Xiao Boa Biscuit, Spring St., Charleston, S.C. |
When Eater asked foodies to describe 2012 food scene in Charleston in one word, the word Asian came up a couple of times. This restored gas station at Rutledge and Spring St. might be part of the reason for that. This is the mural on the Xiao Boa Biscuit

I have a "before" picture of the gas station but I went out for a bite to eat to celebrate my Friday and had two glasses of wine and I can't find it anywhere. Ooops. Here it is in the current but still rustic condition.
A somewhat different mural!
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous piece of art - glad you captured it on film before someone paints over it! And that retro turquoise color is one of my all-time faves. I love the idea of repurposing an old gas station without changing the architecture. Excellent.
