Certified Good Bites

What earns a Certified Good Bite? (A CGB, if you will.)

It’s in the “you gotta try this” moments. The must-haves. The mouthful mumbled “ohmuhgawd.” The drooled-over dishes. The meals you talk about for days, weeks after.

For us, it’s two forks up and the notion that, if you had time for one meal in Nebraska or the Greater Omaha metro area, and you wanted to knock it out of the park – this is that list.
