What are your weekend plans? We’ve for the local distillery with a new craft cordial here and a #negroni has never done me wrong.

I don’t post here enough anymore, but here is the #friedchicken lunch special from @samstaproom - it has an almost cult following for a reason:
It’s been a little while since I posted here so a quick look at the HAM Italian beef, @BigO_Midtown chicken sandwich, Camp Taco birria, and Cypress Social chocolate cake
A well deserved treat dining at Bar Cleeta in Bentonville last night. A spectacular wine list (bikicki traminer) and the best octopus I’ve had in a decade. Everything was intentional and beautifully balanced.

The @blvdbreadco porchetta remains one of my all time favorite sandwiches even so many years later. Masked employees & distanced tables to boot.
Opening a new spot in the midst of pandemic? Ups the difficulty but Brood & Barley is showing food, beers, and cocktails that can shine in any year or environment.
Restaurants are softly reopening with the 33% capacity and distancing limitations. Have you been out and had a notably good or bad experience? Layla’s still hits the spot by the way.
While @delucaspizza1 in @HOTSPRINGSGOV is rightly known for the best pizza in the state, this simple burger is one of the best bites you can get anywhere.

It’s time to ease into the weekend and a 3:1 @rocktowndistill Feast in the Field Gin Martini from Atlas Bar definitely makes it more comfortable
It’s a chilly, rainy, Monday night - that means cocktail time in my head. What’s your local watering hole for a good drink & good atmosphere? I’m lucky with @rocktowndistill a few blocks away making Vespers with the Feast in the Field gin for a treat
A spectacular dinner from Table 28 tonight. Drinks. Service. Ambiance. Food. It’s a complete package and the local roasted mushrooms & ricotta app are deceptively simple and delicious

Unexpectedly ending up in O’Hare means a chance to grab a @Frontera_Grill torta and see how airport food can be done right!
Support your local dive bar, especially when they do a classic brunch including Eggs Benedict & Chicken and Waffles - Pizza D’Action doing it right
A great night at Graffiti’s with wine, pasta, tiramisu, and great service - when the last time you went?

Managed to grab a muffuletta from @districtfare which is still one of my favorite options on the menu even on Burfer Friday’s!

I can’t say enough good about the impromptu date night at @SouthonMainLR last night - the team there is firing on all cylinders and has really been excelling with the technique, flavor, and service! Beet tartar and the trout were really my highlights
