In most ballparks, the umpire is the villain. He is the guy grandmas curse from the bleachers. The man blamed for every called third strike and every close play at the plate. Invisible when he is right. Crucified when he is wrong. But inside the world of the Savannah Bananas, the script flips. Subscribe for […]

Just two guys who decided to turn a wine bar into a restaurant in the middle of one of the most competitive food cities in the South. “Who does that?” Ryan Ribiero laughs when I float the idea of the angle. “It’s very hard to do.” Exactly. Sobremesa was never supposed to be what it […]

Savannah has plenty of places to drink. It has plenty of places to eat. What it has not had, until now, is this. Tucked just off Forsyth Park, behind those doors you might have once assumed were reserved for members only, Bar Bibi has quietly shifted the energy. What was recently limited to hotel guests […]

There are bars in Savannah that announce themselves loudly. Neon. Crowds spilling onto the sidewalk. A sense that you are supposed to be there because everyone else already is. And then there are places like Black Rabbit, sitting just off the main current, doing the work patiently, night after night, without ever asking for permission […]

The thing about Peter Pan Goes Wrong is that the title sounds like a joke until you realize how insanely difficult this show actually is. Because for a production built entirely around chaos, everything has to be meticulously controlled. That is part of what makes SCAD’s upcoming production at the Lucas Theatre so interesting. Beneath […]

For one night, Savannah is getting dropped directly into the middle of the modern comedy universe. Judd Apatow Presents Comeback King Comedy Night arrives at SCAD Trustees Theater on May 17, bringing with it a lineup that feels less like a normal comedy tour and more like a backstage conversation somehow spilling onto a stage […]

There is something about FARM that makes it feel closer than it is. Not geographically, but emotionally. The bridge barely registers. It gets spoken about the same way you talk about a neighborhood restaurant, the kind of place that feels stitched into your own routine. That is strange, if you stop and think about it. […]

Savannah is finally stepping into its culinary confidence. And sometimes the next level does not arrive with a grand opening or a ribbon cutting. Sometimes it shows up in a second floor apartment with fifteen courses, a perfectly timed playlist, a nd two chefs who refuse to compromise. That is punk rock fine dining. And […]

Yes, there were great restaurants. Long before national attention arrived, locals knew the quiet magic of places like Elizabeth on 37th and The Olde Pink House. They carried Savannah’s reputation for hospitality with pride. Elegant dining rooms, polished service, and food that generations of Savannahians grew up celebrating. But something else happened in 2014. A […]

Savannah came up almost immediately, not as a tour stop, but as a place that has changed. “I can remember playing there back in the late 90s, early 2000s,” Mark Trojanowski, Drummer for Sister Hazel says. “A lot of places were basements, kind of like dungeons. Now everything down by the river, the restaurants, the […]

The drive to Tybee has a way of loosening your shoulders. Somewhere after the marsh opens up and, the city noise fades. You start thinking differently. Shoes feel optional. Time slows down. By the time you turn onto Van Horne Avenue, you are already in a different headspace. That is part of the point. For […]

Annie Coleman and Flora & Fauna are the perfect fit. There is a particular calm that settles over Bull Street in the morning. Before the neighborhood fully wakes up, before the coffee lines and sidewalk conversations, there is the smell. Butter. Yeast. Heat. It drifts out of Flora and Fauna in a way that feels […]

There’s a certain kind of patience that runs through the . It is not rushed. It does not beg for attention. It shows up when it is ready. That same patience lives inside. You hear it before you even see him live. “I’m not one of those… get up every morning, have a cup of […]
