Fall Arrives on the Menu at Lucky Rooster Kitchen

Fall flavors are on the menu at Lucky Rooster Kitchen + Bar in Hilton Head—including seasonal updates on year-round favorites like shrimp and grits.

A few menu highlights:

• Shrimp + Grits with bacon, mushrooms, greens and creole mustard (heartier for fall; was served with corn and bean succotash with tomato vinaigrette in the summer)
• Sustainably sourced tilefish poached in olive oil and served with eggplant, sweet peppers, capers and corn pudding
• Joyce Farms Poussin Rogue with whole-roasted young heritage breed chicken, honey + lavender glaze, dirty farro and spinach
• Pan-Fried Pork Cutlet with colcannon croquette, red cabbage puree and a mustard jus

“Seasonal sourcing is really ingrained in everything we do at Lucky Rooster,” chef Clayton Rollison says. I don’t think it makes us unique, but it’s not a marketing tactic—it’s just a responsible, sustainable approach and it’s great to see more and more restaurants doing the same.”
