Wanted to ensure that I thanked the good folks at Ichiban Restaurant for being their for my family and I when we needed a place to eat late at night. We arrived from the airport late day and were on the hunt for somewhere to eat. Choices in Burlington were very limited. Not interested in eating at a bar, my family located Ichiban, as it was one of the only establishments that remained open into the morning hours that served something other than greasy foods.
