It’s easy to see why Durham is quickly becoming one of the
country’s best places to eat. Back in 2008 Bon Appetite magazine called it
America’s Foodiest Small Town and its only gotten better from there. From restaurants that focus on
farm-to-table practices to a wide variety of international options, Durham’s
food scene has something for everyone. And coming up this month there are lots
of fun and unique ways to enjoy the culinary talents of the area’s chef and the
variety of cuisine available in the Bull City:
