A FEW OPENINGS shone from the gloom of a devastating 2020 for Charlotte’s restaurant scene. Here’s how to sample the best of the bunch in a single decadent day:
BREAKFAST
It’s a marathon, not a sprint, so let’s begin by carbing up at Easy Like Sunday (1600 E. Woodlawn Rd., Ste. 100). This relative newcomer to the Park Road area specializes in breakfast and brunch. If the fried chicken and cornmeal pancakes are a bit too heavy, go for another specialty: shrimp and grits, with Cajun shrimp, Portuguese sausage, onions, shallots, and chives, served over cheddar grits.
LUNCH
