I don’t usually chase holiday pop-ups, but @saltybrewscafe felt like the right exception.

They’ve always been one of my most reliable lunch spots in North Myrtle Beach (good food & fair prices).

The Trash Can Nachos still lead the lineup: crunchy, cheesy, piled high, and topped with tender pork glazed in a sweet-heat Korean BBQ sauce. Pair it with the Salty Golfer (@thesaltygolfer) a pineapple blonde ale that tastes like sunshine in a glass.

Then there’s the Cherry Grove Roll, flame-torched right before it hits your table. Layers of crab, smoked salmon, cucumber, and tuna under dynamite sauce.

Their new holiday cocktails feel nostalgic: the Salty Caramel Apple is cozy while the Sugar Cookie Martini is a dessert with a marshmallow rim.

A fun seasonal twist that’s sticking around through the end of the month. Less

Scroll for prices 👀 which can’t be found online… And to see what’s worth getting vs not (the final dish was the best).

Does anyone else consider a problem not finding their prices online? Transparency matters, especially when a signature dish (like their Bistecca Alla Florentina) costs $225 💰

If you are new to my page, I never count the service towards the score but I do talk about it. Our waitress was very nice but a bit distracted. We waited over 15 minutes between giving our drink order and our food order — not because the restaurant was slammed, but because no one approached the table. And once we finally ordered, the pacing made zero sense. The menu is written Italian-style with antipasti, primi, secondi… but besides the focaccia and the tuna, everything arrived at once. A full table of dishes getting cold while we tried to figure out what to taste first. It felt rushed and chaotic, the opposite of what a restaurant at this price and reputation should feel like.

Swipe for the full breakdown — highs, lows, scores, and what I’d *actually* recommend ordering.

Holiday revelry began in earnest @copineproject last Saturday night. Caviar; foie gras tart; Dungeness crab salad with apple sorbet; chestnut agnolotti; wild mushroom & Brussels sprout vol-au-vent; bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin; and blood orange mousse sheathed in chocolate with vanilla Grand Marnier ice cream. Alas, no photo of the sherry-kissed Martini Provencal made by @angleerick. As always, lovely food, seamless service, warm hospitality. Copine est magnifique!

Dinner @autumnseattle was a cozy, relaxed respite from the furious weather outside. The opener was rockfish crudo with blood orange and prosciutto. Next, a chicory Ceasar and a stunningly delicious sunchoke confit with ricotta, pepita salsa macha and duck fat aioli. Finally, spaghetti with smoked fish, lemon and tobiko. Cà Gialla Roero Arneis was a great wine match for it all. Tieler and Daniella provided sterling service. Autumn, in Phinney, is part of @generalharvestseattle, a group of polished neighborhood restaurants that includes Vendemmia and Raccolto. Looking forward to the reopening soon of Eldr, closed by a fire.

I don't think anyone will be surprised that @mamanirestaurant is involved. You might want to plan your meal to end with two desserts. The Paris-Brest is the one everyone posts on here, but the parfait is a modest-looking parade of sweet, savory, salty, creamy, crispy, fruity flavors. Less
