\u00a0As some of you know, in addition to my charity work and dessert company, I am also a restaurant reviewer for a local newspaper. \u00a0I love trying new foods and new places, and I really wanted to get to know traditional Southern cuisine. \u00a0I visited a lot of different places, from small cafes, to Paula Deen\u2019s famous The Lady and Sons. \u00a0Here are my top three, and if you\u2019re ever in the Charleston or Savannah area, you should check them out!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For true Southern cuisine, try\u00a0<a title=\"VOK\" href=\"http:\/\/www.virginiasonking.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Virginia\u2019s On King<\/a>\u00a0in Charleston. \u00a0Their sweet potato fries and tomato soup are absolutely delicious!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"GFC\" href=\"http:\/\/www.goosefeatherscafe.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Goose Feathers Cafe<\/a>\u00a0in Savannah offers really good breakfast food and pastries at great prices. \u00a0Their cinnamon rolls literally melt in your mouth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>My\u00a0absolute favorite place was\u00a0<a title=\"RSS\" href=\"http:\/\/www.riverstreetsweets.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">River Street Sweets<\/a>\u00a0in Charleston. \u00a0Their candies were phenomenal! \u00a0Their chocolate-dipped marshmallows, nut clusters, and coconut patties were delicious, and their pralines\u2026ah, their pralines. \u00a0TOO good! \u00a0Everything we tried there was good, and left us wanting more. \u00a0If you\u2019re in the mood for some yummy treats, I would definitely recommend ordering some chocolate-covered goodness, and don\u2019t forget the pralines!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1462\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter ratio-wrap-center\" style=\"width:300px;\"><div style=\"width: 300px;\" data-width=\"300\" class=\"ratio-wrap\"><div class=\"ratio-box\" style=\"padding-bottom: 75% !important;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1462  lazyload\" title=\"2011-08-28 Hilton Head (200)\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-200-300x225.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-200-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-200-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/img><\/div><\/div><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Homemade Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese on Texas Toast...too good!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1460\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter ratio-wrap-center\" style=\"width:300px;\"><div style=\"width: 300px;\" data-width=\"300\" class=\"ratio-wrap\"><div class=\"ratio-box\" style=\"padding-bottom: 75% !important;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1460  lazyload\" title=\"2011-08-28 Hilton Head (470)\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-470-300x225.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-470-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-470-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/img><\/div><\/div><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yummy pastries at Goose Feathers Cafe<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1463\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter ratio-wrap-center\" style=\"width:300px;\"><div style=\"width: 300px;\" data-width=\"300\" class=\"ratio-wrap\"><div class=\"ratio-box\" style=\"padding-bottom: 75% !important;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1463  lazyload\" title=\"2011-08-28 Hilton Head (212)\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-212-300x225.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-212-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/2011-08-28-Hilton-Head-212-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/img><\/div><\/div><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">The best pralines in the South!<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6><\/h6>\n<h6>Thank you, Charleston and Savannah for showing us true Southern hospitality!<\/h6>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join me on my food tour of the South!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1467,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[212,210,213,214,209,211,215],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1455"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1455"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1455\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1457,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1455\/revisions\/1457"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1467"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lacasadesweets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
