- SSarahNew York City •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoCurate has a lovely setting. It is always a treat to eat there. Especially when the sun is out. I had the quiche and salad. The salad was VERY salty. I rarely put salt on a salad with lettuce so I was quite surprised and disappointed. Please tell the chef to hold the salt.More infoCurATE at Southern Vermont Arts CenterPrice: Moderate• American• Manchester•4.8

Discover Manchester
New England is known for its excellent variety of seafood restaurants and old-style taverns. Manchester, a small town in southern Vermont, certainly holds true to these traditions. Like most New England towns, there is a lot of history here, including some taverns dating back to 1790 that are still functioning restaurants today. Diners can expect a few staples in addition to the seafood chowders. For example, crab cakes and shrimp cocktail are both popular local dishes. New England, and especially the Boston area, is nothing without its "comfort" seafood dishes, so diners should plan on indulging in some crab meals, mussels and seafood soups in bread bowls.
