Over-the-top milkshakes are a thing.

And the local go-to is Bella Rose in Hurricane.

It was previously operating under a different name, but recently reopened under Bella Rose and added food.

Unfortunately they had run out of most of the food, so I focused on dessert.

I went for a s'mores over-the-top milkshake that included charred marshmallows, Hershey's chocolate and graham cracker.

There are a number of over-the-top shakes to choose from.

Which one would you choose?

Charleston has a number of Mexican restaurants, and I've made it my goal to try all of them.

Most recent on my list was Los Amigos Mexican Restaurant.

This West Side Mexican restaurant has your standard fare.

We started with chips and salsa.

And maybe a frozen strawberry margarita.

Or two.

I ordered the Burrito Roqueta - Two flour tortillas wrapped with grilled chicken, onions and cheese sauce. Served with a side of rice and pico de gallo. 

Twelve Oaks is a cool lounge at The Greenbrier.

"The ornate décor is distinguished by an elegant equestrian theme that includes an impressive collection of jockey memorabilia and artwork. The menu offers a selection of handpicked fare from Draper's. Enjoy the stately décor, impressive view of the casino floor, superb service and signature drinks at Twelve Oaks in the Casino Club at The Greenbrier."

I tried a Greenbrier Peach Margarita - House-Made Ginger-Infused Tequila with a hint of Orange Liquor and Greenbrier Peach Purée. Delightfully refreshing!

And I tried “Casino Royal” Nachos - BBQ Pork, Crispy Wonton Skins, Roasted Corn Salsa Fresca, Shaved Scallions Sour Cream and Cheese Sauce


Have you been here?

The Forum is an Italian restaurant at The Greenbrier.

"Classic hand-tossed Neapolitan pizza made with the best imported semolina flour, burrata cheese and handpicked preserved tomatoes from The Greenbrier Chef’s Garden is a house specialty. The menu also features classically authentic dishes with influences from all of Italy for the American palate."

I went for the Fresh Mushroom Tortellini with house cheese blend and pancetta. 

So many yummy sounded menu items.

Have you been?

I recently tried In-Fusion at The Greenbrier for the first time.

The Asian-themed restaurant has small plates from various parts of China, Japan, Korea and Thailand.

I started with an order of Crab Rangoon - Crab and Cream Cheese, Sriracha Mayonnaise

The General Tso’s Chicken was my choice.

It's Orange Marinated Fried Chicken, Steamed Broccoli, Steamed Rice. Have you been?
