9 Classic Wilmington, North Carolina, Restaurants Worth a Visit | Eater Carolinas

"Thelonious Monk posters hanging on exposed brick set the mood for the Basics, which as the name suggests, focuses on perfecting “the basics” of Southern cuisine. There are hunks of hummingbird cake, Brunswick stew, and what some call the best bowls of shrimp and grits north of Charleston, South Carolina." - D.R.E. James
