Real Estate

In case you missed it, we asked what you’d like to see go into the open storefront in ONE City Plaza — where Reid’s Fine Foods closed last month. Here were some of our favorite answers.

Festival

Brunchin’ is a habit. “Bubbly Side Up! A Brunch Festival” is coming up on Saturday, March 2 at the Events at Judson Mill site on Easley Bridge Road. Get tickets for sweet + savory brunch dishes, mimosas and Bloody Mary’s, and live music.

Seasonal

Double Stamp Brewery + Swamp Rabbit Cafe and Grocery are teaming up for S’mores and Pours every Friday in January. Swing by Double Stamp Brewery between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. or Swamp Rabbit Cafe and Grocery between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m., buy a $6 s’mores kit, and sip on Double Stamp craft brews.

Eat

Make those reservations. Restaurant Week South Carolina kicked off Thursday, Jan. 11 and runs through Sunday, Jan. 21.

Whether you’re looking to try something new or visit an old favorite, participating restaurants offer special deals to entice Greenvillians to get out and eat local.

Here are five spots with menu offerings we can’t wait to taste:

Roost, 220 N. Main St.

With a new chef in the kitchen, Roost is serving up three courses for $35. We’ve already had a taste of of Chef Zac’s roasted burrata + the bananas foster bread pudding, and we highly recommend them.

Curean, 732A S. Main St.

Although the menu is to be announced, we’re still putting Downtown Greenville’s newest restaurant on our list because we haven’t had a bite there that wasn’t a 10 out of 10. Whatever the specials, this is a Restaurant Week must-do.
