Fall Preview Menu at Bear



A bit bummed out that summer is over, I have to face reality and embrace the upcoming fall season.  But it's not all bad, as fall is a nice time of year with mild temperatures and some interesting seasonal eats.  I love that some neighborhood eateries are adjusting their menus to reflect this seasonal change, and Bear is of course one such early adopter.  Their fall menu looks quite enticing...full of root vegetables, mushrooms, and tons of protein.  Just take a look:
