Best of West Ashley 2007
Charleston, South Carolina has long been a popular tourist destination; and why not? Great beaches and temperate climate, an historical district and Market, the South Carolina Aquarium, the USS Yorktown, the Hunley, Ft. Sumter and the list goes on. However, few tourists know what the locals know. Charleston is a peninsula with the Cooper River to the east and the Ashley River to the west. If you’re looking for great food and entertainment while in Charleston, go west, young man, go west!
West Ashley (west of the Ashley River, get it?) is a part of the City of Charleston. While primarily a bedroom community it is also the home to spectacular antebellum plantations and some of the best food to be found anywhere. Each year “YourWestAshleyGuide.com” features its “Best of West Ashley” and the 2007 awards have just been announced.
Looking for a great breakfast in West Ashley (Bear E. Patch)? How about a spot to walk your dog (West Ashley Park)? Thirsty and looking for a great West Ashley sports bar (Bobby Hartin’s), then “Best of West Ashley” is for you. The list goes from the sublime to the practical. From “The Best Place to take Friends for Dinner” (Amuse) to the “Best West Ashley Barbershop” (Ed’s), it is on this year’s list.
“The Best of West Ashley 2007” is dominated by food and restaurants with some great suggestions for places to find the best Chinese food (Red Orchid), a traditional bakery (Rococo) and even the best place to get wings (West Wings) or a pitcher of beer (T-Bonz).
“The Best of West Ashley” list is fun and lighthearted. If you’re planning a week or two in Charleston and you’re looking to rub elbows with some of the locals, then check out “The Best of West Ashley” which has a map of where to find them.
