Rundown

James Island tract up in the air, concerns continue

By Lily Levin

News 11.03.2023

An undeveloped parcel of prime James Island property is caught between a government, a hard place, the public interest and private development.

The 6.5-acre public tract next to the Whitehouse Plantation neighborhood on Dills Bluff Road that the James Island Public Service District (JIPSD) owns is under contract to a developer. But the deal hasn’t been closed. In fact, the town recently voted down rezoning permits that would have allowed development to start.

Neighbors are questioning why public land would be sold for private uses instead of becoming a park. They cite the need for more green space and mitigation of flooding. Meanwhile, the tract has gotten new interest from conservationists.

“We were just informed about a possible issue on James Island on Monday and have been researching the issue, but we are not engaged in any legal matter or case at this point,” the South Carolina Environmental Law Project said in a Nov. 1 statement.

Changes in ownership of the contested parcel started more than 25 years ago. The town of James Island conveyed half of the 6.5-acre property to JIPSD for public use after a 1997 petition filed at the Charleston County Court of Common Pleas.

The other half was conveyed in 1997 to Honey Hill Neighborhood Associates with the addendum that if the association ceased to exist, the land would be designated JIPSD property. Honey Hill sold its portion of the 6.5 acres to the JIPSD for $10 in 2004.

What’s happening now Currently, the parcel is made up of trees and marsh, which Whitehouse Plantation resident Scott Edwards criticized JIPSD for not maintaining. “They’ve never done any upkeep,” he said.

The land was offered by open bid in

2021, said JIPSD district manager Dave Schaeffer. Kyle Taylor Properties (KTP) was the highest bidder at just under $2 million, outgoing James Island Mayor Bill Woolsey wrote Sept. 18 on Facebook. The founder of KTP, Kyle Taylor, is the son of Edwin S. Taylor, a name some may recognize as the namesake of a bridge on Folly Beach. Taylor did not respond to interview requests.

JIPSD still owns the land, Schaeffer told the City Paper. KTP reportedly needed approval for its first proposal for a planned development zoning permit, which JIPSD Commissioner Susan Milliken said would eliminate the town’s planning and zoning ordinance requirements.

In September, a motion to rezone the tract didn’t get a second reading, leading town council to take no vote. In October, the tract’s rezoning came up for a vote at the town council meeting, but the request was voted down unanimously.

In an Oct. 25 intergovernmental meeting, KTP proposed something called Concept Plan “B,” which would keep the zoning ordinance residential, working around the barriers to the original one. It would also include a 10-lot single-family residential community. A 1.27-acre commercial zone originally on the table for development was listed as “not included in the proposed planned development.” Plan “B” left one small green space bordering the neighborhood to be conserved as a park using the town’s Greenbelt funds.

But by Nov. 1, KTP submitted an official — and different — proposal to the town that would still keep existing zoning ordinances, Woolsey told the City Paper in a Nov. 1 interview. This updated plan, he said, included 15 single-family residential homes and proposed a storage facility on the 1.27-acre commercial property.

“Perhaps, based on what KTP proposed at

the intergovernmental meeting, part of the property would still be preserved as a park,” Woolsey added.

Some of the residents, however, say they are worried that the space might become the site of KTP’s second round of development.

Where’s the money going?

Revenue from the sale of the 6.5-acre tract would go toward improving the JIPSD facility on Signal Point Road, which proponents think is long overdue for even basic repairs, said Schaeffer. The complex was built in the 1970s and 1980s and was meant to last only 20 years, but it still hasn’t seen any sort of renovation, he added.

JIPSD funding comes from property taxes from people who live in the town of James Island or unincorporated Charleston County for its fire and solid waste services, said Milliken.

Schaeffer told the City Paper that this money alone can’t fund improvements to the facility, which supports 94 employees.

Residents express worries about flooding Meanwhile, Whitehouse Plantation resident John Peters’ yard is separated from the JIPSD land by small pink lines painted on the grass. Because of this proximity, Peters is worried if KTP were to develop the land, his property might become collateral damage.

Schaeffer said for the county to issue a stormwater permit, another requirement for a development, the property can’t be shown to worsen any flooding. The Marsh Walk Village, however, Peters said, would CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

The S.C. Department of Education is facing a lawsuit filed Oct. 26 with the state Supreme Court by parents and education advocates challenging the state’s new Education Scholarship Trust Fund voucher program.

In the lawsuit, plaintiffs claimed that the fund, which could divert millions of dollars of state funds from public schools to private schools, violated the state constitution because it bars use of “public funds for the direct benefit of private educational institutions.” Those suing the department included the S.C. State Conference of the NAACP, the S.C. Education Association and six public school parents represented by lawyers from South Carolina firms and national education nonprofits.

According to the Associated Press, the program would allow up to 15,000 students to access $6,000 annually in publicly funded savings accounts for private K-12 tuition. That’s the equivalent of $90 million, or about 0.7% of the annual state budget.

The Education Department did not respond to the Charleston City Paper’s request for comment. But according to published reports, Gov. Henry McMaster told reporters last week that he was confident the law would withstand judicial scrutiny because the money would go to parents, not schools. —Lily Levin

New bike/walk bridge over Ashley River racing forward

for any tax increases.

City, county, state and federal officials and advocacy leaders on Oct. 30 celebrated the groundbreaking on the Ashley River Crossing project, a coming pedestrian and bike bridge that connects the West Ashley Greenway to Lockwood Boulevard downtown.

The $73 million bridge will also serve as one of the final pieces of the East Coast Greenway, a network of multi-modal greenspace spanning Maine to Florida.

Funding for the project is coming from several sources, including several grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation and contributions from the S.C. Department of Transportation, Charleston County and the BerkeleyCharleston-Dorchester Council of Governments. The city of Charleston is on the hook for about $9 million of the project, said Mayor John Tecklenburg.

