The one aspect missing from most of our modern dining is a heritage that for generations has been a part of our way of life - Hospitality. Last August, one of our patrons and two of her colleagues from New Jersey had been to Natchez on a Saturday excursion and decided to stop in for the evening meal, on their way back to Jackson. It was a rather busy Saturday night and my wife informed them that it would be a 30-minute wait before a table would be available. Celia offered the living room to wait in or they could sit on the front porch and enjoy the swing. They choose the front porch. Sensing that maybe they were a little tired and worn from the day's activities, she served them iced tea while they were waiting. No big thing, but it is the way we treat our guests. A table became available and I believe they had an enjoyable evening. A few days later the young lady was in for lunch and remarked to Celia that she had played the part to the “hilt". My wife did not understand what part. The young lady explained that her two colleagues had remarked "That now they knew the meaning of true Southern Hospitality". Celia confided to me that it was no part, but what she would do for any visitor in our home. I believe is part of a heritage handed to her and her sister from their mother and grandmothers. When someone comes through your front door, you treat him or her as if they were family. Not only offering your company the best in food and service, but the best of yourself. It is a tradition passed down from generations and hopefully we can instill this same spirit in our children. Ms Celia & Ms Sybil come from a traditional Southern family, where hospitality and graciousness are part of their heritage. This tradition continues at Porches under their influence. |
