French/Mexican fusion sounds almost as appetizing as Icelandic/Iraqi fusion cuisine with an Irish twist…

Didn’t Stalin, briefly, and Chiang Kai-shek also use that title, or at least have others use it for them?

Old school SNL sucks. Cocaine is one helluva drug and it apparently robbed the original cast of the ability to be funny with any frequency.

LOL. Wait for the way-too-obvious advertisement as the reality show gang heads there and declares it the hottest new spot in Charleston. Of course that’s assuming Southern Charm stays on the air that long.

I love good food and Charleston can use another option at the top end. This is excellent news.

I saw the wreck in front of Bernie’s chicken Friday morning. The kids in all those apartments on that side of town love that place.

Menu looks great. TBG used to live right round there in Col Moultrie’s plantation…
Back then it was “El Norte” Mexican.

I’m much more interested in seeing what the waitresses will be wearing, and how they look. Petite Mexican cuties in skimpy French maid’s outfits (I wish) … So, the Mexicans repelled the French invasion, but STOLE their recipes?

Big whoop…………………

Charleston is so over-rated

But I did like seeing the Hunley a few years back and after she is reconditioned/cleaned up, I’ll go back but that’s about the only reason for me to visit Charleston.

I got better places to spend my visiting/tourist money.

I know a great place to eat about “XXX” miles south of Charleston but I ain’t telling!!!!!!

I used to do a fair amount of HAZMAT work in the Low Country. = Thanks fer the bucks Republicans – you’re tops at fucking up this state (except for the “well-heeled” that is)

Ever see the flick “Elysium”? That type of social community is just around the corner!!!!!

Come to think of it, it kinda is now!!!!!!!

Those who can’t afford the finer places to eat here usually don’t like Charleston. Have fun in Myrtle Beach!

French/Mexican fusion with a Southern Flair? Sounds a bit busy. The menu will probably be like 18 pages long.

But, I will reserve judgement until I read someone else’s judgement.

Probably one of those deals where they cross a stalk of some vegetable with a bit of meat, and squirt a few colored drops of sauce around to simulate abstract art.. then dust it with some exotic spice and call it 50 bucks.

I wonder if the Charleston food scene has jumped the shark. The little kids at home keep me from going out as much as I used to, but the 5 or 6 brand new restaurants I’ve tried in the last year or so have been disappointing. I think it’s getting to back to the old, pre-food craze days. when you needed to find out through word of mouth if a place was a tourist trap before you went and wasted your money.

waiting for Andrew Zimmer to sample the menu for Bizzare Foods, tho’ shrump an grits and Frogmore Stew have been on the “bizzare” enough for that show. None of ’em seem to want to touch the BBQ hash though.

“French/ Mexican fusion with a Southern flare.”

Pointless and pretentious, with an extra helping of try too hard.
