Want to find Charleston’s most noted chefs sneaking a bite when they’re off duty? Your best bet is to head over to Two Boroughs Larder on Coming Street. Husband-and-wife team Josh and Heather Keeler have made a big splash among local food lovers with their stylish restaurant and market combo. Josh mans the kitchen, and his passionate commitment to fresh, local ingredients and an intense made-in-house aesthetic are starting to gain notice from outside of town too. The menu changes daily, with small plates offering tasty morsels like tuna conserva with shishito peppers and roasted beets dressed with crème fraîche. Keeler doesn’t shy away from the more adventurous bits, and head cheese, fried sweetbreads, and braised beef tongue appear with regularity. A few larger plates offer big-ticket steaks and specials like guinea hen confit, but you can keep it simple with a bowl of delicious housemade buckwheat noodles in a hearty pork broth. The small renovated storefront is tucked away down in the Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighborhood, but it’s already been discovered by folks from Travel + Leisure and New York Magazine. It’s been a good run so far, and we have a feeling Two Boroughs Larder is just getting started. —Robert Moss
