Charleston City Paper: Charleston Restaurants in 2019
Sure we love meeting new people and starting crazy new adventures, but sometimes we get a little nervous about coming into a new city that knows how to cook a hog (and then some). That’s why we were so relieved and excited to see the Charleston City Paper give us a shoutout in their 2019 restaurant roundup. Food ain’t no joke in one of the South’s oldest cities, and we can’t tell you how happy we are that they’ve welcomed us into the fold.
