It’s too hot to cook at home, but also too hot to drive too far. New to town so not sure where the good spots/hidden gems are. Where should the family and I go to get dinner tonight in town? No allergies and open to any cuisine type.

Just heard a police helicopter overhead saying to stay indoors and they’re looking for someone. Anyone know what’s up?

My restaurant is hiring for line cooks and we need help ASAP.