“I know it seems expensive,” he said. “But I can tell you, 20 years from now, when our citizens are out there enjoying it every day and going back and forth to work, we’re going to be glad we built this bridge.”

The city’s contributions will come from hospitality funds, Tecklenburg said, meaning residents don’t have to watch out

A major milestone

The Ashley River Crossing not only marks the final piece of the connectivity puzzle of the East Coast Greenway, but also will be the first bobtail swing pedestrian bridge constructed in North America.

The unique design of a bobtail bridge means instead of opening vertically to allow ships to pass below, the middle section rotates horizontally to create an opening, just like a vehicle bridge to Sullivan’s Island opens now for boats on the Intracoastal Waterway.

“It was important to make sure that this is not only just a project to connect communities together but also to become a destination,” said state Department of Transportation Secretary Christy Hall. “This bridge will be one of a kind in the U.S. and in North America, and it has to be done right.”

Keith Benjamin, associate administrator for highway policy and external affairs with the Federal Highway Administration, said the project is a key improvement for the tricounty area.

“I just feel like everyone deserves the dignity of access,” Benjamin told

The Ashley River Crossing bridge is set to be the first bobtail swing pedestrian bridge in North America Charleston City Paper. “The opportunity we have in building this bridge ensures that people have the freedom of choice, and I think that matters no matter what mode of transportation.”

Benjamin added he felt it will be important not to sit back and rest after the project’s completion and keep the momentum going to ensure equitable mobility and access across all of Charleston.

A long time coming

For years, local advocacy groups have been demanding progress on pedestrian and bicycle access connecting West Ashley to downtown Charleston. The Holy City consistently rates as one of the most dangerous places for pedestrians and cyclists due to numerous traffic fatalities.

By Herb Frazier The Lanxess chemical plant in Charleston’s Neck Area has significantly reduced emissions over the last four years of ethylene oxide (EtO), a toxic chemical used to make agricultural products that boosts crop yields, a state health official said.

EtO emissions in the North Charleston area have dropped by 80% since 2019, mostly due to Lanxess’ additional pollution controls to contain the chemical, said Ron Aiken, media relations director for the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC).

“We expect even further reductions in EtO emissions in the North Charleston area because of these added controls by Lanxess,” Aiken said.

Lanxess met previous federal EtO limits in 2022 and recently installed more controls to meet a new 2023 limit, Aiken said. Some EtO emissions are still expected, he added.

Chronic exposure to EtO can cause cancer, according to the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

DHEC recently shared an EtO emissions report with residents of Rosemont and other North Charleston communities near the plant that has reported two leaks of liquid phosphorus this year and seven other chemical leaks since 2018.

The German-owned plant manufactures phosphorus trichloride and numerous derivative products, such as flame-retardant additives and intermediate products for the agrochemicals industry. EtO is used as part of the manufacturing process.

Nancy Button, president of the Rosemont Neighborhood Association, said the air quality information does not satisfy residents’ overall concerns about other chemicals that Lanxess has at the site.

Button said she’ll request another meeting with DHEC and the company to talk about all of the toxic chemicals used at the plant.

“We need DHEC to come and tell us exactly what are the exposure risks of those chemicals,” she said. Lanxess managers did not attend the Oct. 16 meeting.

Because of the two spills this year, Rosemont residents have become increasingly concerned about the plant where a June 17, 1991, explosion killed nine workers and injured dozens. At that time, Albright & Wilson owned the plant.

A West Ashley woman on Oct. 24 reported to Charleston police that another woman in her apartment complex threatened her life recently.

The suspect reportedly told her, “Watch out, it’s Friday the 13th. You’re going to die.” Despite surviving the day, the woman told police she was adamant about filing a report.

Phantom fryer North Charleston police on Oct. 30 investigated an incident at a Rivers Avenue fast food restaurant after finding a “fist-sized” hole in the glass drive-thru window. Inside, officers reported the fryers were left on and a bag of frozen food was left out. There was no other evidence of entry or exit, meaning either this guy was a professional or a very hungry ghost.

That can be arranged Charleston police on Oct. 23 arrested a “partially clothed” man for suspected public intoxication on King Street, but before they could read him his rights, a woman reportedly yelled to police, “If he’s being arrested, then you have to take me first.” After finding she had an empty bottle of vodka, police granted her request.

create “impervious surfaces that are going to cause flooding” because the water can’t be absorbed into the soil.

Peters is also concerned flooding might cause another issue: a sewage leak in his yard. There are three sewer covers on Peters’ property — and they’re old, cracked and susceptible to overflow if enough water gets into them, he said. Then, Peters would be “surrounded by an unhealthy condition immediately threatening my home and my well-being and my family.”

Green space, affordable housing issues Grand trees, which exclude pine trees and sweetgums and are defined by a diameter of 24 inches or greater at the standard height for measurements, are protected by regulation in Charleston. There are 39 grand trees on the 6.5-acre property to take into consideration, said Peters. But only 20 would be kept in the initial Marsh Walk Village proposal, he added.

Plus, “when they [JIPSD] dig to put the storm water line” in the ground, Peters said, they might cut off the roots to a preserved grand tree, and it’ll end up dying anyway.

Some residents of Whitehouse Plantation

are also concerned about protecting the town’s green space in an area already highly developed. Lack of green space is shown to vary across racial and economic lines with documented implications to human health.

And clearing green space to make way for development could reduce affordable housing in the area, said Edwards, looking at the updated 10-lot proposal.

What’s next One alternative to the development is simply conservation.

“A good idea for the property is to expend the Town’s $750K in county Greenbelt funds, with matching funds from a conservation group, and preserve this wooded acreage which has over 30 grand trees in perpetuity for a town park,” said Milliken.

What’s clear, Peters said, is that the land belongs to the people. He recently went door-to-door to collect signatures in opposition to the development. Nine out of 10 people he talked to signed their names.

