Escaping The Rain Deliciously
When April showers--or the kind we get throughout the rest of the year--may come your way, going out to eat gets complicated. But not for the person armed with NOMenu's List of Restaurants Accessible Without Going Outside Into The Rain. All of the following restaurants have accommodations for pulling your car under cover, right up to the door. That allows not only the passengers but also the driver to walk in without getting a drop on any of them. They are ranked in order of desirability of the food.
