New Hampshire's largest city, Manchester, is home to some of the state's finest restaurants. If you have a taste for a specific cuisine, chances are you can find it downtown. There's one location, however, where the menu is a bit different, especially if you are looking for clean, healthy meals.

Restoration Cafe, operated by longtime Manchester restaurateur Tom Puskarich, resides in the ground floor of The Flats, an historic Manchester building originally constructed for apartments in 1892.

The courtyard adjacent to the main cafe is a cozy spot to enjoy breakfast and lunch, tucked away from Manchester's busy downtown.

Inside, the cafe is just as comfortable and welcoming as the sunny courtyard.

New Hampshire's seacoast is very small, so it's important to take advantage of each and every opportunity to explore its treasures. From its beaches and state parks to its historic sites, there's a lot packed into this small area. One other thing that is abundant along the seacoast is the wide variety of great restaurants, with cuisine to suit all tastes. Latitudes in New Castle, one of the great spots for waterfront dining in New Hampshire, offers both great food and great scenery.

When you think of New Hampshire, you may not think of it being a hot spot for great ethnic food. But due to the New England region's diverse population, nothing could be further from the truth. If you can think of a certain international cuisine, chances are you can find it somewhere in the Granite State. I love to switch up the traditional restaurant offerings from time to time and if you are a fan of Greek food, Amphora Restaurant & Taverna in Derry is one to put on your must-visit list!

Amphora Restaurant & Taverna in Derry takes its name from the classic vessel from ancient times with a pointed base and characteristic shape.
