The platter is made complete with a deviled crab cake and an array of sides that sing of the South.
The Breakfast Nook – Start your Engines
The Full Throttle Breakfast Plate doesn’t mess around. It’s the fuel you need to kick-start your day: two eggs (your way), crispy hash browns and a hamburger steak smothered in grilled onions. It’s a traditional breakfast with a robust twist, ensuring you’re more than ready to face the day.
Santee Pitt – A Sweet and Savory Duo
No trip would be complete without indulging in the classic combo of Chicken and Waffles. It’s a dish that straddles the line between sweet and savory, with crispy, juicy chicken paired with fluffy, syrup-drenched waffles – a culinary metaphor for Santee’s charming duality.