Peters advocated for other uses of the land, like including a space for food trucks, a farmer’s market or a fitness trail — so long as a substantial part remains wooded or conserved for a park.

“We need to work together to do that and to make the best decisions we have with what little green space we have left.”

Meeting with a limited agenda

The meeting was not intended to review Lanxess’ overall operations, Aiken said.

“We worked hard to make sure the community understood that before the meeting and during it,” he said. “If the community would like to hold a meeting to talk about Lanxess’ operations and previous releases or spills, we are happy to take part in that, but that is not what this meeting was about.”

In August, Rosemont residents were concerned that an alert system, which is regularly tested, was not activated to notify residents of new accidental chemical releases.

Since then, Lanxess has installed a warning system using cell phones, landlines, text messages and email to notify area residents of an emergency, company spokesman Michael Mackin said.

“Lanxess has remained focused on reducing emissions since acquiring the facility,” Mackin said, citing the use of “modern pollution control technologies to reduce emissions in accordance with the requirements” of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and DHEC.

Don’t fall for election shenanigans O

Views 11.03.2023

ld-timey political “whisper campaigns” quietly impaled an opponent with general nastiness, rumors and fearmongering to change outcomes of elections. The overall strategy was to find a pressure point about something that scared someone, such as spreading vitriol that someone who doesn’t look like you might take away your job or livelihood.

The modern-day equivalent of this kind of sliminess is found in the dozens of unwanted, undesired political texts that are blowing up phones. That’s because unscrupulous consultants have figured out that just about everybody opens texts, compared to spam emails or old-fashioned letters. So they figure if people are using texts, they might as well take advantage of human behavior to spread home-grown muck to instill as much fear and confusion as they can.

You can see these tactics in local races in surreptitious messages from people who purportedly support the right-wing extremists in the local Moms For Liberty group. Rather than publicly backing candidates, they use texts that say “we are only allowed to endorse school board candidates. But I can tell you who the conservative candidates are.” And then they proceed to share names of candidates, all under the veil of texts.

Or there are the anonymous text campaigns in North Charleston that seek to vilify one candidate’s record without a hint of sources or facts.

But naughty, hate-filled texts are just the tip of the iceberg.

Local elections also are spiraling down with gaslighting and weaponizing of information. Mayoral challenger William Cogswell in Charleston, for instance, runs Facebook ads that make it sound like another newspaper endorsed him, when in fact, it endorsed incumbent John Tecklenburg like we did.

Or there’s the Facebook ad that implies broad neighborhood

support, but lacks a single Black or Brown face in several snapshots that zip by in split seconds.

Charleston candidates also have used a one-night downtown rampage on King Street as evidence of terrible mayoral leadership. In truth, Tecklenburg rightly left management of the streets to the professionals — police, who unfortunately got their act together one day too late. But no one died here like in other cities that were blowing up after the George Floyd murder in Minnesota.

Imagine if Tecklenburg had micromanaged. Critics would be screaming about the mayor wanting to be a law enforcement officer. Candidate Mika Gadsden rightly observed, “I really do not want to hear that night be politicized or weaponized against another candidate. It’s gone on too long, and we’re not talking about the root causes of the issue.”

So in the coming Nov. 7 elections, we hope you will consider our endorsed candidates who, as best as we can tell, don’t stoop to race- and fear-based nods and winks to attract voters. We encourage you to vote in contested races for: • Charleston mayor: John Tecklenburg • Charleston city council: Stephanie Hodges (District 3); Karl L. Brady Jr. (5); Owen Vogel (7) and Kenneth Marolda (9).

• North Charleston mayor: Reggie Burgess • North Charleston city council: Kenneth Ray (District 2); Monica J. Mumme (3); Richard Hayes (4); Belinda Thomas Swindler (5); Nerfertiti Brown (6); Dan Gregory (7); Greg Perry (8); and Aaron Hicks (10).

Regardless of which candidates you support, do your duty and get to the polls and vote.

CHECKLIST of community objectives

We encourage community leaders to act on these audacious priorities: 1. Deal with the water. Build a strong resiliency plan to harden infra structure and make smart climate change decisions about develop ment, roads and quality of life.

2. Fix roads, traffic. Repair and improve roads and reduce traffic.

Speed up alternatives, including more public transportation.

3. Be smarter about education.

Inject new energy into the broken Charleston County school board by focusing on kids, not national mantras.

4. Conduct public business in public.

Be transparent in public business.

Stop the secrecy.

5. Invest in quality of life. Build more parks. Have more festivals. Invest in infrastructure that promotes a broad sense of community.

6. Engage in real racial conciliation.

If we embark on more conversations and actions on racial reconciliation, our community will strengthen and grow.

7. Develop fewer hotels, more affordable housing. Make Charleston a more affordable place to live for everyone.

8. Develop Union Pier at scale.

Let’s not put ship-sized buildings on the coveted Union Pier property downtown. Instead, make what comes appropriate.

9. Build and follow a 50-year plan.

Plan for the county’s long-term future and follow the plan.

10. Pay people more. Pay a living wage.

Push South Carolina lawmakers to set a real minimum wage.

OPINION

Imagine being at work today — literally minding your own business (a bar) — when you learn that in three days, your liability insurance is going to go up six times — from $17,000 a year to more than $100,000 annually.

Wouldn’t you fall out of your seat, hitting your jaw on the floor so that you’d need to crack a beer just to calm down?

That’s about the situation Charleston businessman Chris DiMattia faced last month with one of his new businesses, The Lucky Luchador. It’s a nothing-fancy neighborhood bar that most people walk to. In the last year, it’s had no claims, no lawsuits, no problems. Same for another nearby bar owner, who saw premiums rise from about $7,700 in 2017 to more than $48,000 this year.

