he built a successful operation, pays attention to the quality of the ingredients, supports and trains his staff on what he expects, and is now expanding so his staff can realize their dreams too... if u could create a single model on how it should be done... this is it
I appreciate this chef. Unlike a lot of these pompous and pretentious restaurant owners presented on this channel, this chef actually discusses the food, the menu, the staff, the cooking and where ingredients are sourced...............not the "story" or "message" or "canvas they paint their picture on" or "aura of the space" and then serve strange and pitiful little morsels of what they refer to as food at insane prices. Its like bro, if you wanna be an artist, then go be an artist and leave the cooking to the cooks. This guy is actually someone who understands his role as a restaurant owner and chef and acts accordingly. Kudos to him. The line outside tells me the food is amazing as well.
This is what I miss about living in the Charleston area. I am continuously disappointed by restaurants elsewhere. I never had a bad meal in Charleston.
Frequent Charleston a lot. Hit this spot weekend of my wedding - what a way to start the wknd. Loads of high quality food scene in the city in such a concentrated area, so to stand out - it's quite impressive. Need to revisit this spot!
props for being innovative and being genuine. opening a restaurant is one thing....opening a restaurant and creating a template or platform for other sou chefs to one day step up and take it over is next level.
the best FOOD i have ever eaten in my entire life was fresh caught Mahi Mahi, walked into a Mexican Restaurant in Puerto Vallarta and gave them the fish that we caught that day and they cooked it a handful of ways. Fry, Grilled, Baked. I was amazed how fresh fished tasted.
For anyone that cares those portable AC units have a condensate tank that needs to be emptied. If it’s really humid you might have to empty them 3-4 times a day to keep them running or run a line to a drain.
I go to school down the street and saw a huge line for the last couple months everyday. Now I know everyone wants some fresh seafood, will have to check it out sometime
I live in Charleston the food scene here is amazing. If your food & service isn’t top tier you won’t last. I can confirm & recommend Chubby Fish in y’all are in the 843
Best seafood I've had was on Boracay, Philippines, You walked around the fish market, choose whatever you wanted, then you went to the food stalls and they'd cook what you brought with whatever fresh produce they had that day, Amazing stuff.
10:18 "we're gonna be serving this with a little ginger scallion sauce, which stays out of the way of the natural flavor of the flounder" *Proceeds to completely smother the entire fillet with a thick sauce of scallions and ginger, which are known to be extremely potent flavors*
Scallion and ginger are strong flavors, but they're aromatics. Top notes. They ride on top of the fish rather than competing with it. You get to taste all of the components. Just like how the vinegar and wasabi in a piece of sushi are strong flavors, but they elevate the taste of the fish rather than covering it up.
@@mediocreaaliasa501 That is a fair argument but I still have to agree with george who quoted " a little ginger scallion sauce" and it was indeed smothered.
This is just a fancy expensive Michelin-fied Fish Camp. Just go to a normal Fish Camp spot, they're usually adjacent to a wholesale fish market. The food is incredible and affordable.

We need more chefs like this. Where the quality and freshness of the product is of utmost importance.
Amen. Yes no truer word's have been said.
We need more chefs like you, Rose. Chefs like like to dance
These are the only kinds we need
Eh

Also works with family owned and local businesses!!
Oh, like an executive chef?!

The food is my favorite thing about trips to Charleston

Another reason why I love living in Charleston, the food is unmatched, and people around a lot of the country don't even realize it haha
Only 40 miles away. Will definitely check it out
If you want to get in they don’t take reservations. You’ve got to line up around the block an hour or two before they open.
@@ScabbyBoi thanks

