Whether it’s food, service or atmosphere, she spends about a hundred hours a day making sure the High Cotton experience is fresh, friendly and surprising. It must agree with her, she’s been managing the restaurant since we opened its doors five years ago. Before that, Jill was our manager at Elliott’s on the Square. Jill’s kind of out-of-the-cubicle thinking is getting to be a family tradition. Her husband is chef at another Charleston restaurant, so there’s a lot of shop-talk around their dinner table. Research goes on during vacations, too. The couple like exotic travel – most recently to South Africa – and they’re always jotting down notes about things they like in restaurants and cafés they visit. Even though High Cotton is all about local foods, Jill makes sure good ideas find a home no matter where they’re from. But she’s not all work. Jill came to Charleston from Colorado where she considered herself a big-time skier. Now she’s converted into a big-time boater, and her outdoor-time is often spent cruising the area’s waterways with her husband and two Rhodesian Ridgeback dogs (you gotta see these things!).
