Guiltilicous Southern Crawl is totally Charleston


The most memorable days in the catering commissary are when the event calendar is completely full and the chefs are preparing all kinds of delicious food.  I tend to get spellbound by all the great sauces, incredible entrees and tasty side dishes especially when our Dixie smoker is billowing against a frozen sky.  It's totally awesome. My Guilty Meter is maxed out. Then, all of this fantastic food comes together in an Epicurean dance that is strictly cutting edge. Our goal is to make sure each menu is a gastronomic feast that's meant to be savored and pared.


Then it the middle of all this full scale production, one chef slips away and makes a surprise breakfast for everyone. How great is that?  Today's Guilty Feast was scrambled eggs. southern grits with smoked ham & red eye gravy accompanied by miniature grilled Fontina Cheese sandwiches with Orange Marmelade.  It was totally Charleston. I love that Southern crawl across my plate.


All that was missing were those warm Guiltilicious Apple Fritters with snow on top. How scrumptious does that sound.
