Alice Eats: 5000 Ans

by Alice Levitt Posted on August 17, 2010 at 1:46PM

2176 rue St-Catherine, Montréal, QC, 514-932-7565It's not an exaggeration to say Korean barbecue is my favorite thing in the world. I have been absolutely obsessive about the grill-it-yourself meat meal since I was a small child.

Alice Eats: Charlie's Rotisserie and Grill

1160 Williston Road, South Burlington 802-862-1211We all know the story — friends who have known each other for a decade suddenly realize it's love. While I've always enjoyed what I've had with Charlie's (still known as Chicken Charlie's to most of us), we recently took it to the next level.

Alice Eats: Tokyo House

by Alice Levitt Posted on August 3, 2010 at 12:37PM

106 West Street, Rutland, 802-786-8080I've written a fair amount about the rich history of ethnic food in Rutland: The city has had a Chinese restaurant for more than 70 years, and Vermont's first pizza was served in Rutland in 1949. Last weekend's Ethnic Food Festival included dishes with roots in the Republic of the Congo and Korea — rare commodities in the Green Mountains, even in this day and age.I couldn't make it to the festivities, but after an awesome afternoon at Wilson Castle in Proctor, I figured a good meal in nearby Rutland would be the icing on the cake.

Alice Eats: The Weekend

by Alice Levitt Posted on July 27, 2010 at 1:54PM

Sorry, there's no hot new restaurant so exclusive that it only serves on Saturday and Sunday. The past few days have simply been so food-filled, I thought it would be fun to share how one food writer's life goes when the living is easy and the produce is high.

Alice Eats: Shelburne Steakhouse & Saloon

by Alice Levitt Posted on July 20, 2010 at 12:42PM

2545 Shelburne Road, Shelburne 802-985-5009 Two weeks after opening, 7 Nights reviewers have written six reviews of Shelburne Steakhouse. The diners were all eager for a return to Sirloin Saloon form in the space previously occupied by the lost classic.

Alice Eats: The Bee's Knees

by Alice Levitt Posted on July 13, 2010 at 11:50AM

82 Lower Main Street, Morrisville 888-7889 Ask anyone where to find good food in Morrisville and they will tell you The Bee's Knees is the place. When I spent this past Sunday in Hyde Park, I did consider heading to the Stonegrill Restaurant & Pub, (You cook your meat yourself!

Alice Eats: QTee's

by Alice Levitt Posted on July 6, 2010 at 2:11PM

237 North Winooski Avenue, Burlington 658-3668I didn't think I'd have to do this, but apparently I do: There are people out there who still don't know about QTee's. Whenever I explain where 99 Asian Market is — right across the street from QTee's — it seems people don't know what I'm talking about.

Alice Eats: Jackson's on the River

by Alice Levitt Posted on July 2, 2010 at 2:46PM

7 Bakery Lane, Middlebury, 388-4182 I dig controversy. As soon as it was added to 7 Nights, Jackson's caused a minor stir with three comments in the space of about an hour.

Another weekend, another Vermont food and wine fest

by Suzanne Podhaizer Posted on June 30, 2010 at 9:20AM

The past couple of weeks have been good to local oenophiles. Last weekend saw the inaugural Burlington Wine & Food Festival — put on by the Vermont Wine Merchants Company — replace the defunct Green Mountain Chew Chew Festival in a plum spot on the waterfront.

Alice Eats: Sumo Ramen

1007 boulevard St-Laurent, Montréal, Québec 514-940-3668 Think "ramen" means dehydrated bachelor food? Try experiencing the real deal at one of the new ramen restaurants north of the Canadian border.Just a few months after Ramen-ya opened in Montréal's Chinatown, Sumo Ramen followed.
