Top Chef star serves signature pastry at Sum Bar
Top Chef fans in Greenville got the chance to meet Season 23's runner-up Chef Laurence Louie and taste a bite of the food that represents his Chinese American story. Louie spent time in Greenville during the filming of Season 23 of Top Chef, so it's only fitting that Greenville would be one of his stops on his Southeast tour; for him, it's almost like a reunion. “I love Greenville,” Louie said. I was here for the show, but also, let's come back, let's cook some food.” Louie stopped by Sum Bar on Oct. 31 for a meet-and-greet, where guests could try his beloved Chinese bolo bao, a popular pastry from his Hong Kong-style cafe, Rubato, in Quincy, Massachusetts. The bolo bao is a soft, sweet bread topped with a crackly cookie-like crust. Louie filled his version with a chrysanthemum custard, adding a floral note to the sweet, buttery pastry. The bolo bao reflects Louie's close connection to his Chinese American identity, and while he didn't start cooking until he says he was 27, he's 39 now. Louie says he's learned to lean into what he knows and the experiences that distinguish him. “It's just like honoring a lot of those

Tee it up: Anderson native to be director of golf at Kawonu Club
When the new Kawonu Golf Club opens next spring, Director of Golf and Operations Eric Williamson will be close to home, professionally and personally. The club and its golf course, designed by rising star architect Andrew Green, sit on 290 acres in southern Greenville County beside the Reedy River. Founding Partners Scott Ferrell and Barton Tuck have overseen the Club’s journey from concept to construction to preparation for its debut. The land has been carefully sculpted, the fairways and greens fully grassed. The turf is currently growing in and being conditioned. Ferrell says it was time to bring in someone to run the place, to prepare for the arrival of members ready to tee off at one of the first new courses in the area in decades. Williamson, a native of Anderson, is joining Kawonu from Charlotte Country Club, where he served as Head pro and Director of Golf beginning in 2021. He starts his new position on Jan. 1. “He understands the different needs of local and national members and how to serve both,” said Ferrell. “That experience, along with his leadership and connection to the Upstate, makes him an exceptional fit to help open Kawonu and run it

In a field of 20 golf programs, Georgia reigned supreme, finishing first at 23 under after three rounds and narrowly beating a 22-under Clemson. A big reason for the Bulldogs’ success was Grayson Wood’s season-best 11-under finish, which tied for first with the Tigers’ Hampton Roberts.
