The Best Restaurants in Northern Vermont | Eater Montreal
"With its standout food, cocktails and close proximity to downtown Burlington, MLC often gets looped into the city’s guides. But it is, technically, across the river in Winooski in an unassuming store front on Main Street. Its interior is simple, but the food and drinks are not. The restaurant sources produce from their own farm, In the Weeds, in North Hero where they grow vegetables, flowers for garnishes, raise hens for eggs, and tap maple sap. (Some of that gardening will soon be moving to local community gardens in Winooski.) Expect dishes like roasted monkfish in pancetta consommé, bone marrow spaeztle and cabbage, or family-style fried chicken with honey butter. Then there are unique sides like hay grilled carrots with spiced honey and hay ash: Here, the chef burns hay, sifts the ash into a fine powder and lightly sprinkles it over the carrots before plating them, adding a slight mineral-like flavour." - Heather Platt
