Well known 'good' restaurants include: The Tack Room (4 star continental) Janos (innovative southwestern cuisine with stunning atmosphere) some other place at Campbell & Skyline (I don't remember its name but it has a great view; the cuisine was continental)

Other places to try (less expensive): Penelope's (french), Scordato's (italian) Sweetwater Cafe (southwestern/continental)

Fun places to eat (least expensive): Cafe Magritte (good for nighttime downtown type activity), Coffee Etc., Blue Willow

Oh My God, He's got a cane!
-radio statement of two police officers assaulting a blind man.  They thought his collapsible cane was an illegal martial arts weapon.  One of the officers was injured after the blind man, thinking he was being mugged, fought back.

Dear Josephine:

I'd recommend Janos, a Southwest restaurant owned by chef Janos Wilder and his wife Rebecca, which opened on Halloween in 1983!

Bon Appetit!
