Paying careful attention to food, many Worcester restaurants not only have been conscious about fresh ingredients and supporting local sources, but there has also been a flood of foods prepared for the health conscious vegetarian, gluten free and vegan diners. Have a local favorite that’s not on the list? Let us know!
Pizza is a natural choice when choosing to grab dinner simply because of the readily accessible number of pizza parlors in any city. While we’ve mentioned our satisfaction with places like Wonder Bar, Pepe’s, and Blue Jeans Pizza, a newcomer to the area, with an almost cult-like following, is Flats. Their menu offers a diverse selection of salads, sandwiches, and, of course, flatbread pizza “made in traditional Neapolitan style with an old world attention to detail and crazy obsession on local quality ingredients.” As pictured, “The Bomb” consists of melt-in-your-mouth grilled sirloin (worthy to eat without the pizza), large mushrooms, caramelized onions and the combination of cheddar, mozzarella and blue cheeses. Whether you are an environmentalist (pretty much everything is “green”), a health conscious eater (organic and/or vegan options), or simply in the mood to indulge in a slice or box of pizza, Flats could be worth a repeat visit. What makes the small, detailed atmosphere even better? It’s BYOB.
