Georgetown on the Plate
Kudzu Bakery & Market, hidden in a little courtyard a block off Front Street, serves delicious fresh-baked pastries and coffees. It’s also a fine spot to pick up wines and deli sandwiches for the day. If you want a broader selection of meats and prepared sides, visit Morsels Market on Front Street to pack a gourmet picnic.

The best white tablecloth restaurant in town, the Rice Paddy, is set in an old bank building. Reservations are a must here. Start your meal with a cup of the shrimp-and-corn chowder, a creamy mixture that’s now on our comfort food list. The crab cakes and lamb top the menu as nightly favorites.
