It was just another Friday evening. We successfully made it through the week and all of our groceries. Hunger strikes and the age-old question is asked, “what’s for dinner?” Over the past few months there has been quite a bit of buzz about Chester’s Smokehouse [15 Watervliet Ave, Albany, NY […]

Mr. Friendly’s New Southern Cafe [2001 Greene St, Columbia, SC 29205] This café was bustling with energy and life! I loved the atmosphere and eclectic art on the walls. The food was superb starting with the warm bread and herbed butter. Service was astute, my water was always filled, and […]
Dine al fresco in Great Barrington beside the pines of Main Street, feast upon elevated junk food as kings of the Berkshires! The Bistro Box [937 S Main St Great Barrington, MA 01230] is my favorite place to go after a gruelingly wonderful day of hiking and exploring Western Mass, […]
Kolache at Foxy Loxy [1919 Bull St, Savannah, GA 31401] is a rockin way to start your day. I had my first kolach (singular, plural has an E at the end) on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, Texas. One day I’ll get to writing about that […]
Breakfast here is the real deal, a serious greasy spoon. Walking into Narobia’s Grits & Gravy [2019 Habersham St, Savannah, GA 31401], it is no frills, but who needs frills when you have biscuits? Take a seat at a little table or up at the counter so you can watch […]
It’s funny how you can walk by something however many times and never notice it’s there. That was my story with Shindig [1 Tinker St, Woodstock, NY 12498], until one faithful afternoon when it finally appeared to me. It’s right in the center of town with a kitschy muted storefront. […]
Jewish delis are a staple back home in Westchester serving up solid soups and sandwiches, a real comfort meal. We don’t have a whole bunch of them upstate, so they’re one of the places I make a point to visit when I take the two and half hour journey back […]
Nothing fancy here, a little run down in fact, but I sure love a dive. Breakabeen General Store [115 Clauverwie Rd # 1, Middleburgh, NY 12122] was our lunch pick of the day in Schoharie County. The big old white building dabbles in a bit of everything, just like a […]
Classic, historical, but most importantly – downright delicious. Olde Bryan Inn [123 Maple Ave, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866] is my favorite restaurant in Saratoga Springs. I love OBI for so many reasons. First off you can’t beat the atmosphere. It’s an upscale tavern, but not pretentious and very affordably priced. […]
Driving through the Berkshires during peak foliage, what a vision the world was. We had already hiked Alander Mountain that day, and had plans for a museum later, but I wasn’t ready to give up the outdoors. It was our anniversary and I thought hey, why don’t we revisit a […]
Open at 6:30 AM daily, Brandy’s Restaurant [1500 E Cedar Ave #40, Flagstaff, AZ 86004] is an excellent choice for the early bird. We scored the last booth and cozy-ed on in and our eyes searched all of the eclectic art on the walls. I have to be in the […]
Delicious food, big portions, and friendly service. Mix [120 N Leroux St, Flagstaff, AZ 86001] is an excellent breakfast option while in Flagstaff. The restaurant is located in Heritage Square, if you see the puma you know you’re going the right way. It’s a wide open space with high ceilings […]
Service is really important in restaurants. When a place has really good friendly service, you feel even better about the food. When the food is just as great as the service, what could be better? We felt right at home in Sweet Cravings Bakery and Bistro [397 N Main St, […]
You need a big ‘ol breakfast early in the morning to get your day started right for hiking and adventuring around Moab. Head to Love Muffin Café [139 N Main St, Moab, UT 84532], they’ll give you what you need. First thing you may notice is the funky local art […]
I’m really fascinated by Salt Lake City. I was in town for such a short time it was hard to get a grasp on the deeper feel of it all, but I liked what I saw. You can’t drive around the city without noticing the Mormon Headquarters, the state capitol, […]
