This is a list, under perpetual construction and loosely grouped by location, of restaurants at which I’d readily eat again as of November 2024. Asterisks denote those where I’ve actually done that, which obviously is more likely in places I’ve lived.
The list for the most part omits national chains, ice-cream parlors, sandwich places, ordinary coffee shops, and so on. It depressingly often includes places now closed (and, I expect, places I actually wouldn’t like again). So far, I’ve never deleted any restaurant. Comments or recommendations are welcome, preferably by email.
