College towns are amazing places.
Not only are they the home of countless parties, but more importantly they are the hot bed of restaurant innovation. Think ab

out it - every college town in the world has "that" restaurant. The place that every student adores and every adult who moved away wishes they could still visit. "That" restaurant serves unusual food, has remarkable service and delivers an experience you can't find anywhere else."That" restaurant is a diamond in the rough and if the walls could talk they would tell stories that no one every dreamed of.
Usually "that" restaurant has little to no atmosphere. Simply said, they are a hole in the wall. A small place that people jam into and line outside of to get a taste of something spectacular.
I don't know every one of "those" restaurants in every college town, but I wish I did (please share if you know a few). However, a recent trip to the University of Virginia in Charlottesville brought me face to face with two of "those" restaurants that were some of the most revolutionary I have ever been to.
They pushed things to the edge and took risks that no other restaurant would. The service was friendly, prompt and authentic. The food touched my soul.
It's likely that some of you may never go to these restaurants or have ever heard of them. However, I feel that I owe it to you to tell you their legend and share my experience with you.
The next two days on the blog will be dedicated to the University of Virginia and the mind altering restaurants that surround it.
