Food Scene

Lots of great food options in the area, especially spring-fall. Some of the farther places are definitely worth the trip!

Amazing smoked & cured meats! Only open weekend daytime hours. Best brisket, bacon, pates, sausages & salamis around. Locally foraged mushrooms & seasonal goodies. Delicious tastings and weekly specials. They take pre-orders online, so worth checking out their specials on Instagram ahead of time (@solinksys_meats)
