There's so much that is flat out ridiculous and misguided from your posts I don't have enough time left today to go point by point, but would just say that anyone looking to visit should ignore these posts wholesale. I found the part about people not having enough money to make it to FL settling here particularly entertaining. It is a lot of things but where the poors end up is not one of them

This. You mentioned you hadn't been here since 2016. A restaurant that opened in 2018, Chubby Fish, was just listed as the number 7 restaurant in the country by Food and Wine Magazine. Charleston overall was ranked 7th and then 5th for best cities for neighborhood restaurants. We had 6 local chefs nominated for James Beard awards this year. That's pretty crazy when you think about just how small the city is. (Michelin doesn't cover Charleston).

Too many awesome places to list, we're very fortunate.

Ha I was at the Music Farm Friday night. But was at the BTNW on Saturday with the gf for something as well.
