Simply Amazing Dish of the Month award celebrates one-year anniversary

8/17/2019

Comments

When we started with the first award in August 2018, we never thought we'd make an impact. It was just a way to get people focused on a "simply amazing" dish at one of Georgetown County's restaurants.

But, with one year of the Simply Amazing Dish of the Month under our belt, it's become paramount in Georgetown County dining. 

Dan Axelson of City to City Apparel, who created our logo, took my brainstorming and designed the award logo and postcard placard with inscription. We also had stickers made so the restaurants can place on their door or windows. We decided one card and two stickers would be given to a winner. 

The first award was handed out to bisQit in Pawleys Island. That Carolina Burger still has us drooling.

We then decided after a few months of handing out the award we needed something to showcase the dish. Hats off to chef Kevin Levine at Scatori's Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant. He creates awesome cutting boards. His business is Hot Bloxx Cutting Boards and he heard about what we were doing and donated a board with our logo to us to provide some pop to the award winners. We started using the cutting board in January 2019. You can see below what a difference it has made.

​Enjoy, folks. We sure do.

More than 20 restaurants are announced so far. You'll be able to purchase tickets before the event or the day of. 

The event is put on by the Family Justice Center of Georgetown and Horry Counties. Here's more about it.
The Taste of Georgetown is a fundraiser for the Family Justice Center, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization providing coordinated services and educational programs for victims of domestic violence. The Family Justice Center has provided services to over 1300 victims of domestic violence.

Domestic violence is the willful intimidation, physical assault, batter, sexual assault, and/or other abusive behavior perpetrated by an intimate partner against another.

The Family Justice Center model is based on the first Family Justice Center which opened in San Diego in 2002. Since that time, more than 100 operational Family Justice Centers nationwide with 10 international Centers have opened.

August's Simply Amazing Dish of the Month: The Lunch Buffet @ Deborah's Kitchen

8/5/2019

There's a place in Maryville, heading south towards McClellanville, that's been serving good Southern homestyle cooking for lunch for many years. Locals know it by the smell of freshly cooked food in the area. Others point to the white sign with bold letters on the back side of the building facing U.S. Highway 17. All will agree, however, the food is fulfilling and satisfying. That place is Deborah's Kitchen, located at 1926 South Island Road.

Owner Deborah Scott and her staff have consistently been preparing great food to offer customers on her buffet. There's nothing like dining in a place where you feel like family as soon as you walk in. Deborah makes sure of that. Why, you ask?

Family is close to heart for her. In the past couple of years, she's lost her mother and husband. It's the folks coming in and enjoying her food that keep her spirits alive and well. 

And that smile she presents when you first walk in... priceless. 

My late grandfather Walter Mercer loved coming here after attending church at Wayne Methodist. Even when talking about that, she lights up like Christmas. 

Her lunch buffet is August's Simply Amazing Dish of the Month. And she deserves it. 

The menu changes daily, however, nothing beats that glorious fried chicken. The amazing and fluffy mashed potatoes are a must - and you have to top it with that creamy gravy.

Favorites include spaghetti, meatloaf, pork chops and chicken pilau. You also get salad and soups on the buffet. We love the vegetable soup. 

And the desserts are divine. Our go-to is the red velvet cake and chocolate delight. 

Deborah serves breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday, closed Saturday and a lunch on Sunday. 

If you have been fortunate enough to eat here, make it a point to grab a friend who's never been and introduce them to true Southern cooking with amazing hospitality. 

Congratulations, Deborah's Kitchen. Keep up the great work and keep being a great part of the culinary adventure of Georgetown County.
