Husk
Charleston, South Carolina
It doesn't take a James Beard Award-winning chef to make Southern dishes taste good — but it doesn't hurt, either. Located inside a historic downtown building complex that dates to the late 19th century, the menu at Husk — expertly crafted by Chef Sean Brock — is driven by indigenous ingredients, and features intelligent takes on such classics as fried chicken and waffles, deviled eggs, and the venerable po' boy. If you're really curious, take a look at the chalkboard, which provides a breakdown of where the various ingredients were sourced.
