A childhood friend came to town for a work trip recently. When she got done with the conference on Friday, we decided to check out a new spot in town. She is always down for a good time. My husband had to work so he missed out. I’ve heard good things about Lewis Barbecue, a…

Social Burger
We are trying to knock new spots in town (#yeahTHATGreenville) off of our list. Social Burger is a walk-up hamburger concept in the new Camperdown development in downtown Greenville. The prices seemed reasonable. I’m always game to try a new burger! The Main Event We went right when it opened so there was no line….
Coral
This relatively new seafood eatery is located beside the flagship Rick Erwin‘s on Main Street in downtown Greenville. We picked this trendy spot to celebrate our eighth anniversary. They have free valet parking which is clutch, especially downtown on a Friday night. I liked the overall modern aesthetic and interior design but it is fairly…
Cartwright Food Hall (Greer, SC)
The new food court (a.k.a. artisanal lifestyle eatery) is officially open in Greer, SC. Chris and I checked it out on opening weekend and then went back two weeks later with my sisters to try more options. Both times we went the owners were there making the rounds and greeting customers which was a nice…
Saskatoon Steaks, Fish and Wild Game
After years of talking about it, we finally made it to Saskatoon for Chris’s birthday. The name says it all. Think hunting lodge with lofty ceilings and wood as far as the eye can see. There was even a wooden grizzly bear at the entrance and a fireplace in the foyer. This place is the…
Papi’s Tacos
After checking out this small restaurant, I now think of the Saturday Night Live sketch with Chris Farley shouting about “living in a van down by the river” when it comes to mind but I digress this is a food blog. I heard of Papi’s a few years ago when it was mentioned in an…
Burgers and Bakery (Spartanburg, SC)
Chris was chomping at the bit to try out Burgers & Bakery. He heard about it from a co-worker and thought it sounded like our kind of place. One Saturday, we started off towards Spartanburg. The restaurant is located very close to the Spartanburg city limits. If you aren’t looking for the turn, you’ll miss…
The Lazy Goat
Now that we are in our eighth year of marriage, we are running out of new spots to try for major holidays. There is a good bit of turnover in the #yeahTHATgreeenville restaurant scene so there are always new places to try but not places on the anniversary/birthday/Valentine’s Day level. In 2022, Valentine’s Day was…
CAMP (Downtown Greenville)
For my birthday this summer, I wanted to try a new eatery in the Camperdown development in the heart of downtown Greenville. My husband and I had been watching the construction for the past couple of years. I read about CAMP, a modern American eatery, in a GVL Today newsletter. Its claim to fame is…
