On Thursday, I returned to another favorite of mine. PinPoint is located in the heart of Wilmington and is known for using seasonal, locally-sourced ingredients to craft refined Southern cuisine. The dimly lit historic building offers a charming ambiance. With a focus on sustainability and...
I know many of you think that I eat all my breakfast meals at Cast Iron Kitchen. That is just gossip; there are several other good breakfast/brunch places in Wilmington that I visit regularly. One of these is the Eternal Sunshine Cafe. The Eternal Sunshine Cafe is owned by Michael...
On a chilly February Thursday night, you’ll have an easy time getting a reservation at Three10. It’s a great time to pick the brains of the waitstaff before they ready themselves for the weekend rush. There’s a charming patio with lots of seating which you pass through on the way in the...

Luigi’s Trattoria is my favorite Italian restaurant in the Myrtle Beach area. It is located one building off of Kings Highway (17) on the north side of Myrtle Beach proper (as opposed to the town of North Myrtle Beach, which is another 10 miles or so north). It doesn’t have one of...
I had the pleasure of eating at True Blue for dinner again. True Blue is one of a small number of restaurants in Wilmington that delivers the quality you’d expect for an upscale restaurant every single time for every single item on the menu. Tonight, we started with an appetizer of...
Jerry’s is a long time Wilmington restaurant that seems to get overlooked by far too many residents. It is located at a prime location where Wrightsville Avenue ends at Eastwood Road just before Eastwood crosses the bridge on Wrightsville Beach itself. It sits in a low key strip mall...
