Béarnaise and Fries at the Glass Onion

If you're visiting Charleston, South Carolina, be sure to go to the Glass Onion, an outstanding restaurant serving Lowcountry and New Orleans–style food. Before you even order your drinks, get a basket of the french fries with béarnaise sauce. The twice-fried potatoes are so perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside that they'd be stars all by themselves, but the creamy, tarragon-rich béarnaise is the best dip imaginable for french-fried potatoes. —Rachel Levkowicz, Charleston, South Carolina
