If you like Southern Style Cuisine, this is the place to be: "Dixie's on Grand". This restaurant seems very popular, so making reservations in advance like we did might be a good idea.
I chose to go for one of their House-Smoked Specialties, in this case the BBQ Chicken. It is served with a delicious BBQ sauce, cole slaw, skin-on-fries and fresh corn on the cob, all for $13.99. Served with a glass of white wine it was perfect for the evening. The chicken was grilled to perfection and the corn on the cob was probably one of the best I ever had. Together with the friendly service, this restaurant deserved the thumbs-up. I would without hesitation make reservations here again for dinner, as there was a lot I would like to have tried from their menu list, including the delicious sounding Key Lime Pie, which I unfortunately didn't have room for after the main course. Maybe next time I should start off with dessert instead ;-)

After having walked around a bit in the downtown area we decided it was time for lunch. And as we seemed to end up at the Landmark Center all the time, it is not surprising we ended up at "Great Waters Brewing Co", which is located almost across the street.
The place looked nice on the outside, so we decided to give it a try. The welcome wasn't what you call 'enthusiastic', the waiter was rather rude, but as we were tired and already sitting down, we decided to stay anyway. We both opted for the Great Water's Club; fresh ciabatta bread filled with Turkey, bacon, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and garlic aioli. And surprise, surprise, it tasted great! The sandwiches are served with fries, onion rings, potato salad or coleslaw for a total of 7,50 USD. Not that you really need any of these side dishes, as the sandwiches are quite generous, and more then I could eat.
As we were in a brew pub, we of course had to try one of their specialty beers. We tried the "Brown Trout Brown Ale", a full bodied rich brown ale, and again, it tasted great! So the conclusion would be, if you don't get the same grumpy waiter as we did, you probably will enjoy your lunch at Great Waters Brewing Co a lot.
I wish we could rate the satisfaction in several different categories on VT. If so the food would deserve a 4 (out of 5), the beer a 5 and the service a 1 (zero really, hahaha, or even minus if it was up to me).

Monday to Saturday: 11:00 a.m. 2:00 a.m.

I discovered this place many years ago, before it was a popular place to have breakfast after church. It was started by recovering users (hence the name, Day By Day) and many of the people they hire are those who are recovering from chemical dependancy.
The service is excellent and the quality of food is also excellent. I love this place and it's ambiance.

This is conciderably more elegant than those mentioned above. A romantic cozy environment and great food.
Many, many years ago this building was a drug store where F. Scott Fitzgerald used to buy cigars for his father. The building is on the Federal Registry of Landmarks.
A great place to bring a date. Leave a Comment

When it comes to sweets, Cafe Latté is the place to go. They have a great selection of desserts! Cafe Latté is actually a cafeteria-style restaurant. So if you have the appetite for some light dinner, they offer tasty soup, salads and sandwiches.
Cafe Latté's famous German chocolate cake is to die for! Leave a Comment

The restaurant in St. Paul is the original Green Mill location with a history that goes back to the mid 1930s.
If you are looking for a laid diner or somewhere to celebrate a little after a hard-working day, then don't miss Green Mill's Happy Hour! You can get most of the appetizers for half price!
Pasta Pavarotti - (Penne noodles, seasoned chicken, prosciutto, mushrooms, zucchini and sun-dried tomatoes in a garlic cream sauce) - Just yummy!

Caribou is great. They all have the feel of a wintery log cabin. This is the 2nd largest specialty coffee chain in the USA - with over 160 stores nationwide (mostly in Midwest).
The Cool Lite White Berry - is the BEST drink in the world... but some Caribous don't know what you are talking about when you ask for one, and they'll try to make it up and give you something bad. On a cold day, the Carmel Hi Rise is something to die for!
