The Huntersville takeout roundup

Intro (REQUIRED — 150–300 words)

Another Phase 2 fixture. Replace before launch with a real Host take on Huntersville takeout — the kind of list somebody who actually lives in the area would hand a new neighbor.

The premise, when this becomes a real video: Huntersville gets written off as "the suburb between Charlotte and Mooresville" by people who don't live here, and its restaurants end up invisible on blogs that privilege Davidson or Cornelius. That's unfair. The roundup is a Wednesday-night, I'm-tired ordering guide — not a food critic's best-of. Categories are casual: pizza, handheld sandwiches, the one Thai place we keep going back to, and the taco window that opens too late on the weekend.

This is a dining video, so the filter system has to surface it under the "dining" category and the "Huntersville" location tag. The Phase 2 /videos grid should let a reader toggle either pill and see the right cards. That's the feature this fixture is here to prove works.

Editorial tone stays the same as the rest of the site: specific, first person, no chamber-of-commerce gloss. The real version names the taco window, the sandwich order, and the bartender who knows your kid.
