"How many ways can Charleston’s food scene continue to reinvent Southern cuisine, you might ask? Turns out—at least one more, as seen at Lowland Tavern, a nouveau Southern spot from James Beard Award-winner chef Jason Stanhope inside The Pinch, a charming boutique hotel right on King Street. There are still those decadent touches that somehow taste better in a place like this (deviled eggs, biscuits slathered in farmer cheese and pepper jelly), but there are some more elegant and international turns to the menu as well, like chicken skewers dusted in Japanese furikake, or a banoffee pie that would make King Charles himself proud."
