Grits, good BBQ, sweet tea, shrimp and grits, collard greens, fried okra....etc. I've spent plenty of time there and it still gets to me that northern Virginia is still technically the south, but it doesn't have any of the great characteristics of the south. Also, any southern/country/soul food restaurant there doesn't even come close to a cheap mom and pop place actually in the south. The food is always bland and it's as if they're afraid to use seasoning or make the food spicy at all. Cook it with some fat back and cover it with Mrs. Dash and Texas Pete.
