The Veggie Wrappers Delight at Mattie B’s – apart from having the best name ever – is so scrumptious with its goat cheese and balsamic vinaigrette. And we upgraded our side of housemade chips to the south Durham restaurant’s signature South of the Border chips!
Another Sunday, another Avocado the Kid bagel and Bloody Mary at Monuts for Executive Editor Amanda MacLaren.
