Feeling the Love at Craigie Street This Week

We don't want to break any arms patting ourselves on the back but this can only be called a very good week for Craigie Street Bistrot.

First, we opened our new issue of Food & Wine Magazine to learn that we topped their annual 2oo8 "Go List", their definitive guide for food-obsessed travelers. We beamed.

Next, we learned that Food & Wine also named "10 Best Restaurants in the World for Carnivores." There was only one US restaurant on the list and it was us, Craigie Street Bistrot. NPR broadcast the story too. We high-fived.

(Non-carnivores, please note - we are especially proud that this joins previous awards for "Best Vegetarian Dining", and "Best Fish of the Day." )

In case you think any of this is easy, you'll want to read another writeup: this one in the Phoenix by Kenji Alt, about the hours and days that Chef Tony Maws puts into making our Venison Sausage. It captured our chef's hard work and perfectionism so beautifully that at least one of us (his Mom) cried. http://thephoenix.com/article_ektid59552.aspx
