes dredged in sugar, sweet potato casserole, green beans, macaroni & cheese, turnip greens, red skinned potatoes, salad bar (who really eats salad at this place???), cornbread, biscuits, butter rolls.  Desserts are not included in the buffet, but are worth trying - caramel cake, chocolate cake, whipping cream pound cake, banana pudding, lemon meringue pie and chocolate chip pecan pie.  I tried the caramel cake, which was a moist 3 layer yellow cake with thick, sugary-sweet brown sugar icing.

Since my last visit, they have added frozen take-out food, which means you can take home some of their most popular dishes. 

The house is a very old southern house with lots of character.  It’s a beautiful setting for a fabulous meal.  A quaint gift shop sits next door, where you can shop if there is a short wait to get into the restaurant.

If you’re anywhere near the area, don’t miss it.  It’s truly worth the drive!
