The Triangle’s food scene has so much to love, but sometimes we can’t help but crave more.
From beloved sandwiches to fan-favorite onion rings, there are some dishes we can no longer get in the Raleigh area. So, The News & Observer is inviting you to tell us which closed restaurant you miss the most.
We want to hear about your former go-to pizza shop or the burger joint that kept you coming back. You also can share your fond memories of a cozy cafe or an upscale date-night restaurant.
Fill out the nomination form online to tell us which local restaurant you wish would return. You can also email us at ask@newsobserver.com to share your pick and what you loved about this spot.
If it’s too difficult to pick one restaurant that invokes nostalgia, feel free to submit more than one nomination.
The N&O has conducted non-scientific restaurant polls in the past. But instead of having your nominations go head-to-head in a contest, we’re gathering these submissions to create a nostalgic roundup for long-time Triangle residents.
So, keep reminiscing and be on the lookout for when we compile the list of your favorite bygone places to eat.
