Park + Grove, at 730 Rutledge Ave., is rolling out some changes. The seasonal eatery has named Chef Andrew Wilson its new Executive Chef and will debut a new menu after Restaurant Week beginning Monday, Jan. 22.

Chef Wilson brings more than two decades of experience and spent some of his career honing his skills in Charleston restaurants like FIG.

Karalee Fallert, CEO + founder of All Good Industries, which manages Park + Grove, says, “His commitment to excellence, creativity, and a deep connection to the local food scene make him a perfect fit for our restaurant.”

The revamped menu under Chef Wilson will still emphasize local ingredients, and guests can see new winter dishes like miso-glazed South Carolina turnips with shoyu + mint, Cindy Tarvin’s grilled shrimp, sea island red peas, local pepper salad, lemon vinaigrette, and duck confit sandwich with apricot mostarda, goat cheese, arugula on schiacciata.

Take a tour of Morrison Yard apartments

Callie here. Looking for a place to live with million-dollar views without the million-dollar price tag? Enter: Morrison Yard. The dog-friendly community is located at 838 Morrison Dr., and features local businesses + artisans in the nearby retail spaces. I recently toured Morrison Yard for myself, and it was gorgeous.

What we tried:

When I walked into the grand lobby, I was greeted by a scene straight out of a magazine — complete with a custom scent (pro tip: you can ask for the Morrison Yard scent at Candlefish), and the kindest staff.

The facilities are top-of-the-line and it’s evident the team is working hard to make relationships and connect with the community.

After my tour, Morrison Yard hosted a Charleston Moves event, where the team unveiled plans to break ground on a bike + pedestrian path from the community to the Ravenel Bridge.
