I've been saying this same thing - we need more destination restaurants in the North Side. I'm hoping it starts with Arde.

I would love it if La Gourmandine (that amazing French bakery in Lawrenceville) opened a location here. I know they are only a few miles away but as long as I'm wishing, I pick that. I would also LOVE an upscale, Southern cuisine restaurant in our neig hborhood. One of my favorites is a place in Seattle called The Kingfish Cafe. I miss it terribly and think it would do really well here, giant posters of Langston Hughes and family members from the 30's included. http://thekingfishcafe.com
