The Post and Courier revisits Xiao Bao Biscuit at 224 Rutledge Ave., the Asian restaurant that opened in a converted 1940s gas station in 2012 and helped pull Cannonborough into Charleston's dining conversation. Owners Josh Walker, Duolan Walker-Li and Joey Ryan still run it, with no reservations and no substitutions.
Why this matters here
Fourteen years in one building, still full, still refusing to take a booking. Every owner wondering whether a neighborhood corner can carry a business for a decade has an answer sitting at Spring and Rutledge.