Same for bar and restaurant owners from Myrtle Beach to Hilton Head Island to Greenville to Rock Hill.

DiMattia says the problem for fellow venue owners could “If the bars can’t have serious negative ramifications for businesses that get insurance, depend on tourism, the state’s largest industry.

“If the bars can’t get insurance, they lose their liquor they lose their licenses,” he explained. And if you don’t have any night life, you lose out on all of that tourism. You won’t see the weddings liquor licenses, coming here to Charleston or the corporate events or general and if you don’t tourists coming in for dining, food and beverage. These are the people who stay in all of the hotels.” have any night In the last six years, state lawmakers changed a liquor life, you lose out liability law to require venue owners — bars, restaurants and clubs that serve alcohol after 5 p.m. — to have at least $1 milon all of that lion in liability insurance. And during the period came some lawsuits in which several bars were sued at once in injury cases tourism.”

—Chris DiMattia to spread liability — and the potential for increased financial recovery for those injured. In turn, insurance companies turned skittish and started leaving the state. The number offering liquor liability insurance reportedly has dropped from two dozen to just three causing, in part, a huge rise in rates.

DiMattia and others around the state have been squawking to state lawmakers, who essentially caused the problem by rewriting the liability law just a few years ago.

State Rep. Stewart Jones, R-Laurens, filed a last-minute bill, the S.C. Save our Venues Act, in June to address some of the grievances and try to get things straightened out. But once a law changes, there’s never a quick fix. The bill by Jones was way too late for anything to happen this year.

While Alexander couldn’t be reached for comment, Jones said his bill would address three main issues that should make life easier for hospitality businesses. It would review the mandatory $1 million insurance minimum, look at curbing frivolous lawsuits and Andy Brack try to reduce rates based on proximity to emergency services. is editor and “There’s probably going to be a new bill filed when we get back in publisher of session in January,” Jones said that would overhaul current rules.

Charleston “I think the way these rates have gone up, especially recently, City Paper. that it’s reached an emergency critical point,” he said. “I wish there Have a was a way to get something going sooner. … Unfortunately there’s comment? not a silver bullet.”

Send to: And while the legislature may make reforming liquor insurfeedback@ ance requirements a top-level priority in January, changing the charleston law won’t cause an immediate drop in rates for bar owners. Why? citypaper.com.

Because with only a handful of insurance companies left that provide coverage, it will take awhile to draw in those that left to help make rates more affordable via old-fashioned competition.

Let’s hope the General Assembly makes liquor insurance reform a priority that helps venue owners, but also protects the public from anyone who has been irresponsibly overserved.

steakhouse downtown. “It’s all about the experience. The chefs bring the experience directly to the table and ask you, ‘How do you like it?’ To cut the desired temperature right there and experience the variety — it’s unlike anything anywhere else.”

“

The meat lacks the smoky flavor popular in U.S. barbecue, as gaucho-chefs seek to preserve the natural flavor of the farmraised beef. Smoking the meat can alter the taste, but the rotisserie slowly cooks the meat until the outer layer is nicely seared and the inside is tender and juicy.

Traditionally, gauchos were cowboys or ranchers, and a sort of folk symbol in regions of South America, including Argentina and Brazil. The gaucho-chefs of Brazilian steakhouses today have adopted the name to represent that history and culture.

Rodizio-style restaurants bring authentic Brazilian culture to Charleston

S

Skyler Baldwin

itting down at a rodizio-style restaurant can be daunting, but that ultimately gives way to childlike wonder and excitement once you see the big cuts of meat impaled on skewers that are paraded out of the kitchen and straight to the table.

From filet mignon and New York strip to parmesan-crusted pork loin and lamb chops, the diversity in options is staggering. Going in with the intention of tasting everything

will leave you crawling out the front door later. But don’t let it stop you from trying.

Guests are given a two-sided card — one side green, the other red. Flipping the

card to the green face tells the chefs — or gauchos — that you’re ready to go. Any time a cut of meat is ready to serve, it’s taken directly off a 600- to 900-degree rotisserie grill in the kitchen and directly to the dining room. Gauchos cut off pieces of the meat from table to table until it’s gone.

“Some places you go and you order steak, but this is different,” said Edson Ludwig, area manager of Galpao Gaucho, a Brazilian

While the concept is somewhat familiar in the Lowcountry — with local steakhouses Galpao Gaucho opening in 2020 and Cowboy Brazilian Steakhouse opening in North Charleston in 2016 — the style of dining has deep roots in Brazil.

“This is very traditional in Brazil, especially if you go to the South,” said Cowboy Brazilian co-owner Ana Maria Dias. “But really, it’s everywhere. Almost any restaurant you go to is just like this.”

Dias is from northern Brazil, where she previously worked in the hospitality industry operating a hotel service. She moved to the U.S. with her husband and started working in the kitchen at Cowboy Brazilian before buying it from the previous owners during the pandemic, she said.

Ludwig is from southern Brazil and was raised as a gaucho taking care of cattle on the family farm. He moved to San Paulo and spent many years in the restaurant business before moving to the U.S. in 2002 and starting to work in Brazilian steakhouses, which reminded him of home, he said.

“The culture of the steakhouses here is the same we have in Brazil,” he said. “The experience itself is the same as you’d get in Brazil, too. We’ve preserved the authenticity with the service style.”

A 2016 article from Eater says it’s almost impossible to determine who really

garlic and pepper. The chicken is heavily seasoned with a blend of different spices, and the pork has a white wine marinade with a different spice blend.”

But what really enhances the flavor of the meat is the sauces. As is traditional, both restaurants make their chimichurri and other sauces from scratch — a perfect pairing for the steak, especially the picanha.

Not just the meats

While Brazilian steakhouses may not be the best spot for vegetarians, the salad bars and hot bars offer options meant to pad guests between rounds of meat.

Mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy, Brazilian-style black beans, fresh salad greens, potato salad, smoked salmon and more are featured on an all-you-can-eat, selfserve salad bar. And it’s here that you’ll find

some more familiar selections, too, Dias said.

“The salad bar is adapted a little to American tastes,” she said. “But you’ll find some traditional options there, too.”

Some non-meat options are also served rodizio style, including the famed pineapple. Grilled on the rotisserie to glistening perfection, then rolled in cinnamon for a sweet, spicy bite, the pineapple is a Brazilian staple that serves as both dessert and a way to get you back in the game.

“Even when you’re full, you always have room for the pineapple,” Dias said, laughing. “So many people come back just for that.”

Bread and cheese options are also abundant, with fresh baked rolls and puffed breads that pair perfectly with the chimichurri or butter. Galpao Gaucho’s cheese bread is baked with yucca flour, making it gluten free to boot.

While the main attraction of a Brazilian steakhouse is the rotisserie-grilled meat, several hot and cold options are available buffet-style

What you came for

The service style isn’t the only thing that has made its way from Brazil.

“The meat is totally accurate in the way it’s done, especially the sauce and chimichurri,” Dias said. “The one we call the ‘house special’ is the one I like the most. In Brazil, we call it picanha.”

Picanha is a Brazilian steakhouse staple.

The most traditional cut, taken from the top of a cow’s rump and seasoned heavily with salt, is skewered into a C shape before going on the rotisserie grill. It’s similar to a sirloin in flavor and texture, but a juicy fat cap infuses the steak with flavor and tenderness that you can’t find anywhere else.

“That fat cap on the outside is what makes the picanha special,” Ludwig said.

“As the meat turns on the skewer, the fat melts and runs over the meat. That’s where the flavor is.”

Galpao Gaucho also offers a “spicy” picanha that packs a bit of a kick, but not too much so that anyone can still enjoy it.

“The seasonings are also very traditional Brazilian, and most cuts just have sea salt,” Ludwig said. “We keep the natural flavors of the meat, but with 17 different options, they all have different seasonings — the lamb, the chicken, the pork and the seafood.

“The lamb is marinated in white wine and fresh mint blended with spices like

invented the rodizio, which means rotation, style of dining, as several Brazilian restaurants claim the “first” title. But the concept was popularized in the mid-1900s, the article says, coinciding with Brazil’s big road-construction boom. Restaurants opened around the country to feed truck drivers, and grilled meat was the easiest and cheapest food to serve, as the region boasted huge numbers of cattle herds.

Ludwig said he has worked to ensure that Galpao Gaucho is as true to that history as possible.

“It’s so important to focus on preserving these southern Brazilian traditions with the gaucho-chefs. It’s a very important part of our culture,” he said. “The leave-in style — the cowboy that grows up on the farm, taking care of the cattle, that’s our roots.”

Wes Denney, owner of Brown Dog Deli, and his daughter, Hailey, started creating videos on TikTok with other employees as a fun staff activity, but the videos quickly gained popularity and brought in new business

Brown Dog Deli owner becomes reluctant TikTok star

By Helen Mitternight Wes Denney, owner of Brown Dog Deli, is a TikTok star, but he has a confession to make: He’s not really all that into TikTok. Fortunately for him, his daughter Hailey is, and when she coaxed him into goofing around on camera, he figured it would be a good daddy-daughter bonding time. Little did he know that one of the videos would leap to 5 million views and his business would expand as a result.

“The idea was something for us to do and something for the staff to do,” Denney said.

“After hours, we would get together, we’d get a small group and do TikToks. I had heard of it, but I couldn’t spell it. I didn’t have the app, and I refused to watch them. My daughter was in charge, and it was very small scale. I think it was like, ‘Let’s get revenge on dad and make him look stupid on TikTok!’” The idea, which started about two years ago, grew with the audience, and Hailey engaged the dancing talents of one of the

employees, who happened to be head of the Charleston Cougarettes at the College of Charleston, Madi Lynch.

The first videos were only modestly popular. “One day, we made a video where my daughter and the others would run from the house and run into Brown Dog and run to the counter and pretend to order, then run to the seat and drink a little chai latte. My daughter and I went out to eat that night, and it was like, ‘Release the Kracken!’ Lo and behold, we’re moving from 600 likes or hits or whatever you call them, to 6,000, and then to 38,000. My daughter is freaking out because this is her dream, and I’m excited because she’s excited. It was neat watching it,” he said.

Lights, camera, closet full of props

At that point, he said, he thought maybe it was time to put a little more effort into the videos, and they became more choreographed. The dancers would lip-sync to corny

Even more important, he has a waiting list of about 20 to 30 people who want to work at the deli, a rarity in these short-staffed times.

Eric Casella and Nora Granger are now selling cheese out of their Rivers Avenue location every Thursday and Saturday

Counter Cheesemongers open storefront on Rivers Avenue

By Connelly Hardaway Last month, Counter Cheesemongers, owned by Eric Casella and Nora Granger, opened a small storefront at 3973 Rivers Ave., Suite 105. The cheesemongers had been operating their wholesale business out of the space since 2018, so the addition of a cheese counter and retail store made sense.

The store, which sells cheese, sandwiches and locally sourced items including beer and wine, is open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. You can still find Counter Cheesemongers at local farmers markets, including the popular Sea Island farmers market on Johns Island.

“We work with a bunch of different small cheese makers from around the country, with a focus on the Southeast,” Granger said. “We don’t have anything from Vermont or California or the big names that you see everywhere. It’s just much smaller producers that you’re not gonna really find other places.”

Casella added that they work hard to represent all cheese types, including sheep’s milk, which is produced in very limited quantities around the country. “It’s constant open communication with [producers] which is really cool … because we get to see how they grow and what they are dipping their toes into,” he said. Needless to say there may be some bottled sheep’s milk available for purchase at Counter Cheesemonger’s soon.

