I'm Chrissie, and I started Off the Eaten Path six months after I moved to Charlotte, North Carolina because I wanted to get out and explore my new city. What’s a better way to explore a city through its local food and drink right?

With the addition of easy entertaining recipes, and North Carolina travel guides, eleven years later, you’ll still find me eating and drinking my way through Charlotte (and annoying my husband by taking pictures of his food before he gets to dig in).
