I’ve heard plenty about it, but never got around to going there. Like many places, it doesn’t look anything special from the outside. However, once we walked through the door, we got a warm friendly welcome, and invited to sit wherever we wanted. We choose a small table at the rear. I’m not usually interested in sweeter items (save for cheesecake), but the Fried Red Apple With Goat Cheese Salad on the specials board looked interesting so I plumped for that. Kathy went for the Mussels in White Wine Sauce.
The salad was excellent. Wonderful peices of crunchiness with soft apple inside that was just the right texture, and not to sweet or too sharp. It was complimented perfectly by the goat cheese, and plenty of fresh dark green leaves. No watery limp iceberg here! For the entree, I decided on the New Zealand burger, which was a half pound home made burger (as all their burgers are), with slices of beet, and pineapple and cheese. I chose not to have anything else with it, as the salad, although being an appetizer was quite filling in itself, and I decided to share the Sweet Potato Fries that Kathy had along with her burger.
To finish I had a wedge of their home made New York Style Cheesecake which was quite heavenly. All in all a great meal, with great service. The total bill including the drinks was $50.
By the time I woke up, got washed dressed and made some breakfast and coffee it was 6.35. Saturday mornings the traffic from North Charleston going downtown is very light, so we made it on time OK. Also there was plenty of nearby space in which to park.
It was foggy out across the Cooper River this morning. The Arthur Ravenel Jr Bridge was not at all visible when we got there, but after a while it started to clear, and by the time we left you could see across the river to Mount Pleasant, USS Yorktown, and the Marina. The fog made for a number of interesting shots, not least the boat one at the top of this post, which was sitting just out in the river from the end of the Waterfront Park pier. It really was an enjoyable photo session, and I worked up quite an appetite for breakfast afterwards! |

I’m always on the look out for different beers, and there are certainly plenty to choose from at Sesame. There are a number of bottled beers on offer, both domestic and overseas, and draft beers too. I went for a Coast HopArt IPA, which is brewed locally, not more than 2-3 miles from Sesame itself. It was a good flavorsome brew with plenty of hoppiness, as the name belied, balanced with just the right amount of malt flavors.
