The Best of Times Cafe is on the east side of San Benito Street, between 6th and 7th Streets. It opened in 1996 as the Hard Times Cafe. The owner changed it in 1999 because a chili restaurant franchise on the east coast has a trademark on the name. Want to know more?

The cafe recently received second place in the Best Diner category of The 2010 Pinnacle Awards. For customer reviews, check out Yelp. I'm not a minestrone fan, but at Best of Times Cafe, I'll order it!.
I am all for eating locally - I love to shop at the farmers' markets in town...but will have to wait till next spring to do so again.
ReplyDeleteSame here, Helen. Our farmers market runs from May to September. Fortunately, there are a couple of farm stands that sell locally-ground organic productions throughout the year.
