Erin Perkins is the editor of Eater Carolinas, covering the food and restaurant scene across North and South Carolina.

From "remarkably orderly mussels" to "fairly cheffy mussels," Charleston Scene critic Hanna Raskin samples a range of bivalves at downtown establishments and gives her opinions and facts along the way (Did you know orange meat mussels were female?).

On her sample list are Charleston restaurants Blossom, Rue de Jean, Amen Street, Fish, Closed for Business, and Pearlz. While every diner may have their favorite mussel menu, Raskin might suggest a new bowl of bivalves for you to try.
