Food Scene
One of my all time favorite restaurants in the world. The owner, Amanda, is a wonderful host, and their wine list is fantastic. I recommend the burrata and white pizza.

Long standing favorite sandwich shop. I recommend the "Sand piper" and "vegetarian sandwich," and my sister swears it's the best burger in TC. Fast-casual, worth every penny. The salad bar is great too! Open until 15:00.
