Any trip back to Columbia means family and a few must-stop spots. Lizard’s Thicket will always be special (it’s where I first introduced my wife to my family), and the buffet at Brookland Baptist Church never disappoints. I shared more of my Columbia favorites with @Southern_Living. Check it out! southernliving.com/craig-mel…
