Trendy Durham Restaurant
Watts Grocery is not, as its name might suggest, a grocery store. The Durham restaurant specializes in chic preparations of Southern fare, most of which is not vegetarian. However, there are always a few lacto-ovo-vegetarian items on the menu and some of the daily specials have been known to be vegan.

As a vegan, I was somewhat hesitant to add Watt's Grocery to VegGuide, since the only vegan item on their regular dinner menu is a salad (albeit, a very delicious salad, but a salad nonetheless). However, I had truly exquisite vegan entree (homemade pappardelle pasta with a cheese-free basil pesto sauce, sauteed with porcini mushrooms, heirloom tomatoes and onions) which happened to be one of the specials on the particular night that I was at Watt's Grocery, so I figured that others might want to know about it. I guess the best advice that I can give is to call ahead and mention that you're vegan before making a reservation.
