charleston: eating in the low country

our charleston experience would not be complete without a (big) food entry. we definitely got a good taste of “low country” food.

our first night in charleston, at “low country bistro”. frogmore stew and a local brew.

we went full-out for our thanksgiving dinner at “hank’s seafood restaurant”. passed on the turkey for some amazing seafood. fried oysters with okra, a bouillabaisse (it was soooo good) and a banana cream pie for dessert (also reeeally good).
