Classic diner food with a hint of upscale. If your looking for the classic breakfast, this is your place. I think they have the best biscuits and gravy in town. They are also known for being open after all the bars close. :-)

Great Thai food. It's a pretty big restaurant with it's own parking lot so it's a good bet that you can get in without a wait. The drinks are strong and the food is great. The art and sculptures in the restaurant are absolutely gorgeous and it creates a wonderful environment to enjoy your meal.

An awesome food coop. They have all kinds of natural food and great hot deli food. It's pretty pricey though so unless you're all about the health food, I would do your more substantial shopping somewhere else.
