Food Network host Paula Deen started her restaurant in Savannah by delivering bagged lunches to office workers in Savannah in 1989. She started the business with $200 and lots of help from her sons and appropriately named it "The Bag Lady". In 1991, after two successful years of "The Bag Lady" and doing catering jobs as well, Paula was able to lease space at the Best Western and open her own full-service restaurant, "The Lady", a dream come true. By 1996 Paula had such a following of happy patrons that she bought and renovated the old Sears building in Savannah and opened "The Lady and Sons". She also published her first two cookbooks at around this time. Fortunately, the restaurant's success didn't stop there and a larger building was purchased in Savannah's Historic District and opened in 2003. Having been called the "Queen of Southern Cuisine" Paula currently hosts two shows on the Food Network (Paula's Party and Paula's Best Dishes), has published eight cookbooks, has her own signature cookware, and tours the country doing cooking shows. You won't just enjoy dinner at "The Lady and Sons" you'll savor the experience, so y'all come and eat at "The Lady and Sons".
