50 www. ReadMPM. com | www.MountPl easantMagaz i ne. com | www.MountPl easantPodcas t . com With its outdoor cornhole and bar area, indoor restaurant seating and rooftop bar, Islander 71 has a place for families tying up the boat to recharge after a day on the water and families looking for a nice dinner on the island under the sunset. Lorenz added, “We wanted to keep the menu simple. It is exactly what you would want when you go to a local seafood restaurant.” The restaurant features old island recipes that Lorenz gathered from family and friends to highlight Lowcountry seafood. One recipe that Lorenz is especially excited about is the crab dip that was originally created by a family friend, Betty Jane, and has been passed down for decades. Islander 71 aims to create the authentic experience of the Isle of Palms of yesteryear, and Lorenz has a unique idea on how to incorporate this into the decor. As of now, there is only one picture in the entire restaurant. This picture shows Sugar Hill, the fourth resident of the island, at the beach some 50 years ago. As years go by, Lorenz’s vision is to accumulate pictures from locals of themselves or their families in the ‘70s on Isle of Palms. This plan allows Islander 71 to be a place to look back at the original fishermen who put the marina on the map and carry on their legacy in the spirits of generations to come. feature THE BEST AUTO REPAIR SHOP 4YEARS IN A ROW!
