Bull Voyage

Durham locals know that Bar Brunello is the go-to spot for interesting wines, charcuterie, and conversation. Bon Appétit knows this as well -- the preeminent food magazine featured this chill wine bar in its November issue. For a closer look at Bar Brunello, we chatted with Esteban, the sommelier who opened the Main Street wine bar in 2016.

On a cobblestone side street next to The Durham Hotel, you'll find Mike Lee's  pair of Bon Appétit-celebrated restaurants. Tucked away in a basement location, M Sushi serves high quality sushi and an authentic tasting menu. M Kokko, a tiny Korean-inspired restaurant, is best known for its crispy fried chicken sandwich, but it also offers ramen, rice bowls, and wings.  Learn more about the chef behind this dynamic restaurant duo.

Durham continues its streak of being a foodie's Southern paradise. Bon Appétit Magazine recently featured a three-page article on the Bull City and 13 of our many amazing restaurants—many of which are within walking distance from one another.
