Happy Summer from your littleSpoon!

Admittedly.. it’s been a hot minute since our last post… We have had a lot going on! Thank you to everyone that has supported our littleSpoon over the last year and we are grateful for your continued support. 🙂

The new addition to our family has kept us all busy and we hope that everyone one of you visit our newest concept, COMIDA in Plaza Midwood soon! littleSpoon’s little sister boasts Modern Mexican cuisine and like Spoon & brunch.. it’s not your momma’s Mexican.

For those of you that love us as much as #littleSpoonluvsu, you know that our new Executive Chef has taken the kitchen by storm! Ryan Allen has now been a part of the littleSpoon family since December and has spent the last six months building a team of talented cooks to shake up the menu and continue to push the bites in #boozebitesbeats keeping your lunch and brunch fun and funky.  The next time you’re in, pop your head at the kitchen window and give a nod to our WuTang clad chef. 🙂

In honor of Charlotte’s patio perfect nights we are introducing our ‘Summer Dining Series’ presented every Thursday night through August. In lieu of TK, we have 12 Special Events planned to keep your Thursday evenings interesting and fun throughout the summer.

We kick off the series on Thursday, June 9th  at 7pm with Fish Camp 2.0!  Chef Ryan and his team are offering a redux on Fish Camp Faves. The series continues through August with everything from casual BBQ dinners to a delicious Champagne dinner, and everything in between.  Celebrate LS’ 2nd Birthday with a Korean Dinner on July 21st with the dining series ending on August 25the with a “Dirty Thirty” dinner presented by LS’s very own GM, Steve Roth & Friends celebrating Chef Ryan’s  30th Birthday.

We all know that littleSpoon is the perfect place to kick it for brunch- but you really should see the way it glows at night! in addition to our Summer Dining Series, keep us in mind for private events. 😉

(yes.. we said private events.. your chance to have littleSpoon all to your yourself.. you and your motley crew that is..) 

littleSpoon is also happy to share that we are  launching our box lunch and outside catering menus.  Your opportunity to bring the littleSpoon love in to your home or office.

Additional information is available on our Website, MailingList, @littleSpoonEatery and on Facebook. For private events email Steve directly at [email protected] or give us a call at 704.496.9908.

Happy Summer!!!

Best Dishes,

The Team@littleSpoon

Dear Vodka.

A little snack time nod to my dear friend Vodka.

A shocking trend is occurring across the country. Vodka bottles are being banished off shelves and forced to live lonely lives in dusty storerooms and steak houses across the country. Long gone are the days of colorful Absolute advertisements, Cosmopolitans and the race for the purest, cleanest and most distilled spirit.

In the era of handle bar moustaches = mixologist, vodka, my friend, has been sidelined. So I give you a small collection of cocktails that bring me back to when vodka was king. The 90’s.

Jane’s Daily. Vodka/Lemon Shrub/Earl Grey Simple Syrup

Lucy’s Lunch. Vodka/Celery/Tomatillo/Jalapeno/Basil/White Balsamic

Hydration. Vodka/Vivreau Water/ LemonGrass