Cheese on the brain

Both Casella and Granger come from a cheese and retail background, working for several years at Murray’s Cheese in New York City, which Granger described as a sort of “cheese graduate school.”

Bon Appetit declared Murray’s “the best cheese selection in New

Counter Cheesemongers focus on small batch cheeses York City, and really, the whole dang country. Murray’s is a dairy mecca, no question.”

“I don’t think there’s a faster-paced retail cheese counter environment like that in the United States,” said Casella, who focused on the affinage, or aging aspect of cheese, while Granger focused on management, retail and wholesale. The pair managed other cheese shops in New York before deciding to make the move south.

“It’s such a good food scene,” Granger said of Charleston. Counter Cheesemongers supply the cheese for local spots like Stems & Skins, Herd Provisions, Husk, Obstinate Daughter and more. You can order cheese from the shop online at countercheesemongers.com, or stop by the store on Fridays and Saturdays to get a rundown of offerings from the cheesemongers themselves.

“We’re usually here all day anyway,” Granger said of Counter Cheesemongers’ headquarters. “So we’re like, why not sell some cheese while we’re at it?”

reached 5 million views, “I would say that literally, the next day, we had our first lines out the door, and we haven’t skipped a beat since. We’ve gotten busier over time. I’ve had to extend my kitchen, double my staff and change my menu to take off some of the more time-consuming things because it became too hard to get ready.”

That kind of growth is rare, and TikTok took notice of that lightning-in-a-bottle moment to create a small business page that featured Brown Dog Deli.

“I had to do a terrible rap song for the web page — I mean, it was supposed to be terrible — and, at some point, they awarded me with five billboards, three in Charleston. It took six hours to get one good picture of me for that!”

Hailey is a junior at the University of Georgia, and Denney hopes to hand the business over to her some day. For that reason, he won’t do anything too over-the-top, even if it would garner more TikTok viewers.

“I didn’t want too much profanity or racy stuff,” he said. “I wanted the videos to be safe, fun and family-oriented because my face and my business are attached to them.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your victories-inprogress are subtle. They may not be totally visible to you yet. Let me describe them so you can feel properly confident about what you are in the process of accomplishing. 1. A sustained surge of hard-earned personal growth is rendering one of your problems mostly irrelevant. 2. You have been redefining what rewards are meaningful to you, and that’s motivating you to infuse your ambitions with more soulfulness. 3. You are losing interest in a manipulative game that doesn’t serve you as well as it should. 4. You are cultivating more appreciation for fascinating and useful problems.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus physicist Richard Feynman was a smart and accomplished person who won a Nobel Prize. He articulated a perspective that will be healthy for you to experiment with in the coming weeks. He said, “I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it’s much more interesting not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I’m not absolutely sure of anything, and there are many things I don’t know anything about.” Give Feynman’s approach a try, dear Taurus. Now is an excellent time to explore the perks of questioning everything. I bet you’ll be pleased with how free and easy it makes you feel.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): To earn money, I have worked as a janitor, dishwasher, olive picker, ditch-digger, newspaper deliverer, and 23 other jobs involving hard labor. In addition, I have done eight artistic jobs better suited to my sensitive temperament and creative talents. Am I regretful or resentful about the thousands of hours I toiled at tasks I didn’t enjoy? A little. But mostly I’m thankful for them. They taught me how to interact harmoniously with a wide array of people. They helped forge my robust social conscience. And they motivated me to eventually figure out how to get jobs I really loved. Now I invite you to take an inventory of your own work life, Gemini. It’s an excellent time to evaluate where you’ve been and where you want to go in the future.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): There are so many kinds of sweetness. Zesty spicy sweetness.

Tender balmy fragrant sweetness. Sour or bitter sweetness. Musky piquant sweetness. Luscious succulent sweetness. One of my favorite types of sweetness is described by Cancerian poet Stephen Dunn. He wrote, “Often a sweetness comes as if on loan, stays just long enough to make sense of what it means to be alive, then returns to its dark source. As for me, I don’t care where it’s been, or what bitter road it’s traveled to come so far, to taste so good.” My analysis of the astrological omens suggests to me that you are about to commune with at least three of these sweetnesses, Cancerian. Maybe most of them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Author Dan Savage advocates regular indulgence in sloth. He notes that few of us can “get through 24 hours without a little downtime. Human beings need to stare off into space, look out the window, daydream and spend time every day being indolent and useless.” I concur, and I hope you will indulge in more downtime than usual during the coming weeks. For the sake of your long-term mental and physical health, you need to relax extra deep and strong now — to recharge your battery with delicious and delightful abandon.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): According to my deep and thorough analysis of your astrological rhythms, your mouth will soon be a wonder of nature. The words emerging from your lips will be extra colorful, precise and persuasive. Your taste buds will have an enhanced vividness as they commune with the joys of food and drink. And I suspect your tongue and lips will exult in an upgrade of aptitude and pleasure while plying the arts of sex and intimate love. Congratulations, Mouthy Maestro!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In addition to being a masterful composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) played the piano, violin, harp, bas-

soon, clarinet, horn, flute, oboe and trumpet. His experience led him to believe that musicians best express their skills when they play fast. It’s more challenging to be excellent when playing slowly, he thought. But I will invite you to adopt the reverse attitude and approach in the coming weeks, Libra.

According to my astrological analysis, you will be most successful if you work gradually and incrementally, with careful diligence and measured craftiness.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In my horoscopes for Scorpios, I tend to write complex messages.

My ideas are especially thick and rich and lush.

Why? Because I imagine you as being complex, thick, rich and lush. Your destiny is labyrinthine and mysterious and intriguing, and I aspire to reflect its intricate, tricky beauty. But this time, in accordance with current astrological omens, I will offer you my simplest, most straightforward oracle ever. I borrowed it from author Mary Anne Hershey: “Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Play with abandon. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn.

