RESTAURANT REVIEW
Because of its emphasis on top ingredients prepared in a way that allows their flavors to shine, reviewers have been known to refer to Mike Lata's restaurant as "the Blue Hill of the South." Lata's menu is loaded with the region's best products: Crispy Caw Caw Creek pork trotters served with endive and a Sunnyside [up] Farm egg, and Keegan-Fillion Farms chicken al mattone ("under a brick") with Anson Mills farro. Fig is beloved by many who live in the Charleston area, and one reviewer told us, "The only problem with our meal was that we did not make another reservation before we left."
