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 Working Lunch
Proud Larry’s
Larry’s has my other favorite lunchtime bar stool. During the semester’s peak busy season, I post up with my favorite lunch special on The Square—$12 for sweet tea, pasta, salad, and a slice of focaccia—before I feverishly read my homework assignments.
This week especially, take a stop to enjoy The Ronzo (pan-seared catfish with sautéed veggies and fries) in honor of our late friend, Ron Shapiro.
