It’s been a while since I took the time to write, it’s good to be back!

I turned 30 in April, wooo! For my birthday, I visited Savannah, GA. I wanted to go somewhere I had never visited, and I heard amazing things about the food scene. I was not the slightest bit disappointed. The people and the hospitality were amazing! It really reminded me that there are kind people in the world! Here’s the list of restaurants I visited and that I highly recommend checking out!

FishBar

I made some adjustments in my reservation schedule just to eat a this place. From my understanding, it’s a newer resteraunt and is really blowing up! The restaurant focuses around their seasonal menu which I love. I wanted to come here soley for the for the full red snapper. It did not disappoint me, eyeballs and all. The menu is made up of small plates that are perfect for sharing. My mother and I shared the tartare and scallop as appetizer. They were both unbelievable. The scallop featured a callabrian chili oil that provided the right amount of heat. The surpising standout of the meal was the cabbage that was grilled. Who knew cabbage could taste so good! The staff treated us so well and even had a hand-written birthday card for me! I looked at their current menu and I am already planning my trip back!

Treyler Park

We would not have stopped here if it were not for our amazing Uber driver. She mentioned these peanut butter & jelly chicken wings, and I was intrigued. My mom is not the biggest chicken wing fan, but she is always down to find a good wing. Thank goodness we did! These wings are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The peanut sauce is not overly sweet and has more of an umami taste. The wings are paired with this peach jelly, OH MY GOD. We also had this collared green dip. This was a must-have. It was cheesy and savory, everything you want in a dip. We paired it with the Treylor Park spritzes and people-watching outside; it was the perfect afternoon!

Stone & Webster

I love nothing more than a big steak on my birthday. Webster & Stone is your classic steakhouse. The service was immaculate. By the time we left, I felt like I really bonded with our server. It was my birthday, so we went all out. We started with the oysters and moved on to the foie gras. Every bite was heaven. My steak was cooked perfectly, I could not have asked for better. I highly recommend getting the creamed spinach, oh my god, I could have eaten a whole pot. Our server surprised me with a little birthday cake. The whole dinner had such a special touch that you are looking for in an evening out.

Savannah Square Pops

Another recommendation from our amazing Uber driver. This shop makes gourmet popsicles. Their menu was pretty extensive, but I went with classic lemonade, and my mother went with a banana cream pie, which came with a Nilla cookie! The staff at the shop was so friendly, and the popsicles were refreshing and delicious. It’s the perfect afternoon stop!

Vic’s On the River

Had a late reservation at Vic’s and was seated a little early. We were informed by locals that we had to have the fried green tomatoes. OMG, thank goodness we listened. The tomatoes were fried perfectly (not soggy) and served on top of this pimento cheesy risotto situation. I wanted to lick the plate clean. I also had a delicious cup of crab soup with a crisp sauvy B. It was a perfect evening meal. Would go back solely for the tomatoes.

I will absolutely be returning to Savannah! The people were so friendly, and there were so many restaurants I did not get to try. What are some of your favorite Savannah restaurants?

Baked King’s Onion Soup

April 22, 2020April 21, 2020Recipes, Travel5 Comments

This has to be the all time BEST French Onion Soup recipe ever. Now, I do not say this lightly. This soup alone has caused countless trips to The Dobbin House Tavern in Gettysburg, PA. The stew meat and the gooey cheese are the KEY to this recipe. Seriously, I think I love this recipe so much solely because the amount of cheese that is involved. This recipe serves 6, but it is also perfect for leftover night!

Ingredients

6 Cups of Beef Stock (If you’re grocery shopping you’ll need 2 containers of stock)
2 TBSP Sweet Butter
6 Medium Onions, Peeled & Diced
1 Cup Stewing Beef, cut into 1/2 in. cubes
1 Cup Dry Sherry
6 Slices of White Bread
Provalone Cheese
Swiss Cheese

Let’s Get Cooking

Bring the beef stock to a low boil in a large saucepan.

While the beef stock is coming to a boil, melt butter in a skillet.

Add the diced onions to the skillet and sauté until they yellow.

In another skillet, brown the stew beef.

