Alice Eats: Fireworks Restaurant

73 Main Street, Brattleboro 802-254-2073 There aren't many James Beard Foundation award-winning chefs in Vermont. Even fewer can count America's Test Kitchen's Chris Kimball as a fan.

Alice Eats: Our House

36 Main Street, Winooski 802-497-1884 I have a big mouth. It's rare that I stay mum on a place just because I'm afraid of one day not getting in.

Alice Eats: Rustico's

21 Essex Way, Essex 802-876-6262 To many folks who grew up in Essex, Foodee's was the equivalent of the Max or the Peach Pit. The pimply pizza crusts were unique and the drink case was one of the best around.

Alice Eats: Sunset Grille & Tap Room

by Alice Levitt Posted on December 14, 2010 at 12:14PM

140 Cottage Club Road, Stowe, 802-253-9281 I am in constant search of good barbecue in Northern Vermont. Sure, the two-hour drive to Curtis' All American Restaurant in Chester is worth it, especially on weekend buffet nights.

Alice Eats: Yummy Chinese Restaurant

88 Heineberg Drive, Colchester, 802-860-2828 When Yummy Chinese Restaurant opened in the former Ming's space in Colchester, I doubt if even the owners thought they'd be getting five-star reviews. Somehow, though the tiny eatery has wound up on the 7 Nights website's highest-rated list.

Alice Eats: Karma Indian Restaurant

334 Cornelia Street, Plattsburgh, NY, 518-561-8301 My earliest memory is eating tandoori chicken back in New York. On Facebook, I list Indian buffets as my religion.

Alice Eats: Archie's Grill

by Alice Levitt Posted on November 23, 2010 at 12:02PM

4109 Shelburne Road, Shelburne, 802-985-4912 There are now plenty of places to get a locally farmed burger. However, most of those restaurants have a certain level of formality and prices to go with it.

Alice Eats: Grand Buffet

by Alice Levitt Posted on November 16, 2010 at 1:09PM

66 Pearl Street, Essex Junction 802-879-9669 It's no secret that we live in a culture of irony. Everyone knows that entertainment has become little more than a wink and a nudge these days.

Alice Eats: Bar Antidote

by Alice Levitt Posted on November 9, 2010 at 11:03AM

35 C Green Street, Vergennes 802-877-2555 The aftershocks of the first Vermont Restaurant Week are still radiating through my dining card. Ever since I received Bar Antidote's Restaurant Week menu back in April, I've been wanting to eat there.

Alice Eats: Rotisserie Restaurant

1355 Williston Road, South Burlington, 802-658-1838 Usually I'm the one telling my co-workers about great restaurant deals. Not this time.
