    My wife’s homemade chicken riggies. She’s been perfecting them for years. Absolutely incredible.
    That looks good.  Tell me about the sauce.

    Not sure exactly what’s in it, but tomatoes, peppers, onion, hot cherry pepper, Romano cheese, and a touch of heavy cream. Beyond that I cannot replicate it as she adds pinches of this and that. It needs to simmer for at least 3 hours, but honestly if you put it in the fridge for a day and then reheat it’s 10 times better. It’s great but it’s always even better the next day.

    Back and settled from a few days in Charleston. Gonna have a Sunday…

    Cheese, jamon, olives…followed by braised lamb shanks over polenta. Oh and this beast who is currently breathing

    💯 
    (Although Bretty is not the preferred name, lol)
    The Dewberry is awesome.  Seriously a top 10 hotel for us.  Upgrade the room. Worth spoiling yourselves.

    Fig was amazing
    Husk was strong
    Ate at a bunch of random spots and all were solid
    The BBQ place (Rodney scotts) we missed out on but everyone says is bomb

    I was there over the summer. We went to Rodney Scott’s. Definitely worth it. I agree the food there is amazing. We did brunch at a really cool place. I can’t remember the name but I will find out and post it here.

    Yeah, all my complaints about magnolias, and complaints is relative, are based on poor ordering and decision making on our side haha.

    Not understanding why an oyster is $9 or why they are 350?  It's usually a buck an oyster here maybe 2 in the off season.

    I pay $2 at cheapest on a happy hour...$4 as a standard...sometimes MP takes it up from there.  (At my fave place in both South Jersey and in Philly)

    Sure I've paid significantly more at other places.

    Oysters have gotten expensive. Even farmed are approaching $4 a pop. That said they are still one of my favorite things to eat. Raw or cooked.

    I should have mentioned that is market price not restaurant price.  In a restaurant I have seen $4 for a 1/2 dozen.  I usually buy them from the market at buck a piece.

    The market has them at off season price for $20 a dozen.
