Best Dining in Chapel Hill
Hi Cowhounders!
2 of my good friends just got married and are living in Chapel Hill. I want to treat them to a great meal, but I don't live in Chapel Hill, so I need your help and suggestions on where to send them! I'm thinking a romantic smaller place with an emphasis on local ingredients.
Thanks!
SEARCHING FOR REMARKABLE COLESLAW
I wholeheartedly second the recommendation for Full Moon BBQ's slaw in Birmingham, AL. It is the best in the South. Hands down.
Midtown Atlanta
Hi,
My boyfriend and I will be spending one night in Atlanta next week. We are looking for a great, preferably Southern-influenced restaurant in Midtown. I won't have a car, and I'll be there on a Monday.
Thanks for your suggestions!
How is Andina in Portland?
I'm always tempted to leave Seattle and head down to portland for great food. In a city a fablous meals, Andina is highly recommended. They have great drinks too, sometimes even live music. The Pisco Sours are the best outside of Peru. They also have small plates and large plates, which is a benefit since it is so hard to make a decision. The ceviche, in particular, is really delicious. In terms of authenticity, I'm not sure that Andina has the kind of food that you would find in Peru, but in my opinion that is a point for them because I had nothing palatable in the six weeks that I was travelling there (could be due to my tiny budget). Be sure to make a reservation because it's a really popular spot.
Paley's Place is also great. It's in a converted house and the food is always fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Great service. Great wine menu. I wouldn't skip it.

Cascadia?
It seems that Place Pigalle is recommended. Anyone been to Cascadia recently? Thanks!
Place Pigalle
Has anyone been to Place Pigalle for dinner recently? There haven't been any posts since 2002. Any thoughts?
