1. It's Always Packed:
These "hidden gem" local spots are always bumpin' with (usually) blue-collar workers.
2. They Offer a Limited Menu:
Most places with small menus offer dishes that have been perfected, rather than attempting to make something for everyone.
3. Locals Always Recommend It:
If you hear a lot of locals recommending the same place, it's probably incredible. Trust their judgment.
Remember, some of the best places are small businesses that can't afford to compete with corporations' giant marketing budgets.
These are the places where we should be supporting.
