Old Fashioned Building Billboard in the Lowcountry

Check out a great article in the Wed, March 15 "Dining Out" Section of the New York Times, F1, entitled " A Southern Star Rises in the Lowcountry - Charleston is proving itself as a new capital of regional cuisine", by R.W. Apple, Jr. The article by one of America's leading journalists (who has also written extensively on the topic of regional food around America) is entertaining. But this reason I call it to yopu attention is the great picture of an old-fashioned-style building billboard at the Hominy Grill in Charleston. There is a great picture of a classic mid-20th century waitress holding a tray with grits. Also on the billboards read the words "HOMINY GRILL...Grits are Good for you....Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner". It's worth a look.

By the way, we do not want to regional or provincial. It is the New York Times that is delivered to our front door, and NPR to our ear for news before we look elsewhere on the net. If you have sources and particular stories that you belief deserve attention (and keep us from the dreaded northeast bias), please let us know. We want to stay on the straight and narrow NATIONAL road (Canada too).
