This South Carolina Mexican Restaurant Claims To Be The Upstate’s Original Birria Spot

The birria here braises for eight to ten hours before it ever meets a tortilla. That’s a full workday for one pot of beef. I can’t imagine a better reason to cancel lunch plans with anyone else. The slow simmer also creates consommé, a rich broth made for...

Northwest Grill’s burgers make it a roadside gem: City Juice with John Malik

I’m not a fan of labeling any restaurant “the best” at anything because much of what we enjoy in life is contextual. Lunch with friends is a lot more fun than lunch without friends. That’s why I brought Diego Campos (executive chef, Camp) and Jason Janson (Broadwater Shrimp) to Northwest Grill where we had a great meal.

Eagles advance in soccer playoffs with ‘next man up’ mentality

DENVER – Watching Lincoln Charter handle its business in a 3-0 defeat of Brevard in the third round of the 4A soccer state playoffs on Nov. 9, adversity isn’t the word that would come to mind for most. For the casual observer, it would likely come as a shock to find out the Eagles delivered such a performance without the team’s leader in goals and assists.

‘Pigs can fly': How NC Democrats notched victories in red, rural areas | Opinion

Last week, Lynne Russo achieved what many people had told her was impossible: flipping a deep red district in western North Carolina . Russo, a Democrat, won her race in North Carolina House District 117 with more than 50% of the vote, after running a campaign primarily focused on the cost of living and Hurricane Helene recovery. When Russo first decided to run for office, her Henderson County district wasn’t expected to be competitive. A Republican won it by more than 15 points in 2024, and it’s been decades since any Democrat represented the county in Raleigh. Russo said people reminded her of that nearly every day. “People constantly told me this seat is unflippable,” Russo said. “People that I was certain should have given me money or should have believed in my campaign didn’t. It took some inner fortitude to hear that and keep going.” But Russo always believed that if she worked hard enough, she could win. She sold her condo to cover her living expenses so she could run for office full-time, and she estimates she spent around 16 hours a day working on her campaign. She knocked doors, hosted events, held “coffee talks” with constituents, sent
