The culinary tour started at the visitors center. We found our guide, Guilds, and began the tour walking the streets of Charleston learning about its early history as a colony and its development into a trading capital in the south, while learning about the different sections of historic downtown.
This particular tour would take us to the Farmers market where we would select foods from the market that would be prepared in a meal at the end of the tour. Half way through the tour we visitedt the farmers market where food is selected and purchased.
We continued the walking tour through the grounds of university of Charleston, walking ever deeper into historic Charleston. Our final destination on the tour is the Leaf cafe and bar. The chef here has prepared a tasty appetizer lunch from the food selected from the farmers market (note 1). The list below is what I remember about the lunch:
Blueberry Vodka Cocktail
Strawberry and Blue Cheese
Spring Roll with Boiled Peanut Humus
Skirt Steak
Ice Cream with Apples
NOTES:
1. I had taken pictures via blogger of the menu the chef had prepared and other pictures along the tour, but they didn't come through via blogger picture function.
