The metro area’s food landscape seems to improve and change constantly. There’s always something new and local to try, whether it’s a new food vendor like Atlas at Cultivation Food Hall or Ed’s Burgers, which is coming to Fondren soon. But if you don’t want to try something new, there are always old favorites like Broad Street Baking Company, Beatty Street Grocery or Keifer’s. If you don’t know what to try, just ask one of the local Facebook foodie groups such as Jackson Foodies or Eat Mississippi #TriCountyFoodies. They have regular meet-ups, and someone always knows of a hidden Jackson gem. — Amber Helsel
