Charlie Sizemore is owner of Taco Gordo; one of the many new restaurants popping up on and around Burlington's North Winooski Avenue.

Visitors to Burlington tend to focus their attention on The Church Street Marketplace for shopping and dining. But just a few blocks away - on the fringe of the Old North End - is North Winooski Avenue, and it appears to be evolving into a restaurant zone.

From Moroccan cuisine to good ol' pizza pie, the area in and around North Winooski Ave is buzzing with unique eateries. Seven Days food writer, Sally Pollak, has even heard it called Burlington's new restaurant "district." Pollack stopped by The VPR Cafe to share some of the flavors she discovered while noshing along the avenue at Taco Gordo, Little Morocco Cafe and Pizzeria Ida.
