DLM is international finalist for ‘Best Gourmet Grocer’
A Dayton-area grocer is getting some national — well, international, really — recognition.
Dorothy Lane Market — the locally owned grocer which operates stores in Oakwood, Washington Twp. and Springboro — has been named one of five finalists in the category of Best Gourmet Grocer or Food Hall in the Luxist Readers’ Choice Food Awards.
Luxist, a luxury goods and lifestyle web site and a division of AOL, accepted and vetted nominations for the awards, according to Luxist, which describes DLM as “an Ohio-based nominee that is family-owned and operated is recognized for its great food and service.” Other finalists include Zabar’s in New York City, Harrods Food Hall in London, New York-based Dean & DeLuca, and Whole Foods.
(Now that, my friends, is some rarefied air for DLM to be competing against.)
The winner is determined by online voting. To vote, go to www.luxist.com/awards-vote/food-awards.
Winners are scheduled to be announced Nov. 30.

TweetDining out on Thanksgiving: Here are some options
One thing about Norman Rockwell’s depictions of Thanksgiving dinner: turning those paintings into dining room reality takes one heck of a lot of hard work.
About one in 10 Americans celebrates the holiday a bit differently from what Norman had in mind: they dine out. And as many as half of Americans supplement their meals with ready-to-eat takeout items of some kind, according to the National Restaurant Association.
Several Miami Valley restaurants — and their cooks, servers and dishwashers — are volunteering to do the work for you. In both the Dayton Daily News print and online editions, we invited restaurant owners to let readers know if they were open on Thanksgiving Day and what they were serving. (Some of the restaurants below also offer carryout dinners, as do several local grocery stores — call for details and ordering deadlines.) Here’s a list of those restaurants that responded to our solicitation.
