Sombra Mexican Kitchen, the upscale Mexican newbie in Ridgeland’s The Township, makes some serious margaritas… From their simple House Margarita, to their ritzier ones (we love The Township Margarita), to their Sangria Margaritas (in this case, two rights definitely do not make a wrong!), we have yet to find one that lets us down. Since [...]
When we find a menu item that is so good, and so exciting, and so worth writing about, and so sleep depriving (because we are so excited about it), we like to write about those items in a column called The DISH. This edition of The DISH is such a good one. We found it [...]
Valentine’s Day is fast approaching! One of the most classic ways to impress your valentine is to shower him or her with food and sweets. A good meal, some cupcakes, some candy, some chocolate… We’re pretty sure it’s human nature to enjoy sweets-eating, and what better day to indulge in all things sweet than on [...]

After a fun yet intense night of tasting Bread Pudding from all over the Jackson area at the first ever Eat Jackson’s Bread Pudding Throwdown, the official judges (was that you?) named The Parker House in Ridgeland as home to the Overall Best Bread Pudding in Jackson. Chef Andy Cook says this dessert staple was already on [...]
There are few things in life better than Grandma’s cookin’. Even if Junior doesn’t like spinach, you know he’ll eat (and like) the Spinach Casserole his grandmother makes. Grandmas everywhere are as talented in the kitchen as seasoned lawyers are in the courtroom, and nothing warms a grandmother’s heart more than to see her grandkids [...]
Today is a day of great importance in the food world. Today is a momentous holiday that we here at Eat Jackson believe should be recognized the world over. Today is National Chocolate Cake Day. We eagerly anticipate the return of this “holiday” year after year because, well, we love chocolate cake! Celebrating Chocolate Cake… [...]
As National Soup Month, which we’ve affectionately named Operation: Soup Celebration rounds third (yes, January is over halfway gone! Hard to believe…), Eat Jackson would like to direct your attention to a very special soup (ahem, GUMBO) from Primos Café. The Seafood Gumbo from Primos Cafe is one that has been perfected by a family [...]
#EatFREE Lunch National Food Holiday Ridgeland Supper
Butternut Squash Bisque from Mint the Restaurant National Soup Month, which we here at Eat Jackson have dubbed Operation: Soup Celebration, continues with a soup unlike any other (in our opinion). This object of our affection is the winter vegetable-based delight from Mint the Restaurant found on their menu as: Butternut Squash Bisque. The first time [...]
It was late on a Friday afternoon. It had been such a busy day that I’d not even thought about what my husband and I were going to do for supper. He had plans to leave town shortly after he got home from work (to go hunting), so we wouldn’t have time to eat out [...]
