Charlotte's best new restaurants of 2013 were ...


... varied, both contemporary and classic, and spanned the globe, from artistically Southern to traditionally Bosnian to creatively and authentically Japanese.

Let's take a tour:



The list (for those unwilling/unable to watch the video): BAKU, Fork, Heritage, Kabab-Je, Euro Grill, Taste of Europe and Nom Nom Burgers.

Disagree? (Of course some of you do!) Comment here with your substitutions, and we'll have a poll.

No Letty's??

I'm not quite sold on BAKU (think it's a little overrated), but you listed some I hadn't even heard of! I'm looking forward to trying Kebab-Je and Fork!, and I'm especially looking forward to 2014 with Lumiere, Stagioni, and the reopening of the Dunhill's restaurant.

Cool video and great choices, I just can't read that fast.

The Pause button is your friend. (If it's disappeared, put your cursor on the middle of the video and it should appear again.)

I've been to Heritage Food & Drink 3 times now. Excellent & totally worth the drive!

Heritage is a true culinary treasure. Superb fresh from the farm and sea cuisine. There is something different in Waxhaw and worth the trip. Well deserved Chef Paul.
