Charleston
in South Carolina

If you have your finger on the pulse of what's going on in food, then you've probably heard of Charleston. One of the oldest cities in America - and probably one of the most European - Charleston is incredible. Stunning, colourful stucco houses pepper the oak-lined streets, and the food is some of the best in the U.S. It's about time you checked it out.
