    Dining Review - September/October 2023

    Really enjoyed all your reviews! Debating adding the Japanese restaurant to our list. I’m off to check out that menu. We have also “saved deserts” to bring back to NJ. They usually only make it to South Carolina before we dig into them.

    Parking with a dining reservation?

    Update we asked the guard and she said sure just park on the right. So we were able to eat lunch and then hop over to trader Sam’s- so very fun. And our car didn’t get towed.

    The Genie Usage, Tips and Strategy ONLY Thread

    Here now and these are my 2 cents. We bought it for MK - twice- loved it there very useful. (4 of us so $60) and bought it once for HS. I don’t know if it’s necessary there. We didn’t feel we used it as much- we were able to do everything we wanted in one day- planned second day got switched...

    Enjoying the reviews. We love Homecoming but really it’s because of the moonshine. I love the drinks here. I agree it’s heavy food- I usually get the salad. Which is also a bit heavy but not as bad as the chicken and waffles. We are not Ragland fans. It’s too hit or miss on the tables and the...
