"You are missing out if the only barbecue you’re eating in Charleston is smoked brisket, whole hog, or pulled pork though. This spot behind Jackrabbit Filly does Chinese barbecue with a Carolina influence in North Charleston, and it’s a fun group lunch, dinner, or happy hour move. Walk inside past the two massive 500-pound lion statues the team flew in from China that flank the entrance, place an order at the counter, and find a table under the lanterns at the bar or a booth in the main dining room. Get some smoked meats by the pound, like five-spice duck or chopped smoked pork, along with a rice plate that comes with crispy pork belly or cha shao spare ribs, bok choy, and a ginger scallion relish." - jai jones, emily yates
