The calendar has turned to September and parents across the region are preparing their little ones (and not-so-little ones) to head back to school. The start of the school year means back to the grind of homework and following a bedtime schedule. It also means juggling after-school sports/activities schedules that sometimes get in the way of the traditional family dinner.
Fall tends to be a time when families rely on takeout to keep their family going as they attend back-to-school events, athletic games and activities, and the million and one things that come up at this time of year.
Burlington restaurants thankfully have you covered with a wide variety of nutritious meals and dishes for your family.
