Restaurant of the Week – Serpas True Food

- Unique Converted cotton mill is unique while still honoring its past
- Scott Serpas was at Two Urban Licks (if you liked it there, you’ll love it here)
- One more day for the fried oysters, but you can still try the eggplant hushpuppies, tuna tartar and the mushroom tostadas
- Dinner would be wonderful with either the curried scallops or the beef shortrib with celery root gratin
- End with a light ice cream sandwich, and your thanks to the chef!
