'Tis the season for end-of-year wrap-ups, and Ian McNulty of the Gambit does a good job of trying to fit the whole year into a cohesive narrative. From burgers and pizza on Freret and elsewhere to pop-ups and more, in 2011 New Orleans' restaurant scene became stronger more diverse. And with the industry's outpouring of love in support of Michael Bordelon and Nathanial Zimet (among others), "Restaurants across the spectrum proved that in our community it's more than just what's on the plate that counts." [Gambit]
