What Restaurants are Popular on Southern Charm?

Season 11 of “Southern Charm” is back on, & it happens to coincide with the fact that my friends & I just returned from an EPIC girl’s trip to Charleston!  We ate & drank our way around the city, trying restaurants like swanky Husk downtown, plus a fabulous brunch on Sullivan’s Island (where Shep just bought a million dollar home).  When planning our meals, it would’ve been handy to have a quick guide to know what restaurants are popular on “Southern Charm!”
