ICYMI, earlier this month, we discussed the origin of she-crab soup– a Lowcountry favorite that was conceptualized right here in CHS. And today, we’re ready to bisque it all for the best bowl in town. But in order to do that, we need help from you, our readers.

Based on your suggestions, we’ve narrowed down the competition to 26 following contenders. After you’ve had a moment to stew on the list, click on your winning pick to cast your vote.

The poll is now closed. Congratulations to the winner, Charleston Crab House!
