Chef Michael Kramer leaving Houston for Greenville, SC | Houston Restaurants | 29-95.com
Sadly, Houston isn't exactly a great restaurant city and Voice never lived up to its hype. Good news, I guess. The day Stephan Pyles leaves Dallas and opens in Greenville, that will be NEWS.

Kilwins is a solid company, has been around FORever and is a staple in more tourist related areas. The other SC locationas I believe are HHI, Charleston and Myrtle.....all tourist. This new Kilwins location speaks well to the continuing growth of tourist who visit downtown Greenville.

In that regard, I was surprised to learn that Greenville County booked more hotel rooms than any other county in SC last June. June is typically a popular month for family beach vacations. I don't know how the counties compared in other months, but it was a nice revelation nonetheless.

Kramer is no stranger to the Greenville food scene. He did a Guest Chef Wine Dinner last July at Devereaux. Before that he competed in the 2010 Euphoria cook-off challenge. Earlier, while he was at McCrady’s in Charleston, Kramer managed to find time to be a source of inspiration for Steven Devereaux Greene, who went on to found his namesake restaurant, Devereaux, in Greenville.

I do agree. Typically prices are lower at Walmart/Target, so the only thing going for the dollar stores are their convenience since they are smaller and have more locations. Just be happy it's not a Dollar Tree
All $1 items+inflation=even more junk than the last time I was there, probably about 15 years ago. My grandma liked that store.


Any word on the new Forever 21 in Sears at Haywood?

They're opening a Forever 21 in Sears? Hot d*mn. They are a bit too trendy for my taste (for the most part) but I do occasionally run across good, but cheap vintage styled/boho stuff there. I still can't believe that they went into the Saks 5th Avenue on King Street in Charleston. The store is huge!

I'm looking forward to the Forever 39 & Holding store to open at the mall.
