Food scene

My favorites: pork belly buns, Pho (the owner is Vietnamese), Spring rolls, green beans, and my husband likes the lemongrass chicken. Brunch is always fantastic!

This is literally the only Chinese restaurant I order from in Chapel Hill. My favorites: Chicken Pad Thai, crab Rangoon, Fried Mandarin Fish, and scallion pancake. Don’t forget to ask for their “authentic” dish menu.

Not located in Chapel Hill but Carr Mill has some of the best shops and restaurants. The kids LOVE Ali Cat Toys and we love to walk by the “good smelly” shop and admire the beautiful historic building.
