Scarlett Begonia founder, Crista Fleming, opened her restaurant 13 years ago and the shrimp and grits were one of the original dishes that lasted to present day. Composed with Bob’s Red Mill stone white grits that are finished with cream and Beemster cheese, sautéed shrimp, Papa Cantella’s andouille sausage, caramelized onion, roasted red peppers and a mustard seed chow chow relish finished with two perfectly poached organic eggs finished with olive oil and a handful of arugula. Add another one of the originals, the lemon ricotta pancakes with fresh blueberry compote and pair it with a house organic Bloody Mary or Brander Sauvignon Blanc and you have the perfect bite.
