A much-lamented hole in the culinary scene was filled late last year when the duo behind Stella Blu and Gypsy Saloon opened Southern Cross Kitchen. Take a culinary tour of the South by plowing your way through the menu: shrimp and grits, fried chicken with greens, Creole jambalaya, Texas-style wings, and (of course) pecan pie. 8 E. First Ave., Conshohocken, (484) 344-5668, southerncrosskitchen.com.
