Chef Enrika Williams and Glenda Barner (Sugar's Place)

from Soul Sessions Jackson · host Visit Jackson

On today's show, we're talking about Southern food traditions with two women who are keepers of those traditions in very different ways. Chef Enrika Williams trained at a culinary school in Atlanta and came home to Jackson, the city that's always felt like endless possibilities for her imagination and creativity. And Glenda Cage Barner opened Sugar's Place on West Griffith Street with her son, Chef Donovan Barner, in 2008. Named for her mother, Velma—everyone called her Sugar—the restaurant feeds everyone from law students to judges, bringing people together over soul food.
