Columbia Insider Nancy Eugenio Silver
Welcomes You To Columbia

Columbia, Columbia insider, Nancy Silver

Hello all you food and beverage fans! My name is Nancy Eugenio Silver and Im your Columbia insider. Im originally from Ludlow, MA but am now a fully inducted Columbian.

My husband and his family come from a long line of restaurant suppliers. Through them I have met many great chefs and restaurant owners. I have also been introduced to a variety of exotic and interesting foods that I would never have even considered trying before. Ever eaten alligator? How about frog? It really does taste like chicken but its hard to get over the appearance of it.

If youve gotten this far then youve already read my intro to the city. So why arent you here already? Oh, I know, youre looking for a restaurant/bar/festival to go to. Ok, I can help you out. Just keep reading to find "out of this world" cuisine. You will want to take these chefs home with you! Ill even tell you the places to avoid, whether its too expensive, bad wait staff, dirty, or the food is just plain bad. So what are you waiting for - enjoy!
