The Flying Biscuit Cafe Cookbook

Atlanta's down-home but world-wise Flying Biscuit Cafe has earned accolades locally and nationally from Bon Appétit, Gourmet, and Zagat, among others.

In The Flying Biscuit Cafe Cookbook, Delia Champion shares favorite recipes that have led her customers to consider the cafe a "cult comfort restaurant," in the words of the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Easy recipes for Banana Bread French Toast, Vegetable Cobbler, Jack Daniel's Espresso Black Bean Chili, and Carmelized Sweet Grits are sure to please. Naturally, the namesake Flying Biscuits are a centerpiece-in soups, salads, sandwiches, and even empanadas. (Fear not, carb counters: there are plenty of flour-free offerings.)

The Flying Biscuit Cafe Cookbook is the long awaited second cookbook from Atlanta's immensely popular Flying Biscuit Cafe, consistently hailed as one of Atlanta's top ten restaurants since it opened its doors in 1993. Brimming with one of a kind recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and of course -"flying biscuits"- it's the only cookbook you need to get to the heart of authentic Southern comfort food.

Delia Champion grew up in a town where her parents' taproom was a fixture in the community. She enjoyed the energy and excitement of cooking for a crowd. She moved to Atlanta and started waiting tables at a popular seafood restaurant while dreaming of her own place where people could have breakfast all day, with healthy local foods and fair prices. Friends bought into her dream, and from the moment that her Flying Biscuit Cafe opened its doors, it became a southern culinary landmark.
