Charleston Eats: Halo

Across the street from MUSC where Blend used to be, a new place called Halo has opened up shop.
There’s a pretty wide selection of items on the menu from breakfasty things to sandwiches, salads and desserts.
And they have wi-fi too.
Prices are pretty reasonable with most of the sandwiches priced around the $8 mark.

Charleston Eats: MUSC

After 6 long months of construction and eating outside in the big white tent, MUSC has a shiny new cafeteria. Personally, I think the highlight of the cafeteria is the nifty rotisserie. You can stop by in the morning and have a look at what’s being rotisserie’d for lunch later on.
Today it was ribs. For cafeteria fare, the ribs were pretty decent.

Sausage & Baguette Stuffed Pork Loin with Tomato Butter / Smoked Local Farmers Market Ratatouille / Potato & Sage Gratin / Pavlova with Local Kiwi Couli & Cayenne Chocolate Ganache

Stuffed pork loin
Loved the pork loin, and the smoked ratatouille was excellent, as was the gratin.
Pavlova
Had no idea there were kiwi fruits being grown locally. The pavlova was pretty sweet and not quite to the liking of my dinner companions, but I liked it.
The pictures were taken with the new phone. They turned out fairly decent. The noise is definitely noticeable in the full resolution images, but not unexpected because of the low lighting.
