![]() ![]() ![]() We of course ate fried green tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe and they were delicious. I first fell in love with the movie when I was probably in middle school, so it’s like one of those childhood dreams come true. Two months later, I’m still giddy over the fact that I really got to go here. Yes, the real one that Ruth and Idgie ran in the movie. And in Juliette, you can even eat at The Whistlestop Cafe. As it turns out, Juliette, Georgia, where Fried Green Tomatoes was filmed, is just a bit off the beaten path on the way down to Plains. It’s in that same category with Steel Magnolias – when you see it’s on television, no matter how many times you’ve watched it, you know you’re going to stop and watch it again and you know you’re going to shed a tear or two as well.Ī couple of months ago, two friends and I took an overnight trip down to Plains, Georgia to attend former President Jimmy Carter’s Sunday school class. I don’t know that there’s nothing a plate of good fried green tomatoes can’t cure and I would argue that the same could be said of the movie. I think Fried Green Tomatoes will forever stand the test of time. You’ll love eating at The Whistle Stop Cafe and seeing all the landmarks from the movie in this charming little southern town! If you’re a fan of Fried Green Tomatoes (the movie!), then you’ve got to plan a trip to Juliette, Georgia, where the movie was filmed. ![]()
