Make sure to save this for your next date night or trip out to Charleston. We were hosted by @galpaogauchousa Brazilian Steakhouse in their Charleston location, for a family date night. The atmosphere was lively from the moment we walked in, and the whole staff was so nice - I knew we were in for a treat! There are 3 menu options you can choose from - Salad Bar & Hot Sides $32, Full Experience $64, or A la Carte. Kids 7-11 are 50% of the meal price, and kids 4-6 are $6. There’s even happy hour pricing. Now those are some great prices!
We went for the Full Experience, which includes 17 different cuts of meats, the salad bar, and hot sides. You’re also served hot cheesy puff biscuits (sooo good!), mashed potatoes, fried plantains, chimichurri, and a hot sauce to go with your meats. To keep the meat coming, you flip the card at your table to Green, and to stop, flip the card over to the Red side. My favorite cut was the Picanha Apimentada, which is a spicy top sirloin, Carter loved the ribeye, Tyler’s favorite was the lamb, pork, and shrimp, and Kelsey’s was the chicken. I also got the Carajillo, which is an after-dinner coffee drink that they light on fire using Licor 43, and the kids shared the Strawberry Cream for dessert.

Are you coming out to explore Charleston? Make sure to start your morning off at the Black Door Cafe. It’s located inside the historic Mills House Charleston, which is that pretty pink hotel that was recently renovated. @theblackdoorcafe has one of the prettiest interiors, and the coffee and food is good too!
The kids had hot chocolates, a yogurt parfait, blueberry lemon muffin, and the BEC. Tyler had the BEC and a Caramel Macchiato, and I had a vanilla latte, and a sausage & smoked gouda breakfast sandwich. There’s even gelato and lunch items if you’re there later in the day.
The address is 115 Meeting St, Charleston, and they’re open from 6:30am to 8:00pm daily, there’s wifi, and if you can’t find street parking, you can valet your car or use the parking garage around the corner.

What’s easier than Piggies in a Blankie? I could’ve made this cuter with garnishes and and garlic butter spread but I’m all about the simple life… Roll out the croissant dough, slice them down to smaller pieces, and roll the lil smokies in them. Bake as usual with directions on the dough. #pillsbury #piggiesinablanket #appetizer #easyrecipe #holidayappetizer
Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup. Brown 1/2 onion (diced), add small diced chiles, 1 can petite diced tomatoes, 1 can corn, 1 can black beans, 1 can worth of chicken broth, and 1 tbsp cumin to start, and add more if you want. Top with sour cream, shredded cheese, and cilantro. *bonus* add a packet of taco seasoning instead of cumin for a really nice punch. #chickentortillasoup #soup #easyrecipes #souprecipe #soupseason

Thanksgiving appetizer: Stuffed Mushrooms. Brown 1/2 a roll of original sausage, and add a few dashes of Italian seasoning. Add to 1 pkg softened cream cheese with a few dashes of Italian seasoning on it. Mix together and pipe into 16 cleaned out mushrooms that have been heated so the moisture drains out. Sprinkle on some Parmesan cheese, then bake for 15 min in a 375•F oven. #thanksgiving #thanksgivingvibes #thanksgivingappetizers #thanksgivingapps #easyappetizers #easyappetizersideas #stuffmushrooms #easyrecipe #holidayappetizer #holidayappetizers
