The Best Things We Ate and Drank in October
Between new restaurant openings, fall farmers' market finds and returns to a few of our old favorites, we found plenty of good eats around the city over the past month. Pumpkin beers, slow-cooked meats and fall squash ushered in cooler weather, but not everything was comfort food. Creative plates at newcomers like Bar Helix, the Bindery, Smok BBQ and Citizen Rail made for a hot, hot October.
