One of the joys of making a road trip and exploring without a plan is that you can sometimes stumble across a real gem of a place in the most unexpected places.

Sticky Fingers Smokehouse – A BBQ platter and a big ole jacket potato for lunch

Market Street Deli in Charleston- Two Loaded Breakfast Sandwiches Please!
Market Street Deli lies in the heart of the Market Place area just steps from the popular covered market and right in the midst of the throng of tourists. This place was small and simple, it seemed that it was more for the locals than the tourists and suited us just fine with it’s no…
East Bay Deli in Charleston – A couple of brisket sandwiches that hit the spot
We chanced upon East Bay Deli on, well East Bay Street in Charleston as we walked back downtown to the Historic Downtown from the Aquarium Wharf after a boat trip around the harbor bay.

Hyman’s Seafood, a 5th Generation Family Joint in the Historic District, Nice Rock Shrimp
Hyman’s Seafood on Meeting Place in the Historic District was on my target list of places to go when we were visiting Charleston. Forget the ‘District’ having been here for over 125 years, this place is Historic all by itself! The Hyman family have been trading out of this building since 1890, and I read that there is currently 5th generation…

Dame’s Chicken and Waffles – Wild yet wonderful combinations for the soul
“ Dame’s Chicken and Waffles over at North Harrison in Cary is a go to kind of place. I am no ‘expert in the world of Chicken ‘n’ Waffles, but have been told that Dame’s is the place to go to in the Triangle. This particular joint has only been open for a few months,…
Back to Danny’s Bar-B-Que with Friends – Great Food, Great company
Danny’s Bar-B-Que in Morrisvillle was one of the first places that I visited on this MyFoodHunt Tour of North Carolina. On that first visit I had a simple BBQ pork sandwich with a side of Brunswick stew (read about that here). Today I was back in with my great friends Dan and Meredith who are…
The Brunch Box ‘Offering tasty deli-style breakfast and lunches.’ sounds good? It does eh? so you better check that out!
The Brunch Box over on Chapel Hill Road in Morrisville is a great family run deli that I have chanced upon during myfoodhunt lunchtime travels in the Triangle. I think this one of the best places I have found to get a real deli style sandwich! On each visit there has been a line all the way out…
