The Southern Fork

Episode 85: Jessica Grossman, Patrick Properties Hospitality Group (Charleston, SC) 22.09.2017 31:58 ↓

You know, it was simple: I missed cake. When I was little it was always somebody's birthday at school and some mom was always bringing in cake. Then in my 20s I started going to a lot of weddings, and well, I was all about the cake. But these days, not many restaurants serve cake, although I love restaurant fruit trifles and granitas and of course creme brulee (though, heads up chefs, none of that...

Episode 84: Lance Winters, St. George Spirits (Live from BevCon Charleston) 15.09.2017 31:18 ↓

In the culinary world, many of the people making things, and many of the people consuming things, are chasing memory. It could be granny's Sunday lunch or a specific time or a specific experience or place, but it's always a chase, because food and beverage can't replicate memory, nothing can, it can only be a doorway to an edge of something familiar you can't name. That's what amaro is for me, tho...

Episode 83: George & Lisa Bowen, Burbage's Grocery (Charleston, SC) 08.09.2017 27:57 ↓

As Americans, we talk a lot about Mom and Pop stores -- how we love them, how we need to "save" them -- but if you press many of us, me included, we can probably tell you the best place to park at Costco. Well, it's time to meet Mom and Pop. Four years ago, George and Lisa Bowen purchased  Burbage's Grocery , located at the corner of Broad and Savage Streets, in one of those Charleston, SC neighbo...

Episode 82: Michael Toscano, Le Farfalle (Charleston, SC) 01.09.2017 31:49 ↓

I still write extensively, and thus, I still receive a lot of food news, usually in the form of emails from PR reps. I can read beyond the hype, but when hotshot New York City chef Michael Toscano decided to come to Charleston, SC, my town, to open a restaurant in one of my former favorite downtown watering holes, well, the buzz machine seemed to hit a new level. I had the reaction that I have a l...

Episode 81: Nathalie Dupree, Author & TV Personality (Charleston, SC) 25.08.2017 34:52 ↓

I learned to cook from the women in my family for sure, but I also learned to cook from  Nathalie Dupree . Probably starting around early middle school age, I would post up by the TV on Saturday afternoons to catch many of the cooking shows on PBS, and Nathalie not only showed me how to make a coconut cake, she also taught me that, just by her presence on my screen, Southern food was worth noticin...

Episode 80: Chris Wilkins, Root Baking Co. (Charleston, SC) 18.08.2017 33:12 ↓

I write and work from home and most of the time, I work in quiet, which isn't really quiet. Right now, it's the muted sounds of birds through the windows, traffic on my street, my dog Petunia, and the late summer buzzing of cicadas. When Chris Wilkins of  Root Baking Co. stopped by my house recently to record, our recording also captured that natural working environment in the background. For me,...

I don't know about you, but sometimes when a place becomes a lunch go to and feels well, kind of like it's always been there, it's easy to overlook how wonderful it actually is. That's the way it is with Caviar & Bananas , a specialty product store and cafe that began in Charleston, SC and now has three locations in the city (including one in the airport), a location in Greenville, and is opening...
