The pulse of Charleston
has been connected to its
kitchens since the late 1600s
when a rare combination
of geography, latitude, and
attitude gave rise to the
Lowcountry’s prized hyper-
local cuisine. From the
Carolina Gold rice harvested
on the banks of local rivers to
the bounty of fresh seafood,
the legacy of readily available,
high-quality ingredients is an
indelible part of the local food
culture. Today, Charleston
is a modern playground for
culinary talent, and dining
out is a form of nightly
entertainment.From high above, the Charleston area resembles a beautiful tapestry woven with shades of indigo,
marshgrass and oyster shell. Etched with barrier islands and bodies of water, the landscape has a
poetic shape. With the perfect combination of beautiful beaches, world-class cuisine, antebellum
architecture, and an endless supply of engaging things to see and do, it’s no wonder the Charleston
area is consistently named a top U.S. destination.
