After living in Oxford, Mississippi, for almost 14 years, it can sometimes feel like I’ve exhausted everything our town has to offer—especially on the culinary scene. I’ve worked in special events for over six years and in the food service industry directly and indirectly during that time, but food has remained a personal and professional passion. I have compiled for the new-to-Oxford and the settled some inside scoop of 15 food bites for under $15, making living deliciously more affordable than ever.
For the Love of Eggs
Snackbar
Snackbar is a local staple, but what do you enjoy here on a near-the-end-of-your-paycheck day? The Duck Confit Croque Madame is exactly $15, and I strongly recommend pairing it with a $5 happy hour cocktail or one of Ivy McLellan’s signature cocktails. If you’re not an egg fan (gasp!) you can always go for the Monsieur, but I promise, once you get an over-easy, fried one on top and crack the runny yolk down your duck confit, grainy mustard, and gruyere, you’ll never go back.
