Charleston Food Adventure | Southern Comfort: Carbs & Fat Celebration
No trip to Charleston is complete without indulging in classic Southern cuisine — a glorious celebration of deep-fried, carb-loaded, and soul-satisfying dishes! (Let’s be real: what isn’t better when fried? 😆) We booked a table at Magnolias, one of Charleston’s top-rated Southern restaurants. The ambiance was upscale — think elegant decor and well-dressed patrons — which made eating fried chicken feel oddly fancy! 👔🍗 🍽️ What We Ordered: Down South Egg Roll (Appetizer): THE STAR! 🎉 Crispy fried egg roll packed with savory meat and served with a tangy peach mustard sauce — absolutely addictive! Buttermilk Fried Chicken: Okay, but underwhelming 😐 — the chicken itself was bland (KFC does it better!), but the sides — fluffy biscuit and sweet corn — stole the show! Salmon BTL Salad: Meh on its own 🥗, but when combined with sour cream and eaten in one big bite, it balanced the richness of salmon and bacon perfectly! 💬 Verdict: A fun and flavorful experience — worth trying for the atmosphere and that incredible egg roll! 📍 Magnolias 185 E Bay St, Charleston, SC 29401 #SouthernFood #ComfortFood #CharlestonEats #FoodReview #USATravel 🍴✨
