Louis Osteen to Close Pawley’s Restaurant
July 31, 2008 – 8:59 am
I can’t say I’m surprised to read in The State this morning that Louis and Marlene Osteen will be closing up Louis’s Restaurant in Pawley’s Island to focus on their new Vegas venture.
I wrote a story about the Osteens back in February, after visiting their new restaurant in Las Vegas. Louis is the kind of […]

CP Foodie Intern does the Palette & Palate Stroll
July 14, 2008 – 4:10 pm
I’m an art fan. I love contemporary painting, abstract impressionism, sculpture using different mediums, but I’m not gonna lie. As far as I’m concerned, this event might as well have been called the Palate and Palate and Palate Race Toward Diabetes. When it came down to having platters of endless hors’ doeuvres made by Charleston’s […]

WOW! What a treat it was recently when Sean Brock called up and invited me out to view the McCrady’s Farm (including the new pork project that helps turn the farm waste into sausage) and for dinner at the Wadmalaw Supper Club, a private club of farmers and good ole’ boys that have been gathering […]

Food Network Audience Needed
March 17, 2008 – 10:48 am
It’s probably too late, and I apologize for not getting this up in a more timely manner, but the Food Network is filming a segment on Robert Carter’s famed coconut cake from Peninsula Grill. Guest sign-in started at 11:30 a.m. at Lowndes Grove (266 St. Margaret St.). They need a live television audience for […]
Brett McKee’s a Legend
March 7, 2008 – 4:41 pm
After barely losing out as Best Chef in this year’s Best of Charleston readers’ poll, Oak Steakhouse’s Brett McKee was able to lick his wounds and lap up a pretty big accolade: the 2008 Culinary Legend Award at last week’s Charleston Food + Wine Festival.
Brett was lauded for his “culinary innovation, firecracker personality, and […]