Appreciate your friends. Do what you love.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In her poem “Requiem,” Anna Akhmatova says, “I must kill off memory … and I must learn to live anew.” I think most of us can benefit from periodically engaging in this brave and robust exercise. It’s not a feat to be taken lightly — not to be done more than once or twice a year. But guess what: The coming weeks will be a time when such a ritual might be wise for you. Are you ready to purge old business and prepare the way for a fresh start? Here are your words of power: forgiveness, clearing, cleaning, release, absolution, liberation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): We need stories almost as much as we need to breathe, eat, sleep, and move. It’s impossible to live without them. The best stories nourish our souls, stimulate our imagination, and make life exciting. That’s not to say that all stories are healthy for us. We sometimes cling to narratives that make us miserable and sap our energy. I think we have a sacred duty to de-emphasize and even jettison those stories — even as we honor and relish the rich stories that empower and inspire us. I bring these thoughts to your attention, Capricorn, because you’re in a phase of your cycle when you will especially thrive by disposing of the bad old stories and celebrating the good ones.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I could be wrong, but I don’t think so: You are smarter and wiser than you realize about the pressing issues that are now vying for your attention. You know more than you know you know. I suspect this will soon become apparent, as streams of fresh insights rise up from the depths of your psyche and guide your conscious awareness toward clarity. It’s OK to squeal with glee every time a healing intuition shows up. You have earned this welcome phase of lucid certainty.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In Indigenous cultures throughout history, shamans have claimed they have the power to converse with and even temporarily become hawks, coyotes, snakes and other creatures. Why do they do that? It’s a long story, but one answer is that they believe animals have intelligences that are different from what humans have. The shamans aspire to learn from those alternate ways of seeing and comprehending the world. Many of us who live in Western culture dismiss this venerable practice, although I’ve known animal lovers who sympathize with it. If you are game for a fun experiment, Pisces, I invite you to try your own version. Choose an animal to learn from. Study and commune with it. Ask it to reveal intuitions that surprise and enrich you.

James Island-based artist Cristina Victor showcases Charleston’s ceramic art community in her curatorial debut, SHAPERS. The group exhibition at the James Island Cultural Arts Center includes sculptural ceramic works by 19 Charleston-based artists and is on view now through Jan. 11, 2024.

The maximalist, salon-style exhibition serves as an opportunity to recognize an “incredibly dynamic and skilled community that is overdue and deserving of visibility,” Victor said.

Born and raised in Miami, Victor received her master’s degree in fine art in San Francisco and is now an interdisciplinary artist and studio art professor at the College of Charleston. She moved here in March 2020 and said “ceramics is what got me through” the pandemic and being alone in a new place.

“It was like this thing I could completely pour myself into and endlessly learn,” she said. “It was endless. It was boundless.”

(These are themes explored in Victor’s own colorful sculpture included in the show, titled “Quimbara.”)

To get involved in the local artistic community of her new home, Victor started working at Studio Union, an artist-run studio space in North Charleston. That’s where she connected with artists like Susan Klein, a fellow interdisciplinary artist who also teaches at College of Charleston, and Susan Gregory, who directs Studio Union and is an artist working in ceramics and encaustic.

Victor said the exhibition also relied on her meeting Myra Bowie, who owns Riverland Terrace pottery studio Terrace Clay and introduced Victor to many of the represented artists. Like Studio Union, Terrace Clay is an artist-run studio space founded after the longtime Charleston pottery hub cone10 closed in 2019 — after nearly 20 years serving the artistic community — when its space was bought and demolished due to development on the downtown peninsula.

After working in Charleston, Victor decided

Charleston artist and exhibition curator Cristina Victor described her piece “Quimbara” (above) as “precarious” and “full of failure” to curate a group show.

“I knew I had to kind of pay my dues and hang out and see what was going on. But in general, I immediately felt like, there’s a lack of representation of a lot of kinds of artists here.”

Through conversations with fellow artists, Victor began to sense many Charleston artists felt similarly and though art spaces in Charleston represent a very specific kind of work. For artists who are creating experi-

mental, subversive art, the options to show are limited.

“I became aware of this sense that there isn’t a whole lot of representation outside of the kind of art that I feel really appeals to tourism,” she said. “We don’t see enough art about the complexities of the history of this place.”

Nash brings 60 years of songs, stories to Music Hall

By Kevin Murphy Wilson

Storytelling and collaboration

That fruitful collaboration for his own album led to Nash lending his vocal support to the majority of the cuts on Clarke’s 2023 comeback LP, I’ll Never Forget, as well.

Outside of adding more music to his already expansive catalog, Nash has also busied himself lately with preparing archival releases such as the 50th anniversary edition of CSNY’s classic album Déjà Vu. For that one, Nash unearthed a number of nuggets including a surprising demo of “Our House” showcasing Nash and his then-housemate Joni Mitchell.

Even now, Nash vividly remembers capturing that special moment on tape.

“We were on the road doing a concert in Philadelphia somewhere. It was during soundcheck, you know, when you’re making sure everything is plugged in right. I just

Two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Graham Nash performs Nov. 9 at the Charleston Music Hall started doing ‘Our House,’ and Joni was playing the top keys, I was playing the bottom keys, and then, of course, we f*** up and start laughing. Normally, you would never get to hear something like that because it’s such a private thing. But since I was working on the Déjà Vu 50th anniversary project, I wanted to draw people in by including that rendition,” Nash said.

“In a hundred years they’re going to remember Dylan. They’re going to remember the Beatles. They’re going to remember Jimi Henrix. And they’ll probably remember Joni. That’s how good she was.”

