Sports Bar in Downtown Charleston, SC

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — The downtown Charleston all-girls private school Ashley Hall is looking for a new way forward to host its annual 'Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day.’

The event has been hosted since 2017 in partnership with Charleston’s Federal Executive Association and different federal agencies. This year’s program was canceled, citing President Trump’s executive order terminating Diversity Equity and Inclusion, or DEI, as the reason.

“I was blindsided,” said Brooke Brewer, who has a seventh grader at Ashley Hall.

Dr. Anne Weston, Head of School at Ashley Hall, said the decision didn’t come from school officials, and that they were floored when a federal agency liaison contacted Weston with the news.

Weston said Ashley Hall was told the following: “The Charleston District (including the Federal Executive Association) is not able to participate in or coordinate the Introduce a Girl to Engineering outreach event at Ashley Hall this year.”

Future participation remains unknown, Weston said.

Brewer said her stomach was in knots when she read Weston’s weekend announcement.

“It just hits home when you realize that the federal government is interfering with your child's education and that they're not allowed to hold this program because of that,” she said.

The annual engineering event introduces more than 200 of the school’s seventh through 12th-grade students to local women working in STEM. Agencies like the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Joint Base Charleston have previously participated.

“Our girls get to see powerful role models,” Weston said. “They get to imagine what their math, science, computer programming courses that they're taking here now they might follow those through college and on into a career.”

The Head of School said the federal partners were also upset with the decision, and that they are treating it as a “pause” and not a complete stop.

Since the announcement, Weston said multiple local groups, including the College of Charleston and the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), have contacted Ashley Hall eager to participate in a revamped version of the program.

“Our hope would be to be able to continue this programming and if not, we will find new partners. And if we have both, we can partner and have an even larger event in the future,” Weston said.

Women only make up 24% of the STEM workforce in the U.S., according to data from Bushnell University in 2023.

Local non-profit Charleston Women in Tech said engaging young girls in hands-on STEM activities is a way to help close this gap.

“Our commitment to this goal grows from clear evidence that early STEM exposure is crucial for developing the next generation of tech talent,” the group told News 4. “Engaging all talented students in STEM education isn't just about equality, it's about building the skilled workforce our local economy needs to thrive and compete globally.”

‘Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day’ was scheduled for Feb. 21. Now, Ashley Hall is hosting a panel of female, STEM professionals to speak with students.

Parents and school leaders hope to see similar opportunities continue at Ashley Hall.

“This school is so supportive of girls, and they just want them to excel at everything,” Brewer said.

Old recipes, extra carbs, complex sauces, and cheese — it’s no shocker why Italian cuisine is adored. The temperature is dropping in the Lowcountry, so there’s no better time to cozy up to a bowl of handmade pasta. Restaurants choose the traditional approach or a fresh take on the classics, but one thing remains constant — dishes are always full of house-made components.

Take in the ocean views at this Isle of Palms destination while exploring an Italian menu with no shortage of seafood. Seasonal dishes like a marsala wreckfish with a potato crust offer a distinct take on Italian favorites.

This Sullivan’s Island stunner offers a menu full of seafood, handmade pastas, and wood-fired pizzas. Melt-in-your-mouth short rib gnocchi and strozzapreti with sausage ragu are among the diverse pasta options. Pizzas are topped with any and everything — the Five Fathom Hole 3.0 features Clammer Dave’s clams and rapini. Note: Following a fire, the Obstinate Daughter closed temporarily in January, so check to see if it has reopened.

Old-school Italian spot Cuoco Pazzo Trattoria offers all the hits: lasagna alla Napoletana, fettuccini alfredo, spaghetti alla carbonara, veal marsala, shrimp scampi, and more.

Located in the handsome Emeline hotel, Frannie & the Fox offers Italian bites near the Market. Hits include the wood-fired pizzas, blue crab fritters, chicken Milanese, meatballs with whipped ricotta and a white Negroni on tap.

Charleston-based Beemok Hospitality Collection and chef Michael Mina’s Mina Group opened the gorgeous Italian restaurant Sorelle in 2023, and it’s since been a go-to for swanky dates and luxurious meals. Serving brunch and dinner, Sorelle excels in southern Italian cooking, which means grilled octopus, picatta-style swordfish, and mafaldine with

barolo-braised beef cheeks.

Le Farfalle’s modern take on Italian cuisine makes the dimly lit eatery a go-to spot for a a family gathering, date night, or comforting meal alone with a plate full of perfectly cooked pasta. Memorable dishes include the duck-confit-stuffed agnolotti and the jumbo lump crab with linguine.

Indaco is a cozy nook of a restaurant on Upper King. The wood-fired oven glows as pizzas and Italian entrees are prepared. The burrata is always a hit to share, and the seasonal pastas always have comforting combinations like the tagliatelle with pork tesa and a Storey Farms egg.

Chef Vinson Petrillo pulls inspiration from his own Italian family’s traditions for the menu at Costa. Popular starters include the scallop crudo with passionfruit or burrata with a seasonal setup. Try the beef cheek tortellini and then move on to the eggplant Parmigiana, pork Milanese, or grilled swordfish. The dining room and bar are seductive, with some of the best lighting in town — perfect for date nights.

Classic Italian dishes are revamped with bright, unexpected ingredients at Melfi’s. Slices of doughy bread topped with combinations like avocado and pistachio invigorate the bruschetta, and handmade pastas are packed with intense flavors. Diners also can’t go wrong with the crisp Melfi’s Roman-style pizzas — the kitchen’s take on the margherita is a standout thanks to a creamy, housemade stracciatella cheese.

