Greenville, South Carolina's culinary scene is flourishing. From rustic Italian bistros to stalwart barbecue joints and up-and-coming cafes, the robust roster of restaurants is filled with unforgettable flavors and experiences that keep locals and visitors alike coming back for more.
GREENVILLE — On a recent Wednesday afternoon, a steady stream of people step through Fork & Plough’s front door, where Shawn Kelly greets most by name with a nod and a personal word.
After five years of running the restaurant he started within the heart of the Overbrook neighborhood, Kelly has become as much a part of the experience of Fork & Plough as the food.
Roddy Pick is as passionate about local art as he is about the fresh ingredients at Fork and Plough.
Before it reaches the kitchen of chef Shawn Kelly, much of what makes it to the plate at Fork and Plough is quietly raised on a farm in Dacusville.
GREENVILLE — It’s a spread, it’s a base, it’s a sauce — it’s mayonnaise!
In partnership with Duke’s Mayo, tourism promoter VisitGreenvilleSC created “Eugenia Duke’s Unofficial Mayo Guide to Greenville.” It’s a mouthful of a title to celebrate mouthfuls of food made with the versatile egg yolk-based condiment — which originated in Greenville and has a loyal following.
The guide highlights dishes served by 20 local restaurants featuring Duke’s mayonnaise as an ingredient.
These 20 food stops and four historic spots celebrate Eugenia Duke, her famous Duke’s Mayo, and how it all came to be right here in Greenville, SC.
Greenville, South Carolina, may be known for its small town charm, its picturesque parks that wind through the downtown area and its friendly, low key vibe. But too many people aren’t aware that it’s also the home to a legendary food product: Duke’s Mayonnaise.
Chef Shawn Kelly is striving to shorten the distance between your fork and the plough in the fields where your food is grown.
That plough might turn the earth on a farm in Greenville County … or two counties away … or across the state line in North Carolina as beets and greens and fruit make their way into Kelly’s apple and pear salad.
There’s been a lot of noise about Greenville, South Carolina over the past few years. The New York Times (NYT) ranked the quaint city, set in the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains, as 14th on list of 52 places around the world to visit in 2023. Food & Wine calls it one of “America’s Next Great Food Cities” proclaiming that this once sleepy mill town “hums with culinary energy…menus are inventive and constantly evolving.” Sid Evans, the editor in chief of Southern Living (which named it the South’s Best City on the Rise in 2022), has proclaimed, “The food here is adventurous, and the chefs have embraced the global influences shaping the modern South.”
