With the weather finally warming up, now is the perfect time to have a picnic with friends or family. There are charcuterie services in Savannah and the Lowcountry that do most of the work for you, so all you have to do is show up. Scenic Siesta This bookable lounge and picnic experience offers cheese […]

I must admit, at first I was afraid. I was petrified. I’d heard a few weeks ago that Savannah’s Jewish Food Festival, affectionately referred to as “Shalom Y’all” was moving out of Forsyth Park. The person that told me immediately had my undivided attention. I thought there must be some mistake. Shalom Y’all and Forsyth

I’m asked all the time about ideas for food. Locations, concepts and cuisines. Once upon a time I was asked about the idea of opening on MLK Junior Blvd downtown Savannah. “What do you think of a Vegan Food Truck?” was the latest inquiry. My answer, most of the time anyway, is the same. Good

Here we find ourselves, once again, in the midst of another holiday season. Whether your celebration is Hanukah or Christmas, Kwanzaa or none at all, it’s undeniably that time of year that people yearn for the slower pace that a well deserved day off (or five) can bring. (Whether we get that slow down is

I tried to sit down and do the math and figure out exactly when was the last time I was in a kitchen cooking something on our television show. It has certainly been a while. Well over a year. At the end of the day, probably closer to two. Well, if I had a nickel

In a city full of pretty women, she is arguably the prettiest. She kind of sits off to the side, minding her own business, waiting for people to come and talk to her. You won’t find her standing up at the front of the room waving. Rarely, anyway. She stays closer to the back. She’s
I like to joke about the Mansion on Forsyth Park being like home for me. I live a handful of blocks away from there and whenever I am in Forsyth Park enjoying an afternoon with my family, it’s not uncommon for us to take a walk through there. Usually it’s to refill our refreshments, but
