On my long trek to Phoenix, I had a layover in Charlotte.

After a quick Google search, I saw 1897 Market had some pretty stellar reviews so we stopped there for lunch.

It was actually huge, with a beautiful dining space and a pretty cool little market area.

I saw a pasta dish when I walked in and ordered what I thought was that -- bucatini. It wasn't, but it was still delicious! Cream sauce, bacon jam and parmesan - yum!
