30/09/13 Hen of the Wood
We came up to Vermont and couldn’t wait to share this place with friends. As fellow foodies, we knew Hen of the Wood won’t disappoint them. The summertime is so lovely here. When we arrive, our table is not ready, so we are shown out to the back patio. There are a couple of tables […]

27/09/13 Dumpling Cafe
Met up with an old co worker one day after work. I joke with her that she is more Asian than I am, since she knows all the best places to go for Asian cuisine. While I was standing across the street waiting for her to show up, a family walks up to me and […]

26/09/13 Crop Bistro
The Crop is the space that used to be The Shed – boy do I miss that place. We’ve been here before, and the service was painfully slow. When we arrive, there is no one at the host stand and we decide that judging by the amount of people in the main dining room, we […]

23/09/13 Douzo
Every time I come here, we struggle with the service – mainly the hostess. Most recently, we arrive for a late lunch, with a reservation. We are 15 minutes early, but they say that they can’t seat us. As we look around and see half a dozen open tables, it just doesn’t make any sense. […]
