GET TO KNOW MICHAEL
What is your favorite restaurant in Charleston and why?
Coda Del Pesce on Isle of Palms is by far my favorite. It offers house-made pasta, local seasonal ingredients and beautiful ocean views.
What are your favorite features of homes and why?
My favorite features are a chef’s kitchen, a scullery/butler’s pantry and marsh views. The kitchen is the heart of the home and offers a perfect space for cooking and entertaining, while a scullery/butler’s pantry provides extra storage and keeps the kitchen organized. Marsh views add a tranquil, natural element to the home, making it a peaceful retreat – especially in the Lowcountry.
Describe a favorite Saturday afternoon in Charleston.
My ideal Saturday includes morning activities with the family, afternoon car projects and spending time in my happy place—the kitchen.
