The Boathouse: Tales and Recipes from a Southern Kitchen is a cultural and food history of the Lowcountry and western North Carolina mountains. The book features more than 80 recipes organized by season, including classical Charleston and mountain favorites and some new scrumptious gems. It is peppered with many tales and tips that are themselves tasty morsels to be savored.

Praise for The Boathouse:

“The remarkable recipes with so many great stories just shout the glory of the cooking traditions of the Carolina Lowcountry and honor the creations of the Gullah and European cooks who learned from each other. The pages are loaded with facts about one of America’s truly outstanding food and cooking cultures. Reading it is a joy and using the recipes reminds me of why I love being a chef. This important and impressive work now occupies a prominent place in my personal cookbook library.”

CHEF MARVIN WOODS, author, restaurateur and host of Turner South’s hit show, “Home Plate.”

“The Boathouse: Tales and Recipes from a Southern Kitchen is a perfect example of one of my favorite types of cookbooks. It’s not only loaded with mouth-watering recipes; it’s also a good read, packed with regional history, personal tales and ingredient tips. It’s a great culinary and cultural reference.”

BOBBY FLAY, restaurateur, cookbook author and CBS-TV food correspondent

“Richard Stoney’s two venerable Boathouse restaurants have grown up with contemporary Charleston, and everyone is better for it. This charming cookbook is a mélange of the best of Charleston eating and most colorful of Charleston’s “characters.” I found it irresistible!”