Although he remains modest about his cultural contributions, it’s safe to say that Nash and his colleagues will likely be remembered, too. What makes the latest iteration of his roadshow so remarkable is that it is centered around Nash’s great gift for storytelling. And so night after night he’s been giving audiences a glimpse behind the metaphorical curtain of his life as a songwriter.

One such tale Nash shared with the Charleston City Paper involved building

the iconic pedal steel guitar parts of “Teach Your Children” with his pal Jerry Garcia.

“It was amazing,” Nash said. “When he did his first take, I said, ‘Jerry, that was incredible, the way you learned my song as you were listening to it.’ And he said, ‘Well, I made a couple of mistakes, can I do a second take?’ And I said, ‘Of course you can, but I’m never going to use it because the feeling you put into my song just now, having never heard it, was fantastic.’ We did eventually go back and repair his two one-note mistakes, but what you hear is basically his first take.”

After all these years, Nash’s passion for his life’s work is still infectious.

“I just love being alive, and I’m very proud to be a musician. I’m always working, and I’m always writing. People who don’t know about the craft but enjoy listening to songs tend to think it happens through some kind of magic. And in a way, they’re right. It is magical.”

Musician, photographer and activist Graham Nash has enjoyed a long and vibrant solo career. Still, this two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee is best known for his impactful work with Crosby, Stills & Nash; Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (CSNY); and the Hollies. On Nov. 9, Nash’s current international tour stops at Charleston Music Hall for an intimate show dubbed “60 Years of Songs and Stories” that promises to touch on all of these significant periods.

In spite of his storied past, Nash prefers to look forward as well as backward. A perfect example of this is his new album, Now, which features a recently penned tune called “Buddy’s Back,” Nash’s homage to ’50s rocker Buddy Holly recorded with childhood friend and Hollies co-founder Allan Clarke.

“I wrote that one with Allan in mind,” Nash said. “I mean, obviously we were the Hollies. We loved Buddy Holly. Buddy was ‘one of us.’ He wore a suit and tie and glasses. He wasn’t larger than life like Elvis.

And his songs will last forever.”

Unlike the old days where the two men might have actually shared a microphone, this time Nash deftly took advantage of modern studio techniques to bring the harmonies together from afar. “Allan and I were like 4,000 miles apart when we were recording. It was a fascinating experiment.

But you know, you still have to start with a good song. No amount of technology is going to turn a bad song into a good one,” Nash said.

The International African American Museum (IAAM) is home to 12 permanent exhibitions which feature more than 150 historical objects, 30 works of art, nearly 50 films and digital interactive experiences which bring history to life. It’s a groundbreaking museum that certainly bears multiple visits — but a particularly exciting reason for Charlestonians to regularly stop in is the museum’s special exhibitions gallery.

The special exhibitions gallery is a 3,000-square-foot space dedicated to temporary, rotating exhibits. It started off strong with its most recent presentation of the first museum solo exhibition by the Charleston-based visual artist Fletcher Williams III, a multimedia exhibition titled When it Rains, It Shines, on view now until Dec. 3.

The IAAM recently announced its next three special exhibitions — a variety of historical, immersive and artistic displays which expand upon the museum’s core offerings, said Martina Morale, Morale director of curatorial and special exhibitions at the IAAM. She added that the coming exhibitions will include traveling shows curated by other leading institutions, like next year’s Ming Smith retrospective, Feeling the

Future, as well as exhibits originated by the IAAM like When it Rains, It Shines.

Coming exhibitions

Opening Dec. 14 and on view until Jan. 15, 2024, the internally produced exhibition Creative Gathering: A Space for Gathering, Fellowship, and Reflection is an exhibition curated from the permanent collection of the IAAM. Morale said it will include contemporary art and historical objects and offer meditative spaces.

“We are really excited to curate something where we can show items that are not currently on view from our permanent collection and create space for dialogue,” she added.

American photographer Smith’s show Feeling the Future will kick off the museum’s 2024 exhibitions. Born in Detroit 1979, Smith is the first African-American female photographer whose work was acquired by the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The exhibition travels to the IAAM in 2024 from Jan. 31 through April 28 from the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, where it first opened in September.

The retrospective will explore the artist’s “unparalleled and under-recognized career from the early 1970s through the present,” Morale said. Smith’s practice, grounded in portraiture, serves as a passionate record of the cultural movements she witnessed and participated in.

“The exhibition will feature work from the last five decades — and so you’ll see all of these cultural moments that she’s witnessed,” Morale said, adding the exhibition will explore themes such as Afrofuturism, Black cultural expression, representation and social examination.

After Feeling the Future, the IAAM opens in May another internally produced exhibition which talks about the elusivity of “freedom” as a destination: Follow the North Star: Freedom in the Age of Mobility

Throughout African American History, which is slated to run May 23 through Nov. 3, 2024.

The exhibition explores the search for freedom through three distinct perspectives, Morale said. “It really looks at transportation, The Great Migration and spirituality and imagination.

It asks, ‘Where are we going mentally?’

We’re talking about metaphysical travel, storytelling, whether it was physically or mentally. From the Montgomery bus boycotts, to Afrofuturist visions of other planets, you talk about visions of other places and planets through this lens of mobility.”

YALLFest 2023 kicks off with a keynote from bestselling author and everyone’s favorite head of the Grishaverse, Leigh Bardugo! Renowned author Zoraida Córdova will join Leigh for this morning keynote.

Leigh Bardugo is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Ninth House and the creator of the Grishaverse (now a Netflix original series), which spans the Shadow and Bone trilogy, the Six of Crows duology, the King of Scars duology — and much more.

Zoraida Córdova is the acclaimed author and editor of more than two dozen novels and short fiction, including The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina, Star Wars: The High Republic: Convergence, and the Brooklyn Brujas series.

Please note: These authors will also be on another panel and doing signings, which are separate from the keynote. Not having a keynote ticket does not mean you will not get to see them.
