On almost any given night on Third Street, hungry patrons can be found waiting outside of the recently-opened Taste of India on Third Street. McMinnville finally has an Indian restaurant and our town is here for it. If you have yet to go, here is a little introduction to the restaurant, cuisine, and people that make it worth a visit.
McMinnville welcomes the new restaurant, Pinch
With a name like Pinch, it’s hard not to think of the several idioms that feature that particular word and how they might apply to the newly opened restaurant in McMinnville. For instance, “Pinch me, I must be dreaming because this almond cake is ridiculously delicious;” “This is where I want to go for drinks in a Pinch (or anytime);” or “Just a Pinch (or more) of this bearnaise sauce, please.” The meaning of the name isn’t important because all of the statements work for the food and feel of this new dining space.
