North Carolina native, award-winning chef, and New York Times best-selling author Vivian Howard will introduce her latest culinary concept, Theodosia, at The Sanderling Resort, slated to open Memorial Day weekend. Every element of this new dining destination will reflect the culture and history of the Outer Banks, creating a connection to a distinctive place and time.Named for Theodosia Burr—daughter of the infamous Aaron Burr, wife of South Carolina Governor Joseph Alston, and the subject of centuries-old folklore about a ship lost at sea near the Outer Banks—Theodosia will evoke mystery and intrigue. The waterfront setting invites guests to ponder her fate as she journeyed from SC to NY in the early 19th century.The dining room will feature rich, feminine textures, soft lighting, and views of the Currituck Sound’s endless horizon. The menu will celebrate the region’s salt marshes and fishing heritage, blending tradition with Howard’s signature innovative Southern cuisine.
