Christen Eats Food and drink

was the 2nd place in Greenville that I found when I moved back that felt like home. (1st goes to - they’re keeping it all in the family 🤣) I continued to find myself stepping through the doors on Pendleton St and then faithfully followed them to . I am so grateful for this place and the people who inhabit it. I’m very thankful for the chance to not only work with them but to feel part of the team. Happy belated birthday ! You’re the best! ❤️

Swipe through from my first few pics to more recent ones - and hopefully see how much better my photography has gotten. 😅

So excited for and their new location! 🎉🍦 They officially open on the 30th! And if you live over in the Lauren’s Rd area, you are one lucky duck to have them in your neighborhood ☺️

Also, peep my stories for the CUTEST wallpaper by .schipper 😍

This Paris-Brest of almond and peach was the finale to the .gvl dinner and my favorite of the night!

Do you ever have a dish you just can’t get out of your head? For me it was this galette from small plates last weekend. .rae you are a wizard! 😍🤤

Food photography lately. 📸 Really enjoying my new camera. Thanks to for helping me upgrade! ☺️

Just a shoutout to my friend and the crew for serving up delicious food and not being too annoyed when I get in the way to take pictures. Grateful to get to work around such a great team of people who consistently pump out some of my favorite food in Greenville. ❤️

Loved getting up close and personal with this gorgeous dessert by for ! 😍 Swipe for the final effect! 🌫️

Happy ! 🍹 Where are you celebrating?

📍

Happy ! 🍕 Here’s some glamour shots of GB&D pizza that I took. 🤤😍☺️

If you haven’t hung out at at , you’re missing out on some truly amazing cocktails. This one’s called “I’m Not A Margarita.” It’s not a margarita but it’s got the same vibe, except it’s built with gin instead of tequila, , citrus, and other things I forgot about. It’s delicious. 🙌

I’ve been dreaming about the food at Perch since I went to their soft opening. 😍 Everything we tried from the poutine to the pierogis was delicious!

I loved how the cheese curds were slightly fried and the addition of sausage made this starter more like a meal. I’ve always been a huge pierogi fan, so I’m really excited to have somewhere in Greenville to satisfy that craving. Can’t wait to go back for the Haluski next time

If you haven’t been to Harry’s Hoagie Shoppe yet you are seriously missing out! I may be biased but they are some of the best sandwiches in Greenville. 🤤

My personal faves: Tommy Gunn, The Widger (pictured), Porchetta, The M.A.P., and the Italian tuna salad. But honestly you cannot go wrong with whatever you choose! 🙌

The most delicious cocktail from Sovereign Remedies 🤤. Need another Asheville weekend STAT!

Help celebrate Pints for Paws! 🐾 From now until August 31st a dollar from every order of Farmers Tan Red Ale will go towards ! AND has offered to match the donations! 🎉

Thanks to for hosting me, Hazel, and our friends on their patio! It was the perfect dog-friendly spot to chow down on some delicious chicken! 🐔

Love this organization!!!

Food Truck Friday: Hostmobile FOX Carolina is putting a spotlight on Upstate food trucks. This week we met with Hostmobile, a food truck focused on giving back to the community with food and opportunites.

Honestly my fave drink in Greenville right now: Nightmare on Coffee Street from . ☕️ Just follow the red light 😍 ||

I got to spend a Monday bringing ’s vision to life! Beautifying this tablescape with the team for their Pride Pie Party at was so much fun! 🌈🏳️‍🌈 🥧 ||

I love these people! So excited for the Resident DYNASTY! Resident Dogs

Resident Dogs doubles down, opening in Travelers Rest and Greenville Resident Dogs will open two restaurants within a week, with the Travelers Rest location coming on the heels of a spot at Gather GVL in Greenville's West End.

Is this not the prettiest avocado toast? 😍🥑🍞 This is my fave quick breakfast from at when I have a million things to do and forget to eat. 😅 Which has been happening a lot lately. 🫣 Owning your own business is cool and all but man, my boss can be a real witch sometimes 🤣 ||

Vacations are fun but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t so ready and excited to get back to this goof. 🥰

Honestly not over how delicious the Bean Jive from is! 🤤Black bean, sweet potato, and chickpea fritters with sauces to die for… and get this! MINT PICKLED GRAPES. 🙌 Don’t sleep on this new menu item (that’s also VEGAN)!

Had the most delicious dinner at the soft opening for ! 🤤 We started off with the wreckfish ceviche and hush puppies. The crispy corn was such a fun texture paired with the ceviche and the malt vinegar butter with the hush puppies was ridiculously tasty. 🤤

We shared the fish and chips and lamb sandwich. One of my favorite meals on my London trip was proper fish and chips. has done a wonderful job at recreating that experience right down to the mushy peas. (Loved their addition of mint) The roasted lamb sandwich really blew me away and was hands down my favorite dish of the evening. 🙌Don’t sleep on it just because it’s a seafood forward spot!

Their cocktail program is wonderful. I got the Lion’s Mane which had some lovely warming spices from the pimento dram - highly recommend! We also tried the Tongue Twister which was also delicious - if you love mezcal, this is your drink. I’m really excited to go back and try the rest of the menu, especially the Zombie on Draft.

And of course we couldn’t leave without the sticky toffee pudding we saw coming out to other tables. It was just perfection!

The service was outstanding! Our server made sure we had the best experience and was quick to answer our questions and tell us about their personal favorites. Overall just a wonderful dining experience. They are now open for reservations so hit them up and tip your servers well! ❤️

LONG POST BUT READ IT!! 🚨 To know is to love . 🥰 And if you’ve visited on a Monday you know Meredith. She’d give you the shirt off her back and cut up a we**ie for your dog if they were hungry (peep that last pic of Hazel patiently waiting on her food). Well it’s time that we give back to this incredible human and her team. 🎉 Meredith is almost to the finish line with Resident Diner, a dive bar meets diner concept with fun comfort food in TR. But she needs our help! We’ve created a really fun campaign with some really amazing perks! Click the link in my bio to donate and let’s get this diner open!!! 🌭❤️
