Fashion Week: Wednesday

Classic Italian At Mercato

Don’t get me wrong, I love southern Italian cuisine. When I was a kid, it was pretty difficult to convince me to eat much else besides spaghetti, tortellini or ravioli covered in marinara and parmesan. To this day, I still buy the industrial-size jars of pasta sauce from Sam’s Club and go through them faster than any single male probably should.

Between The Buried And Me

Metal Rockers Shred The Music Farm

The Music Farm bore witness to an awesome quadruple-header last Friday. What would be a better way to kick off your weekend than to catch metal gods Between the Buried and Me live in Charleston? The experimental electronic rock band Eyris was the first opener for the show.

Tasty Italian Cuisine At ‘Al Di La’

There are some restaurants that have the kind of sparkling word-of-mouth reputation that no marketing budget can buy. A favorite of local residents and critics alike, West Ashley’s Al di La is one of those restaurants. The tiny northern Italian-style trattoria tucked into an indistinct strip of shops just off the Savannah Highway, near Gene’s Haufbrau is consistently one of the most highly recommended restaurants in the city.
