Portland, Maine is a fantastic city for food (and beer!) lovers, and I’m already dreaming of a return visit. With something exciting around every corner, we only scratched the surface of what this vibrant city has to offer. Here’s everything we explored in Portland and the surrounding areas: […]
One of my favorite ways to explore a new city is through its local brewing scene. My girlfriend and I took a day-trip to Richmond and in addition to eating some delicious food, we also tried some fantastic beers. Recently, Richmond has been getting some good press about […]
Update: Ink & Bean and Good Things are now closed. While I was in California, I did need to get some work done and some quick research showed that Ink & Bean wasn’t too far from my hotel and the space looked awesome online. Fortunately, it did not […]
One of my favorite parts about traveling is coffee shop hopping. After some browsing, it seemed that Portola Coffee Roasters was one of the best coffee roasters in the area so of course I needed to check it out. The location in Orange was closest to where I […]

I don’t venture out there nearly enough but Howard County has plenty of good places to grab a bite to eat. Manor Hill Brewery brews plenty of great beers and they opened up a restaurant where you could not only enjoy their beers but have a great bite […]
My drink of choice is usually beer so a brewery that is serving great plates of food is just my speed. Bluejacket in the Navy Yard perfectly fits this description. The beers are fantastic, the space has an industrial vibe but it’s still warm and inviting, and most of […]
Barrack’s Row has so many great restaurants. And when I heard that EatBar was offering Red Apron Burgers, I knew I needed to check it out. I stopped in for brunch after a recent Saturday morning visit to Eastern Market. If you haven’t been, Eastern Market is an […]
There are few things I love as much as BBQ. Smokey tender brisket, sweet and slightly spicy sauce, and all the delicious sides – my mouth is watering now just thinking about it! So I was thrilled to find out that my Southwest sponsored trip to Cincinnati included […]
