The food is hearty and well-prepared, just what you need after a day of hiking or skiing. Enjoy pizzas topped with meatballs and marina sauce, or consider the pork chops with roasted-peach jam and sharp-cheddar grits. There's a good kids' menu, and tempting desserts, too.

Nonna's Kitchen

$$

Set in a vintage barber shop in downtown Gorham—8 miles north of the Mt. Washington Auto Road—this homey restaurant is a tribute to the owners' Italian grandmothers. Indeed, the menu reads like a roll call of favorites from the best restaurants in Boston's or New Haven's Little Italy neighborhoods—classic antipasto, feathery gnocchi with pesto, eggplant parmigiana, veal piccata, and linguine with clams and red sauce. Everything is prepared with fresh ingredients and attention to detail.
