What locals are saying
Vivian Howard's grab-and-go outpost tucked into the lobby of the Lindy Renaissance Hotel earns its keep on the strength of its stuffed biscuits — the ham-and-apple-preserve and pimento-cheese-egg combinations hit notes that skeptics don't see coming. The hand pies are trickier: arrive in the afternoon and you may find a near-empty case, a shrug from the counter, and a $7 price point that's hard to justify for something that's been sitting. Best treated as a serious morning stop, not a lunch destination.
