"Chefs Janine Booth of Top Chef fame and three-time James Beard nominee Jeff McInnis each have their own story about how they ended up in Indianapolis. Everyone should just be glad they came together at Root & Bone to serve up amazing fried chicken, brined in sweet tea before being fried to perfection, in the heart of SoBro. Open for brunch and dinner, the restaurant also serves lots of comfort food like biscuits, ribs, deviled eggs, grilled broccolini, mac and cheese, and sweet potato hash." - Mike Gillis
