The Daisy Cafe

Aside from a couple of goof-ups with my husband's calzone, the food was decent, service was fantastic. Best of all--just fabulous to-go containers...molded paper clamshells! The paper is probably bleached, but it's a good alternative to styrofoam.

Bob's Burgers & Brew

Bob's is an institution in these parts. I can't say I've been to every one of the Bob's in the area, but the other day I had my lunch at one of the restaurants and just happened to notice a stack of styrofoam carry-out containers behind the bar. *sigh*

Luckily, I didn't need a container. I made the decision to practice yet another conservation tool--smaller portions (a.k.a. "waste not, want not"). However, I have to admit that my reasons for eating smaller portions was not to avoid wasting food--it was because I have become a bit heavier than I'd like to be. I see a lot of smaller portions in my future...

Fiamma!

I can't start off with just a negative entry. Here's a couple of my favorites...both locally owned and operated. I can't say enough about these places, but don't want to spend a lot of time doing that here. Check out the websites for more information. Both use biodegradable packaging.
