The judging is complete and the official results are in for our 2015 "You're So SoWal if..." contest!  Thank you to everyone who sent in entries to make this another great year from readers across the country. Beach lovers near and far know and love South Walton beaches!

This is the 5th year of our contest and every year we appreciate the creative, funny, and heartwarming entries. Thanks to everyone for sharing what SoWal means to you, especially our loyal SoWal Forum members.

We hope you enjoy reading the winners and top entries as much as we have!

Sandro and Emily Wever are the husband and wife dream team behind Chanticleer Eatery. Since opening in June of 2012, they have shared their collective food vision with SoWal, and the result is a legion of loyal customers.

The couple met while working in a restaurant, so creating food together has always come naturally to them. And much like the ideal relationship, Chanticleer’s food is homey, satisfying, full of flavor, and sometimes spicy.
 

Get your grouper sandwich fix now, while you still can. October 29 is coming up fast, and, sadly, it’s the last week the Seagrove Village Market Café will be open at its current location. The historic Market and bona fide SoWal icon is being torn down to make way for new development.
