Nana Inducted Into Nation’s Restaurant News’ Fine Dining Hall Of Fame

Speaking of in boxes, Nancy, I got this one yesterday: Nana has been inducted into the 2009 Fine Dining Hall of Fame by Nation’s Restaurant News. You know, I went to Nana–back when it was Nana Grill–for prom night, forever cementing it in my mind as the go-to special occasion restaurant in Dallas. I fell in love with it all over again at a semi-recent media dinner.

The other 2009 honorees are Barolo Grill in Denver; Blue Ginger in Boston; Bouley in New York; Herbsaint in New Orleans; Naha in Chicago; Michael Mina in Las Vegas; Michael’s on East in Sarasota, Fla; New Rivers in Providence, R.I.; and Slanted Door in San Francisco.  Alice Waters of Chez Panisse in Berkeley received “Fine Dining Legend.”
