The Grey

#OrderFireFriday . . . Lowcountry Fresh Market & Café is due to open in Bluffton this spring. A place that in conjunction with the Gullah Farmers’ Cooperative Association is designed to support the local community by offering a place that sells local produce, seafood and more. Our friend, Chef B.J. Dennis, has signed on as their Culinary Director. We know his knowledge, passion and dedication to the foodways of the South will benefit Bluffton and far beyond. Looking forward to checking it out!

Happy Thursday! Service starts at 5 pm in The Diner Bar and at 6 pm in the Main Dining Room. See you for a drink and a bite.

Dinner for Two is back in action over at The Grey Market. That’s a rotisserie chicken, two sides, bread and a bottle of wine for $39. . . Available from 4 to 7 pm every Thursday.

The end of the year has arrived! Though nothing about 2020 was normal, we’ll be hosting our annual New Years festivities. Our kitchen team has put together a stellar pre-fixed dinner for New Years Eve and the Oyster Roast in The Yard sold out within days. We’re thankful for the support the community of Savannah and the restaurant industry has shown us over the past year. We hope to see you for dinner or a drink in The Diner Bar tomorrow night. Here’s to ringing in 2021!

Wishing you all a merry holiday and a happy new year! We’ll be closed for the week, but look forward to ringing in 2021 with you for our annual NYE dinner next Thursday. See you then.

The end of 2020 is in sight, which means we’re gearing up for our annual New Year’s Day oyster roast. From 12 to 3 pm we’ll be drinking, eating and saying hello to a welcomed fresh start. Join us by clicking the link in our bio.

#OrderFireFriday . . . Many people dedicate their lives to wine; some study it’s history, some focus on selling it while others are just here for the party. We love that all of these types of people exist but hold the winemakers themselves at a special level of respect. Shout out to winemaker Cathy Corison, a woman who started her career nearly 45 years ago, who’s focus on the grape and sustainability results in straight up elegant vintages.

You don't have to be in Savannah to get a taste of the Lowcountry on your kitchen table this season. We ship nationally through our partner @goldbelly and these holiday packages are sure to bring some comfort & joy. Our DIY meals will be delivered right to your door.

After a long hiatus because of book obligations, our managing partner, Johno Morisano, comes back to blog writing. Read about the launch of the The Current GA a new news source in Savannah and coastal Georgia, inspired by the memory of our friend Scott Waldrup.

#OrderFireFriday . . Okay, let’s keep the support of small businesses going through the month of December. Savannah has a ton of cool stores to pop in and out of. Here’s a few vintage shops located in the downtown area. Stop by to look around and holiday shop!

Today's pastry basket is hard to pass up. Buttermilk crullers, apple and sage brioche & pain au chocolat.

Oh, you know, just enjoying a Hot Toddy in the yurt village. Book yours today at the link in our bio!

#OrderFireFriday . . Let’s not let #SmallBusinessSaturday end! There’s lots of necessary shopping to do during the month of December. Let’s keep it loca! Savannah has a ton of great shops to visit. Shops owned by our creative and thoughtful neighbors! Shops like, Chef Darin’s Kitchen Table on Abercorn Street. A great place to grab a gift for your home chef BFF!

We’re always excited when the months start ending in the letter R, because that means Ernest and Ernest Jr. start coming around. We are proud to serve Harris Neck’s E.L. McIntosh & Son Seafood at The Grey year after year. . . . #OrderFireFriday

The day has come. Starting tonight, our partnership with American Express and Resy, the Yurt Village will open! We’re so excited to be a part of the 13 restaurants involved in this remarkably warm dining experience. Join us through the winter months, right up to the end of February, in The Yard at The Grey for a special Yurt menu and a lot of fun. All reservations can be made through Resy and will require an American Express card for booking. See you in the yurts!

Lettuces; shaved parmesan, broken anchovy dressing

Whole Fish... now being served in The Diner Bar. Oh yeah.

VOTE. Election day should be a National Holiday. But working Americans across the country must often choose between casting a ballot or losing a shift. No voter should have to make that choice. No one should be denied or limited in their ability to vote because of work. And all Americans should be allowed the patriotic opportunity to spend Election Day as critical poll workers or volunteering to secure the right to speak our minds.... This year we are joining with restaurants across the country ensuring our establishments will be closed on November 3rd. With over 11 million employees, independent restaurants have the power to influence outcomes up and down the ballot. Our Democracy is founded on our participation. And at no other time has our collective power been more challenged than during this pandemic. Voting is not a Red or Blue issue, it’s a Red, White and Blue issue. We realize that, despite many months of struggle, we have the strength now to support our workers as they head to the polls. Please join us.

Each Sunday from 11 am to 4 pm it’s Brunch time at The Grey.

Foie & Grits; blueberry mostarda and onion gravy.

#OrderFireFriday . . Shout out to the oh-so talented crew at @thecoffeefox. Thanks for all the neighborly love & trusting @thegreymkt with your fried chicken needs every freakin' Sunday. You guys rock. Check them out for some delicious brews at the corner of Broughton & Drayton.

Some of you might remember a few years back when our friend and chef Ned Baldwin came down to cook at The Grey from his restaurant Houseman in NYC. Ned and Mashama go way back to Prune and Johno has been giving Ned's cookbook, "How to Dress an Egg" a pandemic, we-eat-in-more-than-we-eat-out, work out. His book came out earlier this year and if you like simple, delicious food, this needs to be in your cookbook arsenal. Really, it does! #goodfriends #simplefoodisdeliciousfood #nedbaldwin #mashamabailey #johnomorisano #howtodressanegg #nyc #savannah

Spiked Tomato Water; clarified tomato, mezcal, tequila : @welcometoeastwoods

#orderfirefriday . We’re so excited about the opening of Sea Wolf Tybee. Can’t wait to head to the beach to check out how this creative and talented crew set up their second location. Congratulations to the whole team. (Disclaimer: this photo was stolen from Sea Wolf Tybee's Instagram account.)

Hey guests and supporters of The Grey and The Grey Market. We have been extremely understaffed since we reopened in July and have been running our restaurants with a skeleton crew but meeting our service standards (for the most part) during that period. Over the last week or so, we have had a few folks on the team test positive and other folks go to get tested and are awaiting results before returning to work. Rather than forcing the issue of trying to provide our desired lev...el of service and further stress everyone out during what is already a very stressful time, we have decided to close The Grey and The Grey Market for the remainder of the weekend. This will allow us to catch our collective breath. We will provide an update on next week’s status around Tuesday or Wednesday. Of course, we continue to follow all appropriate health and safety protocols within the restaurants. Thanks for understanding as we do our best to navigate what is nearly an unnavigable time. See more
