Hey, I'm kind of a foodie... It's hard to find food better than I can make in this area of the world... but there are some great places in town! Below are the ones that I would recommend! :)
Fresh, giant salads! The "Cafe Sol" salad has banana bread croutons! Delish! With a bunch of goat cheese! That sweet and salty combination is great! Nick (the owner and head chef) makes all of his own salad dressing and he uses local ingredients as much as possible! They recently started serving breakfast... it's delish!

So, it's not as close as some of my other recommendations, but it's worth the drive. Try their curry dishes! We traveled for a month in Thailand several years ago and this is the closest we've found in town to authentic Thai food!

Yes, it's a little out of the way and you'll wonder where I've sent you. But, definitely worth the drive! Try the lamb masala. Careful with the spice if you're sensitive! It gets hot fast! And the tandoori chicken is AMAZING! Check hours of operations before going. They are closed Tuesdays and are closed from 2:30pm-5pm daily.
