Finding the best Mac and Cheese in the city — a personal search

I spent three months trying every version of Mac and Cheese I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled hot sauce with genuine knowledge and the generously seasoned result was noticeably superior.

American cuisine is a mosaic of immigrant traditions adapted over generations. The winning restaurant had the right a Fourth of July cookout feel — unpretentious and focused on the food. root beer was suggested correctly. Worth the search. When Mac and Cheese is made properly it's a completely different experience.
