Review:

The Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University in Durham is focused on the world's contemporary art from artists who have been unrepresented. You will certainly enjoy the museum's 13,000 works of art, but you do not have to visit the museum to enjoy the Nasher Museum Café, a sleek, modern café very popular with students for its superbly prepared food. The menu relies on local, seasonal, and organic produce and is light and healthy, with great sandwiches and salads. The best deal at the Nasher Museum Cafe are the platters, such as the Southern Accent Platter with Mississippi remoulade, pickled okra, celery sticks, spicy tomato jam and three of fried green tomatoes, deviled egg, local corn succotash, smoked Gouda macaroni bites, or NC pimento cheese toasts. The café also has a respectable wine list.

Address: Nasher Museum Cafe, 2001 Campus Dr, Durham, NC 27701, Phone: 919-684-6032
