A long weekend in Savannah

Breakfast at Collins Quarter

“The lavender mocha is the thing. Go before 9 or you queue.”

Walk Bull Street south

“Chippewa to Monterey to Forsyth. The whole point of Savannah.”

Forsyth Park

“Twenty minutes unless the fountain is on, then longer.”

Lunch at Zunzi's

“The Conquistador. Takeaway and eat it in the park.”

Mercer Williams House

“Walked past, decided the garden was enough.”

Dinner at The Grey

“Book three weeks out. Sit at the bar if you did not.”

The Marshall House

“Creaky floors, right in the middle of everything.”

Bonaventure Cemetery

“Be there at opening. By 11 it is hot and full of tours.”

Coffee at Fabrika

“Nobody rushes you. Good after an hour of walking.”

Lunch at The Olde Pink House tavern

“Downstairs, not the dining room. Same kitchen, half the fuss.”

Telfair Academy

“An hour and a half. The Bird Girl is here, not in the cemetery.”

Drinks at Artillery

“No phones. That is the rule and it is the point.”

Dinner at Cotton & Rye

“Out of the historic district and better for it.”

The Marshall House

Breakfast at Clary's Cafe

“Diner, not a destination, and that is what you want on day three.”

Wormsloe Historic Site

“The avenue of oaks is the whole thing. Ten minutes and a photo.”

Lunch at Green Truck Pub

“Burgers, local beer, no queue. Worth the short drive.”

Leopold's Ice Cream

“Honey almond and cream. The line moves faster than it looks.”

River Street

“Once, for twenty minutes, so you can say you did.”

Dinner at Common Thread

“The best meal of the trip and the quietest room.”

The Marshall House

Breakfast at Collins Quarter

“Back again. That is the review.”

Walk the squares we missed

“Lafayette and Troup. Fewer people, same trees.”

Lunch at Zunzi's

“Yes, again.”

Drive to Tybee Island → Sat in Forsyth instead and did not regret it.

“Flight was too early. Sat in Forsyth instead and did not regret it.”
