Pretty Bird Coffee

Happy last Saturday before Christmas 
Of course, I had to make a stop at my favorite coffee lounge ~ Pretty Bird Coffee. Although, I’ve been here a million times. I still like taking pics of this super cute place that has yummy drinks/food and the most fantastic team and sweet owners. Check out the adorable packaging of their self-roasted coffee beans. The perfect gift. 
Today, I’m having cheesy grits with scrambled eggs, kale chips, spinach, tomato and sriracha berry drizzle. Crazy good. XOXO 💋

Double Knot

Few more pics of holiday fun and absolutely amazing, probably the best Japanese I’ve ever had. The perfect speakeasy type of candlelit restaurant that has a wonderful assortment of small plate options for everyone. And tons of options for vegetarians and vegans. Plus super tasty innovative cocktails and the largest sake collection in Philadelphia. 
So descend down the stairs and feast your eyes on beautifully plated creative and tasty food. Absolute must try. Thank you Nicole Frick Biancofor arranging the dinner plans. Had a fantastic time with both you and Lisa Lukasiewicz Welch 💋

Bottega Louie Restaurant and Gourmet Market

Feast your eyes on this meal that we enjoyed housed in a beautiful grand magnificent all white space. A bustling, vibrant restaurant with the aroma of fragrant food from an completely open kitchen. Presented by magnificent servers and gracious managers. 
The vino, the appetizers, main course and finally the desserts. Come on, absolutely amazing. The next time you are in LA, to plan to dine at Bottega Louie. They don’t take reservations, but trust me it’s well worth the wait. 💋💋

Will BYOB

One example of happiness is to share a beautiful dining experience with girlfriends. We inspire one another, giggle out loud together, show compassion and true concern for one another. We simply just accept each other exactly as they are.. concluding, wow, they are all absolutely delightful. 

Tonight we had the pleasure of dining at Will BYOB located on Passayunk Ave in So.Phila.
This extremely special French inspired culinary gem which features regional ingredients in a cozy intimate setting is led by Chef Chris Kearse.
Chef Chris is a true culinary genius. The 2nd oldest of 8 children born and raised in Levittown, Bucks County,PA.
He began cooking as a child, but his gift was unearthed when he took over cooking duties for his family, preparing dinner for his parents and 7 siblings every night while he was in high school.
His gift lead him to be offered positions in many of America’s top restaurants including the highly regarded French Laundry in Napa Valley, CA.

So fest your eyes on the culinary presents Chef Chris prepared for us. Bon Appetit💋

Blue Moose Restaurant & Cafe

No one does Sunday Brunch better than Skylar of the Blue Moose Cafe, and to do so with your family and friends. Absolutely perfect.

Ahh, a fantastic way to start the week.

La Stalla Italian Market

March 26, 2017

Happy Sunday!!! 

The perfect Sunday breakfast is awaiting you at La Stalla Italian Market in Newtown, Bucks County, PA.

The Sfogliatelle pastry was slightly warm, just the right amount of flaky pastry and powdered sugar.. the perfect accompaniment to my cappuccino.

My afternoon treat will be the Asiago bread, this too was slightly warm when I purchased it. The aroma of the warm bread is intoxicatingly fantastic.. yesterday I only bought one, and totally regretted it. So today two it is. You know it's fantastic when your child wakes up and says .. all I want for breakfast is the Asiago bread.

Congratulations to my friends, The Masso family. 
💋
