Derick and I love this restaurant. It's next to Greensboro's newest park, Lebaurer Park. It has a quintessentially European feel with dark wood interiors and a gracious patio. The food and service is perfect and the price can't be beat. Wine Wednesdays, steak Thursdays, and the best of all - mussels Tuesday!

Parks & Nature
if you walk downhill on Candlewood from our house, make a right on Mimosa, then look to your left, you'll see a walking bridge to this Greenway. Great running trail, a couple mile walk to downtown, or a fairly easy bike ride around town (there are "blue duck" scooter & bike rentals around Greensboro, just download that app)

Great for running or walking. A lovely place for picnics and a fun little museum that's big enough to to show some good history without overwhelming you. They have huge reenactments several times a year and they are really fun.