Once the onions have yellowed and the beef is cooked, add to the beef stock, along with the sherry.

Let the stock simmer for about 30 minutes.

Once ready to serve fill ovenproof bowls with the soup.

Add 1 slice of bread then comes the best part…

add 2 slices of the swiss cheese then 2 slices of provolone

Broil in the oven until the cheese browns and becomes ooey and gooey.

Trust me, just by looking at that melty cheese you are going to fall in love with this recipe. I also recommend going to the Dobbin House in Gettysburg, PA. It is such an experience, with history and food coming together, what’s not to love!

Cleveland Wing Crawl

March 12, 2020March 10, 2020Travel3 Comments

Never have I ever participated in any type of bar crawl. I am a bad day drinker, if I start to get sleepy it’s all over. NOW a food crawl is my type of scene! This weekend, I participated in Cleveland’s Wing Crawl with a few friends after a night out for her birthday. 4 bars in the Ohio City area took part in this and let me just say if they ever do this again I will be attending because I could eat chicken wings for days.

Touch Supper Club

Our first stop, the super cozy Touch Supper Club. The atmosphere was so chill it was the perfect place to start. Here they offered 3 types of wings, however, the majority of us decided to go with the Korean BBQ. IT WAS DELICIOUS. Super sticky and smoky, it had great flavor. We rated a 6/10

The Old Angle Tavern

The next stop, they had the perfect set up. You walked right up to a window and they provided you with their sampler of wings! They had TV’s on, good music, and good conversation. They offered a buffalo basil [the crowd fav], a bbq, and a house dry rub. Overall, it was pretty great! We rated 7/10

Nano Brew

The final stop: Nano Brew. Now at this point we are a few drinks in, 12 wings in and we are ready to go. Nano also offered a few options, including Cajun-Ranch Dry Rub, Bourbon Orange Teriyaki, MGB Prosperity BBQ, Spicy Tai Chili [THE ABSOLUTE BEST]. We stayed so long because we had to order another round of the Spicy Tai Chili. Seriously, go there and try these wings. We rated 8/10

Market Garden Brewery

Our last stop, we were unable to make it due to the fact that we got too comfortable at Nano Brew. So I cannot comment on the wings, but in passing by, they looked delicious!

So these Pub Crawls are featured in all sorts of different cities. They are put on by We Love Pub Crawls so go check their website to see if they are coming to a city near you!

A Cuban New Year

January 9, 2020January 9, 2020Travel4 Comments

I despise the New Year. The expectations, the goals that will never be accomplished, and everyone telling you how this year they are going to be ‘healthy’. I was happy to be able to spend the holiday outside of the States, celebrating with new traditions in Havana, Cuba. New Years traditions did not involve much of confetti poppers and loud music in Cuba. Tradition’s focused on growth and starting fresh. There were two practices we took part, the first included throwing out water from the windows of the house. The belief is that this will clean out the bad spirits in the house. An additional tradition, that has become my new favorite, is to walk around the block with a suitcase. This ensures that the individual will travel/get out of the country in the upcoming year.

My favorite part of traveling to a new country, is trying the cuisine, obviously. Restaurants are different than they are in America, because of the government structure. Restaurants are either privately run, Paladares, or State run. Throughout my time in Cuba we ate in mostly Paladares, they have better quality ingredients and more creative recipes. Not only that, but we visited many famous bars, including Sloppy Joes.

New Years Shots
The Famous Sloppy Joes
Like I said, a heavy hand
Seafood Paella
Daiquiri’s for days

Rum and Cokes were always on the table and I have to say they were often poured with a heavy hand. I was there for a short period of time and did not get to try everything that I wanted to. Ropa Vieja, Paella, and Croquetas all were tasted and even something familiar. However, I tried Congrí (black beans with white rice) and the black beans themselves became an obsession. I understand that this dish does not sound exciting, but the flavors are like no other, slightly spicy and smokey. It has become my goal now to recreate this recipe at home.

This year I am focusing on doing more things that I enjoy, like cooking and writing about food, just because. Don’t worry about making ridiculous goals this year. Do more of what makes you happy.

Made with Love,
