From book and film festivals to holiday happenings, November is an action-packed and appetizing month to visit Charleston. Meet and greet your favorite young adult authors during YALLFest, head to the historic Dock Street Theatre to enjoy authentic African-American folktales, songs and stories, and tie up your laces for the 39th Annual Turkey Day Run & Gobble Wobble 5K. Celebrate National Sandwich Day with a hearty meal at Butcher & Bee, savor a slice of Ultimate Coconut Cake® at Peninsula Grill, or meet us for lavender scented brioche french toast at Halls Chophouse, recently named #4 “Best Restaurant in America” by TripAdvisor! You’ll find us catching featured screenings during the Charleston International Film Festival (popcorn, please!), scoring major Black Friday deals and steals on King Street, and joining in the Hamlet hype at 34 West Theater.
