It’s sad to say goodbye to one of the best venues for that iconic Southern dish, shrimp and grits (and who can forget the Charleston Nasty Biscuit?), but Hominy Grill owner and chef, Robert Stehling, has moved on to his next chapter, and, so, reluctantly, must we. Don’t fret though, because thankfully we live in a culinary paradise, and there is still a plethora of fine establishments where you can find your Sunday Funday fix in the Lowcountry. To help you navigate the scene, we’ve highlighted a few here and shared a little bit about what makes each place a worthy brunch destination.
