Opera Kitchen

The name refers to the nearby Opera House, but the owners and chefs here are much more likely to be haunting the roadside stands and farmers markets of the area then that performance space. They take great pride in sourcing only the freshest of local produce(and proteins, and turning them into such delightful fare as creamed mushrooms on toast (a breakfast special), wild nettle risotto, and venison burger with beet chutney.  The coffee and small snacks are primo here, too.
