After reading Zagats list of the 11 Hottest Restaurants in Charleston, I thought I'd post my own HOT 11. Mostly, because I had some BIG issues with their list. (Tourist Porch? Really?) Take a look, take a bite, and let me know what you think:
11. Home Team BBQ
10. Dave's Carry-out
9. Co
8. The Lot
7. Brasserie Gigi
6. Xiao Bao Biscuit
5. Lee Lee's Hot Kitchen
4. The Ordinary
3. The Obstinate Daughter
2. Edmund's Oast
1. Two Boroughs Larder
Does "Hot" mean mean "best" or does it mean "newish and trendy", I definitely think The Ordinary, the Daughter, Oast, XBB (still).
ReplyDeleteAs much as I love Dave's, you'll never hear folks saying "I can't wait to go downtown to go to Dave's".
My list which means super popular and kind of new (no order)
1. The Ordinary
2. XBB
3. Two Boroughs (even though its over 3 years old!)
4. Lee Lee (even though its super overrated)
5. Edmund's Oast
6. Indaco (another place that has ~~ food)
7. Bay St Biergarten (even though service, food and crowd is blah)
8. Obstinate daughter
9. Basico (N. Charleston for Mt. Pleasanites)
10. The Palace (Shep's place! in the ghetto!?)
