On our way north from the Florida Authors and Publishers Association (FAPA) conference in Orlando, Florida we detoured to Savannah, Georgia for lunch. We walked around the Chippewa Square where the “Life is like a box of chocolates” scene was filmed for the Forrest Gump movie. The actual bench is now in the Savannah History Museum.
We had lunch at Six Pence Pub near the square. The air was pleasant so we enjoyed sitting out front of the restaurant and people watching. Food was great, as was the draft beer. If you visit Savannah, I recommend having lunch at the pub.
Since this was just a side trip, we left visiting the other local sites for a future visit.
