Is this restaurant related to Joe's on South Beach, Miami Beach, FL?

yes, I’m convinced that they’re the same origin. Joes seafood in Chicago is now part of Lettuce Entertain You but they were part of joes stone crab of Miami Beach :-)

Perloo. Many cuisines have one pot rice dishes (risotto, paella, jambalaya, etc), and this is my take on the Carolinas version.

No set recipe. I render a few slices of bacon, then throw a diced onion and garlic into the pot to cook in the fat. Add a tin of smoked trout, pieces of salmon and few cups of Carolina Gold rice to the pot for a couple minutes, then add a can of diced tomatoes, a cup or two of peas, four cups of seafood stock, two bay leaves and a teaspoon or two of salt, and simmer, covered, until the rice is tender.
