Savannah Highway Waffle House Closes Temporarily After 42 Years - Eater Carolinas
"The Waffle House sitting at 325 Savannah Highway has been dark the past few days, with a dumpster out front, leaving many patrons worried. Most famously featured on the Charleston episode of Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown, the institution is championed by revelers for its quick proximity from downtown bars for much needed late-night hash browns. Do not worry though — this is only temporary. According to a sign on the door, the Savannah Highway Waffle House is merely closed for renovations. It reads: *[Ed. note: This unit closed temporarily during Hurricanes Dorian and Matthew] Eater Charleston will keep you updated on the opening of this legend, and leave you with our favorite exchange from chef Sean Brock and Bourdain’s visit to Unit 411: Brock to Bourdain on the Waffle House’s food: ”You don’t come here expecting the French Laundry. You come here expecting something amazing.” Bourdain, in response: ”This is better than the French Laundry, man.”" - Erin Perkins
