Breakfast of Jockeys

Near the racetrack, the breakfast-only Race Track Kitchen, 20 Mead Ave. (tel. 803/641-9628), is where the jockeys go to eat between sets. If you want racing tips, this is the place to hear them. It's just a hole in the wall, but we love its down-home atmosphere. The food is basic breakfast fare -- ham and eggs, grits -- costing $4 to $6. Hours are daily from 6am to 1pm.