Can confirm this place is fantastic
SHHHHH don't tell everyone BA, it's already hard enough to get a table here!
How every seafood restaurnt should operate!
One of the best restaurants in charleston. The smoked fish dish is incredible
editing for this vid was on point! Love the bg tracks
"A little bit of scallion sauce" proceeds to double the portion size with sauce
Was my first and only thought about this. Then the inauthentic answer of "I'm doing this for my other chefs" lmao
This guy gets it.
I love when people love what they do!!
Loving all of this SC representation, we have some amazing restaurants here
You guys are gonna FLOOD this city even more 😂
why do people who move to the Carolina’s love to pretend black people don’t exist?
Nothing is wasted! Excellent system and superb technique!
The best leader makes better leaders …. Touché
JAMES LONDON YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING SIR 👏🏽🗣️
Sunburst trout farms!!! Outside Asheville NC; great product, they do great smoked trout as well
Love the chef his approach and the culture he is building
Really fantastic operation you got here, the quality and attention to detail is killer
they just called it "Fish" before I went there
Really let themselves go
I’ve never wanted to try everything on a menu more than this place. I gotta visit!
this guy is a legit chef i can tell. kudos to him.
what a badass chef - solid, stable dude
Such an inspiration!! As a chef I want to do this !!! Awesome !!!!
wow....great theme & concept !! Gotta try Everything.....Esp. the Caviar. !!! Thanks
as someone who isn’t a seafood fan, i love learning about it! this seems like a great spot :)
Love it! Superb presentation. I wish I could get that wide a variety of fresh fish at my local grocery stores.
To think while in Mexico I’ve walked into some restaurants with my own fish and they cook it on the spot. No prep just of vibes.
the best FOOD i have ever eaten in my entire life was fresh caught Mahi Mahi, walked into a Mexican Restaurant in Puerto Vallarta and gave them the fish that we caught that day and they cooked it a handful of ways. Fry, Grilled, Baked. I was amazed how fresh fished tasted.
I like the concept of having an area where people come while they wait for their table
Thanks Chef! Miss working with you in San Francisco. Can't wait to visit you soon!
Thanks for what you are doing for Charleston.
Thank you very much....I am on a roll of watching great food content.....
I love flounder and sand dabs, delicious!!
Truly drool worthy. Delish!
I appreciate that it's catch and release on the Bow River in Alberta Can. but gosh dangit! I love eatin rainbow trout. 👌
I would be happy to visit this place.
The prices are not crazy great job

Yeah seems like his contractor kinda sucks
Amazing, such a talented guy and his crew. 💙

hard to get a table. No reservations. food is amazing
the dude is great..
the food looks amazing..
Stand tall my brother!!
I need this in my life..
Officially on my list for my next visit! Yum!
"Taking South Carolina by storm" is a title that aged like milk. 🤣
Way to go BA !!!
the guy at the end with the stache 😍😍
I definitly know where I‘m going when I visit the US
Love the On the Line series 🔪
I live in Charleston the food scene here is amazing. If your food & service isn’t top tier you won’t last. I can confirm & recommend Chubby Fish in y’all are in the 843
You can tell he loves his job
How much y’all wanna bet those were his parents filming him being filmed in the end? Such a proud moment.
😊❤❤❤
This place is amazing

Incredible
This is great!
Great stuff.. need to check out if I’m ever in SC
Yes, please.
Ooof on the title.
Amazing!

i thought i was watching phone reviews. Very familliar voice :))
Awesome going there this week
Great vid…
Cool restaurant
Really love this video
Nice food, flounders are tastey!
It was aight
Love your content 😊😊😊
Been to a couple of places around the planet that you can have the restaurant cook what you catch on their pier. 💪🏼
Best seafood I've had was on Boracay, Philippines, You walked around the fish market, choose whatever you wanted, then you went to the food stalls and they'd cook what you brought with whatever fresh produce they had that day, Amazing stuff.
@@Giggityzone think 🤔 we seen Anthony Bourdain or Andrew Zimmer there once before on their shows.
Amazing💕
Reminds me of the show called The Bear how they change the menu everyday
My friend that eat shrimp swear on the American shrimp are way better than over seas
He reminds me of Mac Miller the great legend before he passed
The rapper?
@@badfoody lol of course idk if you ever seen him with his beard.
RIP to Mac
Superb the menu has natural element there is also the surprise element ! I m guessing they will have more waste given customers might be conservative!
❤❤❤
just moved to charleston this month

@@mediocreaaliasa501 That is a fair argument but I still have to agree with george who quoted " a little ginger scallion sauce" and it was indeed smothered.
Very common way to eat it in Hong Kong cooking. They steam fish and put ginger scallion oil which flavors but doesn't cover up the flavor of the fish.
@@mediocreaaliasa501very well said, you know your stuff.
Tudor Pelagos 39 for those in the know
I just looked it up. Woah. lol
Awesome
🔥🔥🔥🤪
Now I gota try this place 😅 hope it’s better than king bbq which was just featured in North Charleston that place was 2/10 with 0/10 service

Yes, people pay more for better food.
Vewy vewy nice. Vewy nice
What is the name of the new restaurant and when is it expected to open?
Great
when was this filmed?? I thought nc couldn't catch and keep any flounder this year?
Commercials could
Crosby's the best seafood distributor in the area.
Pelagos on the wrist. Smart and thoughtful.
The last meal I had at chubby fish took me to gods house
