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!
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...
The next stop on our celebratory road trip kept us right in the Music City. Entering through the lobby, we instantly knew we wanted to move in rather than stay for a few nights at the JW Nashville. Take a look at this lobby – it screams Louis & Grant. The lobby is just a tease to the rest of...
You all know we love giving you a closer look into all things new. It had been a while since Grant or I had been to Nashville, so we knew we wanted to spend some time checking out the new spots and visiting some old favorites with plenty of time to enjoy. By just looking at the lobby of the...
We’ve all missed traveling, especially making those unforgettable memories. Grant and I love to celebrate each month of us being together. Usually it’s a little date night action at our favorite restaurant or our favorite food in a unique location. We like celebrating this special day each month a little more to keep the romance alive while showing each other...
There’s nothing like a Charleston picnic! Whether you’re enjoying it on the beach, at water front park, the battery or right in your own backyard. We were lucky enough to be in one of Guest House Charleston’s newest compound of luxury homes and steps away from a beautiful picnic location. Charleston porches are a signature of the South. We used...
Y’all thought our accommodations were good?! Check out this courtyard right outside of our beautiful Guest House Charleston home. I knew we had to enjoy the beautiful patio in a fun way. Thanks to Hamby Catering, we were able to do just that with delicious food! The beautiful space reminded me of a European courtyard so we knew a well...
