With the recent launch of www.dantnation.com I've decided to step up my game. I'm going to take you guys on a little adventure down the back woods to a little place called Phillips Grocery. Now, when it comes to Oxford, MS, the food scene is extensive and diverse. For all you college kids looking for a good pregame with great food this is your place. For all of you non-natives looking for a taste of the town.... look no further. First of all Phillips does not serve alcohol, but the cool thing is they do brown bag. If you've never brown bagged it's just BYOB (liquor) essentially. The atmosphere is very original they have unique pictures and a very quaint shack type location.To start out there is only one option for an appetizer as far as I see, the corn nuggets. Your probably saying corn nuggets? Take my word for it, they are some serious fire. Somehow they roll a bunch corn together and fry it in a way it looks like chicken nuggets. They're perfect. I know I probably had you at fried. Seriously though, this is the stuff of legends, Paula Deen worthy. Phillips has been considered to have the best burger in town. I would tend to agree. Always go with the cheeseburger and bacon, and as a side you have to get the seasoned fries! They also have amazing sweet potato fries. If your not a fan of burgers and your looking for a little afternoon delight try out the shrimp po boy or catfish(fried, naturally).This is the most "Oxford" restaurant that I've been to. It's a great place to pre-game the bars, and a great place to take your family to. I've brought my family here numerous times, and they haven't been let down. It's a great taste of the town, and cheaper than virtually everything on the square. It's a regular staple to my diet. Not to brag or anything, but I have a damn good diet. Good food, good times, on the reg.
