Turns out, Durham has more good stuff coming out of the kitchen than anyplace else in the South...and that's saying something!
For those who do not know, Durham, NC was named to Southern Living Magazine's list of The Top Ten Tastiest Towns in the South in January. It made the grade over places like New Orleans, Charleston, and Miami. Durham earned the top spot being named The Tastiest Town in the South by the magazine at an April 9th press conference. The story appears in the magazine that hits newsstands today, April 19th.
So then how is this information useful to the consumer, the diner, the resident, and the visitor?
