The bill, H. 4023, is a concurrent resolution recognizing and honoring Shorty's Grill, a culinary institution in Loris, South Carolina, for its decades of service to the community. Owned and managed by the Conner family for over forty years, Shorty's Grill has become a beloved gathering spot for locals, offering a menu that features all-day breakfast, lunch, and dinner, including signature items like grits, eggs, and their famous chicken bog. The restaurant, originally named Loris Lunch and Pool Room, was purchased by David "Shorty" Conner and his wife, Betty, in 1979, and has since maintained a loyal customer base, with many patrons visiting multiple times a week.
The resolution expresses the General Assembly's appreciation for Shorty's Grill's contributions to the Town of Loris and highlights the restaurant's unique atmosphere, which includes a game room that has been preserved for nostalgic reasons. The bill concludes with a provision to present a copy of the resolution to the Conner family, further acknowledging their commitment to the community through their longstanding business.
