GameOn

"For the second year in a row at SEWE, local chefs will show attendees how to cook with game, as well as Certified South Carolina Grown products. Jimmy Huggins, SEWE president and CEO, thinks the demonstrations will be popular again this year. "We like to offer a variety of interesting things for our guests. Showing off some of the Lowcountry's great chefs preparing food with delicious South Carolina products seemed like a great idea," he says.

SEWE has lined up a particularly impressive group of Charleston chefs for the demonstrations, including Jeremiah Bacon of Oak Steakhouse, Michelle Weaver of Charleston Grill, Nathan Whiting of Tristan, Marc Collins of Circa 1886, Frank Lee of Slightly North of Broad, Fred Neuville of Fat Hen, and many others."
