It took place September 9 - September 20 throughout the low country and it was a week that you definitely did not want to miss and you need to mark on your calendar for next year.  Now I could list for y'all every single restaurant that participated in Restaurant Week, but it would be a very long list; so i'm just gonna cut to the chase and let you see what I got to indulge in.    Located in Downtown Charleston on Queen Street sits this amazing, down the alley local spot called 82 Queen.

Keep reading y'all.. the recipe is coming up next! As y'all know, I like helping you gather your ingredients and then getting you on your way towards a great recipe.. so why change that now.. lets go gather our ingredients. In...

Located at 129 Meeting Street, Eli's table is a local favorite for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Breakfast, which is served everyday from 7 am-3 pm, you will have to make the time to have breakfast here and have some Eggs Benedict or sweet potato pancakes.  Now y'all are probably staring off to your left at that amazing plate of food. Yes you can stare, but aren't you curious about what it is? Well keep reading and I'll tell you exactly what it is and the other great breakfast dishes I encountered on my trip to Eli's table.
