CHARLESTON — There’s plenty of house-made pasta exiting the kitchen at Allora, a relatively new Italian restaurant at the corner of Rutledge Avenue and Spring Street.
Next door, at the locally-owned market and grab-and-go eatery that debuted in June, patrons can pick up fresh-rolled noodles to cook at home, plus other specialty items to store in their refrigerator and pantry.
Luther’s Market is now open at 227 Rutledge Ave. It’s owned by mother-and-son chefs Kiki and Hudson Luthringshausen, who introduced their globally-inspired comfort food to Charleston through a purple food trailer that roamed the Lowcountry for parts of the last two years.

Now, customers who swing by the small shop can watch Hudson roll fusilli and fettuccine while they shop for take-home dinners, curated condiments, sweets, local meats and beverages. The fresh noodles are packaged and placed beside sauces made in-house, such as one infused with pork and chili crisp and another that puts a spin on classic Bolognese.
In addition to the goods, guests can pick up sandwiches, hearty salads, pastries from Grit Bakery, and egg bakes stuffed with fillings that range from ham and cheese to feta, dill and roasted tomatoes. Storey Farms, Anson Mills, Lowcountry Creamery and Peculiar Pig Farm are among the local purveyors whose products are used inside the shop.
Luther’s Market is open from 11 a.m.-7 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. In the near future, the shop will begin offering private pasta-making courses for groups of four to eight. For more information, visit lutherschs.com.
