| Publisher Description: Celebrate Youngstown's proud tradition of dining out, a commitment to hospitality that has endured through the tightening of the Rust Belt. Take a tour of restaurants like the MVR and the Boulevard, which continue to reflect Youngstown's ethnic diversity and tenacious entrepreneurial spirit, as well as establishments like Overture, which offer a promise of urban renewal from a refurbished downtown. And raise your glass to the best-laid tables of a bygone era, from the Mural Room to the 20th Century. |
