I don't like Chicago deep dish pizza, it ain't pizza, it's a
cassarole! Thin crust, brick oven, NY style!

Damn straight.

There's a place just down the road that serves NY pizza. The people
that own it moved here from NY, and they do a great job of re-creating
authentic NY style in SC.

Been there - it is very good pizza - top notch.

Got a a little Greek place in town that does great food as well. The
gyros, tahini, and hummus is good.

We have customers in from all over the US fo training, and they're
always amazed at the variety of good places to eat. They come
thinking it's all hog jowls and cornbread, and leave with the
realization that the stereotypes they've been fed of the south are
gone. At least in this area of the south, there's no problem finding
good ethnic foods. And they do like the local BBQ.

Well, it may sound rather passe', but when I'm down there, the first
place I go for lunch in San Jose's - pick one, but I really like the
one over on Rt 6 behind the Carolina Wings place in Lexington.

It's become a ritual. :)

I've also been to several BBQ places - Hudson's, Maurice's (although
I'm not a big fan of mustard based sauces, but the atmosphere
is...um...interesting) and a couple others. Some chain operations that
I had never been too that are pretty good.

Breakfast? The Waffle House on Rt 6 and I-20 across the street from
the BP Kangaroo. Best damn greasy spoon I've ever been in. :)
