On The Menu is an exciting weekly, one-hour program whose subject is food, wine, travel & lifestyle; it is heard each week on PBS radio across the country. Ann & Peter Haigh host the show and interview chefs, restaurateurs, hoteliers, authors, winemakers, food producers, and other culinary luminaries. They also discuss food trends, new products, where to go, how to get there and special events worth noting.

Ann & Peter Haigh were in Charleston for the BB&T Charleston Food+Wine Festival where they caught up with Mitchell Crosby of JMC Charleston. Mitchell Crosby and Denise Barto have co-produced the Festival since its inception four years ago. Mitchell told them about this year’s themes and concepts. He said the committee continues to increase the quality of the events and will slowly grow the festival so that it can be enjoyed by everyone—local as well as people from ‘off’.

“We were very lucky” said Crosby, “as most of the events were sold out before the end of 2008. And we like to think that is because of the quality of Chefs, Wineries, and culinary luminaries who are participating in this year’s Festival.” All of the programs have been very well received—the Dine Arounds, Dinner in Private Homes, the Gospel Brunch, Blues Brews & BBQ, Bubbles & Sweets.

Ann then ask Mitchell about his Destination Management company, JMC Charleston. He said that he entertains his corporate and incentive groups the way Charlestonian’s have entertained for years, with style and innate sensibility, educating them to the beauty of the Low country. And then he had to hurry to the next event to make sure that all was well and that everyone was enjoying the day.
