New Food Spots to Try: What’s On the Menu?

Posted by MPM Leave a Comment

Looking for a new place to eat in Mount Pleasant? No worries foodies, we’ve got you and your appetite covered.

Bodega

Bodega exudes a funky, groovy vibe that pays homage to New York City. Executive chef Alec Gropman has created old school staples with a modern touch. Situated off Coleman Boulevard next to Juanita Greenberg’s, you can order both breakfast and lunch favorites. Bodega offers indoor and outdoor seating, and you can walk right up to the bar and grab a seat if one’s available. If you’re in a rush and want to get your grub to-go, they have a separate corner store set up for ordering takeout. Their drive-thru is open from 7-10 a.m. Monday through Friday, featuring a select limited breakfast menu. For breakfast, try The Bodega Classic, any of the benedicts or their creative pancakes. Bodega serves seven different sandwiches for lunch such as The Diner Club, The Chick Flick or The Chopped Cheese. Like NYC, bodegas have fantastic food, but their coffee selection is amazing too. And this Bodega doesn’t disappoint when it comes to the coffee bar. From Sour Patch Kids shooters to a strawberry lemonade martini, the cocktails are refreshing as well. Stop in today and give them a try. Visit www.eatdrinkbodega.com for more information.

Get Carried Away – The Perch

If you have ever shopped at Get Carried Away, then you are probably familiar with The Perch. Located in the Moultrie Plaza, Get Carried Away is a great place to purchase ready-made foods and dishes. Additionally, the market offers unique items plus beer and wine. The Perch prepares sandwiches such as the Italian club, turkey bacon avocado and a smashburger. Enjoy the tasty quiches, salads and shareable snacks outside on their patio. This is a neat little joint to have a relaxing lunch by yourself or with a small group of friends. They are open for lunch Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. The patio bar is open from Thursday to Saturday serving up delicious drinks. The next time you’re looking for a new lunch spot or after work cocktails, swing by The Perch and treat yourself. Check them out online at getcarriedaway.com/the-perch/.

Taverna

Experienced the delectable fare of Philosophia Mezze Ouzeria? Then you may also want to try their sister property Taverna Philosophia at 976 Houston Northcutt Blvd. adjacent to the Holy City Tennis Shop. Taverna Philosophia is an Aegean Brasserie Mediterranean restaurant serving up authentic dishes inspired from the love of the culture, cuisine and beauty of the Greek Islands. The owners, who have been best friends since the first grade, have Greek roots, so you know this establishment is the real deal. A mixture of surf and turf entrees, you can opt to dine family style or “giortí,” meaning feast or individual dishes. Open for dinner only Tuesday through Thursday from 5-9 p.m. and Friday to Saturday from 5-9:30 p.m. They accept walk-ins and reservations. Visit them on the web at philosophiamtpleasant.com/taverna/home/.
