Durham blogger shares restaurants getting her through pandemic

Despite the coronavirus pandemic, Watson has been able to continue her blog, highlighting some of her favorite restaurants to get take-out.

In addition to burritos, Watson said she and her family have been indulging in Indian food and hitting up some local sandwich shops for to-go orders.

"Mexican food has been great. NuvoTaco (formerly known as Nanataco), they've been amazing from the start. They transitioned right away before that was even a standard rule. They transitioned to curbside," Watson said.

And if you want a sweet treat, Rockwood Dairy Bars is located right across the street from NuvoTaco.

"They opened it during the pandemic," Watson said. "They have slowly started to introduce more things like milkshakes. They used to just sell pints."

Local food truck El Jefecito also opened the doors at its first brick-and-mortar location during the pandemic. "They have delicious tacos," Watson said.
