The Local
Housemade potato and cauliflower perogies from The Local. |
Built on the concept of buying local product for the health of both its diners and its planet, The Local (239-596-3276) uses a lot of organic ingredients and devotes sections to gluten-free, vegetarian and even vegan diets. Non-carnivores can choose from a full array of refreshingly delightful salads, red lentil soup, quinoa with sweet corn and cucumbers, a veggie flatbread, a veggie sandwich with avocado, baba ghanoush, “kung pao” avocado with bell pepper and cashews, The Local Farm Plate, and seasonal vegetables with house-made fettuccini and oyster mushrooms, plus various well-prepared seafood dishes, such as Pine Island clams with capellini.
