When cuisine goes guerilla

Had a blast at The American Theater last night for the latest and greatest version of what I think of as the “traveling Charleston dinner party” AKA Guerilla Cuisine.

Our own Nico Romo was the featured chef, and he and the entire Fish put together an innovative, delicious 6 course dinner that absolutely astounded everyone. Bold flavors, flawless execution and utter fun and creativity in choices.

We had the supreme pleasure of being guests this time around, and I can tell you that it was an honor to be there. Not just to eat wonderful food but to have great conversations, have the opportunity to peruse and purchase fantastic local art: metal work by Chad Haselden and t-shirts and posters by John Pundt. And, talk to the artists themselves.

These fantastic evenings are put together by Jimi Hatt (who you may have seen drop trou’ at The American Theater at a past Pecha Kucha Night.) It’s his passion and hard work that brings an ever changing group of people together to hunker down and thoroughly enjoy themselves over fantastic local food, art and music.

Thanks to everyone for such an incredible evening
