The gent behind the bow tie goes by Louis, a 27-year old recent Charleston transplant to Birmingham, AL. In a town with only a handful of male bloggers, Louis brings his refined style with a hint of big city living. The Bow Tie Gentleman is a digital spot to interact, inspire, and influence.... Welcome to the Bow Tie Gentleman!
Walking into Clerk’s Coffee at Hotel Emeline, I knew instantly I was in for a treat. If you’ve been to Charleston, you know Second State Coffee Roasters has some of the best coffee! To see them as the coffee partner for Clerks and the property let me know I wouldn’t be having to hit up anywhere else. Plus, it feels...
Listen, I can’t tell y’all how excited I was to be back in Charleston, SC! I must say I do miss it! One of the things that I miss most is having access to such cool places and such delicious restaurants. I know, I know, everywhere has great food and destinations, I’m just a little biased on what the Holy...
Relaxation and self-care has been a big focus for Grant and I. We tend to become workaholics and forget our bodies need some rest. We forget how good some R&R really is. When planning this trip, we knew we really wanted to get a massage and treat ourselves. On our second day in Charlotte, NC, we kicked off the day...
Are you ready for this? The Mico Restaurant at the Grand Bohemian Charlotte is probably the most stylish restaurant we’ve been to while traveling. The restaurant’s decor stays true to the property’s Argentinian flair with deep, rich colors, textures, intricate fixtures, and a hint of sexy. It was the perfect spot for us to reunite with some friends in Charlotte....

It goes...
Like the rest of the property, the Burgess Hotel’s restaurant allows you to enjoy a worldly palate inspired by the Western Mediterranean. The restaurant’s main attraction is the wood-fired grill that produces the rustic dishes on the menu infused with regional flavors. The menu is created by owner and Chef Burges Jokhi and Chef Daniel Porubiansky. Their focus includes prime...
There’s no doubt that we’re all currently missing being abroad, going on adventures, and discovering new places. That’s why when I heard about the Burgess Hotel, I was ecstatic to find a place to discover and experience worldly travels just a few hours from home. The Burgess Hotel is located in the heart of Atlanta’s Buckhead district. The moment you...
The next stop on our road trip took us a few hours away to a place we constantly sent pictures of back and forth to each other while dreaming of going. Chateau Elan is located outside of Atlanta, GA, and is nestled in between a great winery and golf course. This portion of our trip was really meant to get...
Going up…34 floors up that is. I let go of my fear of heights to experience a one of a kind dining experience at Bourbon & Steak. As you walk into the restaurant, you are taken aback by the 360 degree views. The Music city looks spectacular from the dining room. The flavors of each dish are definitely on par...