Hip Huger Street stop Renzo might be better known for wood-fired pizza and funky wines, but this restaurant also packs in some great versions of Italian staples in the “Not Pizza” section of the menu. The pillowy ricotta gnudi with bagna cauda and the gargati Bolognese are in heavy rotation this winter, but always try the special, whatever it is.

Make the short drive off the peninsula to Johns Island for authentic Italian cuisine using local ingredients. Look for handmade ravioli, pappardelle, and lasagna with added flare from a venison, elk, and ribeye combination. Customers can get the best of both worlds by adding a $7 side of gnocchi to any meat or seafood entree.

If you've made your way through the Essential Brunch restaurants in Charleston and still yearn for another mimosa in a different setting, we present this list of the new spots servicing the early crowds.

New to the map this month: Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery, which recently opened in the West Side neighborhood.

Selections are listed geographically from north to south.

Tucked away in the West Side neighborhood, Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery serves as a laid-back brunch option with outdoor seating when the weather is nice. The menu is a primer in all the brunch favorites: breakfast burritos, biscuits, omelets, French toast, and a bowl of grits with your choice of toppings.

Buzzy restaurant the Select offers a brunch menu of greatest hits — from shakshuka to chilaquiles to French toast. Be sure to order an enormous cinnamon roll for the table.

Every year millions of visitors come to Charleston with one question, “Where can we get good seafood?” While many locals are inclined to shuffle tourists off to a Market Street crab house, we wouldn’t maintain our reputation as the most polite city in America if we did that. The following is a guide to everything seafood in Charleston. Look beyond the Lowcountry boil, and stop at one of these establishments for a real Holy City experience.

The Kingstide sits on the Daniel Island waterfront, which is prime seating when the weather is nice. Diners stop in for a chance to sample chef Kevin Getzewich’s menu of creative fish dishes like crab agnolotti or a trout Rueben. There’s also more traditional dishes, like a packed lobster roll, and plenty of items to choose from at the raw bar.

Leon’s gives fried-fish goodness with a side of crispy chicken and freshly-shucked oysters. This North Central hangout is the spot to be if you prefer perfectly-battered bait with a glass of rosé and New Orleans soul pumping out the speakers. The outdoor patio is the place to be if the weather is nice.

Neighborhood restaurant Chubby Fish doesn’t take reservations, so show up early for a chance to try James Beard-nominated chef James London’s fare. Oysters and a caviar sandwich are a good way to start the evening and then onto chili shrimp and smoked wahoo curry.

What can be said about the Ordinary that hasn’t already been printed in hundreds of other publications? The hype is real. Gather friends and family, make a reservation, and luxuriate in the two-story dining room housed in a former bank from 1927. Standouts include the oyster sliders, smoked cobia pate, and the New Orleans-style barbecue shrimp. Imbibers should finish the night with a few rum drinks and go home very happy.

Upper King hot spot the Darling keeps a lively dining room full of guests seeking fry baskets, Creole shrimp, and lobster rolls. The attractive space draws in crowds night after night. Go early for happy hour and sit at the window-facing raw bar to watch the hustle on King Street between shucks.

Dave’s Carry-Out has somewhat unpredictable hours, but if visitors can find the Morris Street dining room open, then they are in for some of the best fried fish around. Most people take their food to go, but there’s a few tables scattered about and a television on, so folks like to hang out and discuss the day. The popular seafood platter allows diners to sample fried shrimp, scallops, fish, and a deviled crab.

The Wreck of the Richard & Charlene is a dive of a restaurant on Shem Creek. Customers sit on mismatched patio furniture on the expansive porch overlooking the water as they dine on fried shrimp, red rice, hush puppies, and deviled crabs.

Located in a historic Charleston home, Delaney Oyster House is a handsome space for seafood dining. The menu offers crab claws, oysters, crab rice with sofrito, caviar service, a daily catch, and more. And if you miss Red Lobster, Delaney offers its own version of the cheddar bay biscuits in hush puppy form.

Seafood house 167 Raw started as a small storefront on East Bay Street and has since upgraded to a multi-dining room space on King Street, but that has not diminished the crowds vying to grab a seat for perfectly shucked oysters, little neck clams, or a jumbo shrimp cocktail. The restaurant doesn’t take reservations, but it does offer online ordering. The lobster roll with a buttery, buttery bun is the stuff of legends. Don’t sleep on the shrimp taco or the frosé.

Vintage-chic restaurant Sullivan’s Fish Camp offers American classics like peel-and-eat shrimp and fried seafood baskets paired with international flavors like XO shrimp fried rice and swordfish al pastor tacos. The retro nautical-themed dining room is a great spot to grab a bite and a drink before hitting the beach.

James Island spot Cuda Co. offers a bounty of fresh seafood for purchase, but it also has a menu of delicious dishes for takeout or dining at one of the outdoor picnic tables. Grab a sticky coconut rice bowl with slices of salmon or the top-rated fried flounder sandwich with American cheese.

Any visitor Charleston must trek out to Bowens Island at least once. The experience of non-stop steamed oysters, cheap beer, and creekside views makes for lasting memories. It’s rustic (some say “dive”), and a bit hard to find, but as former Eater restaurant editor Bill Addison said, “It has been a draw for decades and remains luring both for its ramshackle funkiness and the gut-level goodness of its food.” And if you’re searching for a Lowcountry boil, a combination of corn, sausage, shrimp, and potatoes, this is the place to find it.
