Five Grand Junction Restaurants Serving Local Ingredients
The spring season is in full swing and for many local restaurants this means seasonal ingredients are soon to hit the tables. With the buzz surrounding Jared Leto’s visit to local restaurant, Bin 707 Foodbar in Grand Junction, Leto wasn’t the only a-lister among these hot topics.
