green-tea ice cream the star. Henry and his brother Chai, who
runs Basil in Charlotte, grew up in the back of their parents’ noodle shop in Cambodia. Henry empha- sized the quality and freshness of what Basil has to offer, how the sizable shrimp are chemical-free and how what might look like Reddi-wip is actually fresh cream. He is a fan of natural food and a devotee of Whole Foods. And he praised the architect for her design of Basil’s new building in Mount Pleasant. Similarly, she, Tara D. Romano, vice
president of Neil Stevenson Architects of Charleston, said: “Henry has great taste in food, wine and design, hav- ing been exposed to some exceptional architectural design in his travels. He had both functional and aesthetic ideas to contribute to the building.” Basil Tai Restaurant is located in the Shops at Seaside Farms, just off Rifle Range Road and the Isle of Palms Connector.

Richard & Charlene
The Wreck of the
106 Haddrell Street, Mount Pleasant Open 5:30pm Daily
The Charleston City Paper on March 3, 2010 said, “The most unique Shem Creek dining experience, however, is to be found at The Wreck of the Richard and Charlene, named for a trawler wrecked by Hurricane Hugo near the spot where the restaurant stands today. That spot is a little hard to find, since it’s tucked away down in the Old Village neighborhood almost at the mouth of the creek (between Magwood & Wando).
“The Wreck is a low-key, bare-bones place that sits on a big dock looking out over Shem Creek. It specializes in big, freshly made portions of local seafood, and the menu is simple: various combinations of grilled or fried fish, shrimp and scallops, along with fried oysters, deviled crab and stone crab claws, too.”
