 One very nice place is the Inn at Shelburne Farms.  Wonderful food and a
 great view of the lake.  Cafe Shelburne is also nice (wonderful French
 cuisine).  In Burlington itself, the Deja Vu Cafe is good (nice building,
 with crepes and more).  For informal eating in Burlington, I like the
 Vermont Pub and Brewery.  Good food and great beer.  For Chinese, the Panda
 Inn, for Japanese, Sakura.  For Cajun, the Bourbon Street Grill.

 A little East of Burlington is Butler's at the Inn at Essex.  Run by the
 New England Culinary Institute.  The Birch Tree Cafe is a less formal
 restaurant next to it, run by the same group.

 South of Burlington, I'm partial to Mary's at Baldwin Creek located in Bristol.
 Always some very tempting dishes (ask Doug if he's finished his cookbook yet).
 Further south in Middlebury is the Swift House Inn, excellent food and
 beautiful gardens (though maybe not at this time of year :-)

 It's not the most romantic place to go, but in my opnion  the best fish and
 chips I've ever had. It's called the Vermont Pub and Brewery which is located
 right downtown Burlingtion. They also make their own beer which is also very
 good, if your a beer drinker that is. It's off of Church St. I believe.
