Sharing our experiences eating out and what we cook at home--everything related to food and drink

Etienne Dupont cider we bought after a tasting—reminded me of the farm fields in Germany. The yeast is captured from the air in the areas surrounding the brewery.

New poke place called Pokey has a soft opening deal this weekend - buy one, get one free! It’s located near Wannabe’s karaoke :)

Stopped Dave’s BBQ on the way home yesterday. It’s been a while and I needed it really bad! Had the brisket, ribs, and sweet sausage. Loved the beans too!

Marleigh and Geordie wanted to make sure we visited one of their favorite restaurants while we were in NYC - Cervo’s. We loved the Spanish and Portuguese influenced meals and wines. The Lamb Burger was amazing, the flavor reminded us of the lamb we would eat in Germany which was a very nice surprise. If you’re up there go check it out!

Geordie made us Arepas for breakfast. First time having one, it was delicious!

I was craving charcuterie tonight and Shelby constructed this from what we had in the house. It hit the spot! Thanks @schpatzle, I’m a lucky guy ;)

Stopped by Esoteric and you know I ordered wings!

Shelby and I were invited to the local Saladworks to try out their new Southwest and the Asian Peanut Chicken Bowls. Honestly though, it was our first time so everything there was new to us! We've been curious about it since they opened up but never had a chance to stop by. The two bowls came out this season and they wanted to let everyone know what they were about.

Everyone is talking about chicken sandwiches but this was the best one I’ve had recently - the Southern Fried Chicken at Union Alehouse in Virginia Beach. Cooked perfect, juicy and tossed in their house wing sauce. 10/10 would so again.

Had this delicious brisket from @bar_q yesterday at their @commonwealthbrewco pop-up. They sold out!

Beautiful Squash Blossoms from @newearthfarmvb in our salad tonight!
