Wheelhouse Restaurants, originally uploaded by edkohler.

Factors that correlate with restaurants Carly and I tend to enjoy:

- Chalkboard menus (ex. Sea Salt)

- Local seasonal ingredients (ex. The Craftsman)

- Natural light (ex. Today’s view of the Andes from The Treehouse in Aquas
Calientes, Peru)

- Thought provoking napkins (ex. The Angry Trout in Grand Marais)

- Bar seating (ex. Riverview Wine Bar)

- Co-ed bathrooms (ex. Birchwood Cafe)
