INDIANAPOLIS – Bermuda, Spain and Indianapolis? Yes, you read that right. Indianapolis was named one of the 50 best places to travel to in 2017 by Travel and Leisure, among other breathtaking destinations.

Talk about shattering the stereotype.

Indianapolis was place on the list due to its exploding dining scene. Restaurants like nationally-recognized Milktooth and the new fried chicken eatery everyone is talking about – Crispy Bird, helped Indy land a spot on the list.

It doesn’t seem as if the city’s developing dining scene is slowing down any time soon. In 2017 Sun King Brewery will open a 15,000 square-foot distillery in Carmel and the Ironworks chain on the north side of the city will continue to boast both high end and casual restaurants like Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, Yolk, B Spot Burgers and Blue Sushi Sake Grill set to open at Ironworks Hotel.
