Scene
Not that it needs stating, but in case you haven’t heard lately, Charleston has superb restaurants. And, yes, it needs its own festival. Charleston Wine + Food Festival is a five-day celebration of the city’s food, its chefs, visionaries, restaurateurs and Charlestonians in general. It includes 100+ events, classes, brunches, dinners and workshops. Marion Square in downtown is the hub of festival activity over the five days and 28,000 attend each year, according to organizers. You can expect out-of-towner culinary bold names among the tons of prominent Charleston names.
