Recommendations

If you haven’t yet, this is the perfect time to try Assagio (best true Italian style pasta in town in my book), Luc (get the burger if it’s offered), emmer & rye (love their spicy Bolognese) or one of the many participating newcomers. 

The list of participating restaurants is drool inducing. I’m hoping to finally try out Staple & Fancy Mercantile and RN74.  When I do, I’ll post my reviews here. 

Which participating restaurants do you want to try out? And which do you recommend to others?
