His response: \u201cThe hush puppies at Sullivan\u2019s Fish Camp \u2026 because a lot of people make a hush puppy, but they don\u2019t get the balance of the cornmeal and the salt all perfect and right. And he does,\u201d Dokoupil said, referring to chef Jason Stanhope.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd also there\u2019s a sweet butter that it comes with. It is my favorite dish \u2026 in a long time,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Dokoupil has been a co-host of \u201cCBS Mornings\u201d since 2019. Earlier this month, the broadcasting veteran was named anchor of the Tiffany Network\u2019s nightly newscast. He’ll replace John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois at the news desk starting Jan. 5.<\/p>\n
Dokoupil didn\u2019t say when he dined at Sullivan\u2019s Fish Camp, which opened on Middle Street in 2022. As for the $12 hush puppies he so enjoyed, the restaurant\u2019s appetizer menu describes them as “tots” made from Edisto cornmeal and served with honey butter.<\/p>\n
