In terms of pots and pans, I just use the basics. -Aerin Lauder American billionaire heiress, Aerin Lauder, is certainly humble in her approach to cooking, and, I, for one, appreciate her sensibility and how relatable she is to the average person. I would be lying, however, if I didn't admit to a sudden urge to splurge on fancy cookware following this year's Charleston Wine + Food festival. Are you similarly inspired in the kitchen or wanting to engage in a little culinary creative snobbery, yourself? Well, you're in luck.

At a glance, what you need to know: What: The Steeplechase of Charleston Where: The Plantation at Stono Ferry Racetrack, Hollywood, SC 29449 When: Gates open 9 am. First race 1 pm. How: Tailgate and Ticket packages can be purchased here By Robin Gibson If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. -- J. R. R. Tolkien One thing is certain, Williams Sonoma must have understood what Tolkien meant at their Chefs' Collective Pop-Up held recently on King Street in Charleston. The event which happened during the 2017 Charleston Wine and Food Festival did not disappoint anyone in attendance. What do you get when you add a DJ to a retail space and mix it with chefs, bartenders, and guests? A party and we're glad they did. Cheers! We love a good party especially in a retail store. When's the last time you partied somewhere unexpected? Tell us! We'd love to hear your adventures. By Robin Gibson The life of man is of no greater importance to the universe than that of an oyster. -- David Hume  Scottish philosopher David Hume was right when it comes to the oyster's popularity in the Lowcountry. Winter brings with it the time-honored tradition of communal gatherings centered around the shellfish known as The Oyster Roast. This ritual is as iconic to the region as the smell of pluff mud is to our noses. And for the 34th year, the Granddaddy of them all, the Lowcountry Oyster Festival sponsored by the Greater Charleston Restaurant Association took place January 27, 2017, at Boone Hall Plantation. From the tailgating atmosphere to the dedicated shell recycling, these pictures tell the story of an ardent love affair and obsession with the all-important oyster. Shell recycling is an important part of the oyster's life cycle. The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources manages a shell recycling program whereby shells are reintroduced to salt water to improve the natural habitat.
