One of the most anticipated restaurants is finally open – The Brewer’s Table is creating incredible dishes that change with the seasons. I was pleasantly surprised with how many of the dishes were plant-based, full of fresh herbs, and incredibly light. We started with some snacks for the table including smoked fish dip, puffed lager chicharrones, […]

The 2nd Annual Hot Luck Festival was even better than I could’ve imagined: I had some of the best smoked meats, enjoyed cuisine from the most talented chefs, met a ton of many friendly faces, and oh, the tequila. Here are a few of my favourite bites from the weekend! Al Fuego: Central Standard’s grilled […]

I had a sneak preview of their new spring menu and you can see all the details with pictures below! I loved every SINGLE menu item. Seriously. It […]

You know when a restaurant has been around for a few years and it’s on your “list” to try but you never get around to it? Well, Geraldine’s was on my list but I finally tried it last weekend and I’m SO glad I did. I wasn’t sure what to expect, because sometimes upscale, small […]

With all local and fresh ingredients (produce from JBG and 44 Farms) you can order with extra confidence! The only difficult part is choosing WHAT to order because all […]
