As of October 28 Ruan Thai is now open at 17 West Broughton Street. Occupying the former Poppy’s (né Coop’s) this Thai restaurant is not a bad offering for the downtown pallet.

Lulu’s Chocolate Bar on MLK Boulevard. Last night? Champagne and fondu…….at 11pm. Great space, great menu, great prices. Eat up!

It is time for Savannah to sizzle. At least that is the thought of Charlotte Prime as it announced May 21 that it will open its first Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse in Savannah, Georgia. The chophouse will be located on the corner of Whitaker and Bay in the News Place At Ellis Square development. They expect […]
