Did somebody say Brunch Pop-up?

Not only is Sea Salt Eatery open for the season, but they had a debut of a Brunch Pop-up this past weekend for Easter! Every option on the menu sounded remarkable, so I had to sample it all! Pictured in order are the Deviled Eggs, Spam Musubi, Savory and Sweet Crepes, Bread Pudding, and Lox Bagel. I also tried the Eggs Benedict, but it’s just not pictured here. It’s tough to pick a favorite, but my top sweet would be the crepe, and top savory is likely the Spam Musubi, but I’d order any menu item again! All items were enjoyed with Minnehaha Falls in sight too! I’ll definitely be watching for their next Brunch Pop-Up!

Stay tuned for a blog post soon!!

If the opinion of wasn’t enough to convince you to try Red Wagon Pizza Company, I am here to place my recommendation as well!!

impressed me with every detail! They had a wide variety of beer, cider, cocktails, and N/A options. And I was fortunate to try a variety of creative items from their menu! Pictured is the Garlic Butter Pepperoni Rolls, P.S.O., Red Wagon Pizza.

A very family-friendly space with a seasonal dog-friendly patio! Both your dog and I suggest that you order the sopressata on your pizza and get enough to share 😅🍕🐶

is the perfect stop for anyone with a sweet tooth! Located off of South Congress Ave. in Austin, Texas, they offer seasonal and annual donuts, along with other baked goods and beverages, including coffee, lattes, and teas.

Pictured from left to right are their Horchata, Churro & Dulce de Leche, Strawberry Shortcake, Traditional Glazed, Mini Key Lime Pie, and GF Blueberry Crumble Cake donuts.

Which of their donuts would you like to try?

Wow !! Ambiance, the kindest staff, heated patio, kids’ offerings - the Best Chef Midwest 2024 has an incredible restaurant that I could continuously rave about!!

I was able to enjoy the delightful flavor combinations in the Butternut Squash Wonton Starter and the Balinese Chicken Thigh Plate. The chili flavors mixed with the sweetness of the squash really stood out in the wontons, and the chicken plate was executed perfectly!

I’m excited to return to get a taste of my favorites and explore the rest of the menu!! What menu item are you interested in trying?

I have always loved getting out in my community, experiencing new places, gathering with others, traveling, and learning! Food presents opportunities to bring all of those things together!

During my travels to Japan, I happened to make a reservation at a Spanish restaurant, , and enjoyed the company of chef . From our conversations, I felt encouraged to bring my passion to life, to simply do what I love. Now we are here; my website is live and my first blog post is shared! Check out my blog post (https://www.sipsandsustenance.com/blog/masia/) to hear more about my experience at MASIA, and yes, do check out MASIA too!!

I cannot wait to see where else my journey at Sips and Sustenance will take me! If you’re interested in my offerings, please reach out! I would love to connect 🤗

is an incredible hang out spot for some sips and some za! They offer a variety of brews on tap, ciders, wine, seltzers, cans, and non-alcoholic options as well! Their Neapolitan style pizzas are handcrafted with fermented dough, hand-pulled mozzarella, and local ingredients. I had bites from their “Sweet Honey Love” and enjoyed my personal favorite, the “Muppy.” Go visit for an excellent place to socialize and hang out for a while, or pick up some packs to go! 🍕🍻

I always love spending a Saturday afternoon (or any day) at Bridge Street Brew! They offer such a welcoming environment, kind staff, an incredible drink selection, and delicious breakfast/lunch options, too!!

The highlighted sustenance includes my favorite lunch item, tomato bisque with cornbread, in addition to mac and cheese, a raspberry-peach muffin, and their Bee Mine (a specialty latte with rose, lychee, whip, and honey drizzle)! is worth every visit!! ✨

Part two of the holiday recap: A festive dip for pretzel crisps, crackers, or whatever your heart is desiring!! Ingredients include freshly made cranberry sauce, layered and mixed to add a sweet and tart flavor, cream, parmesan cheeses, to satisfy the need for savory, and jalapeños and orange zest to add a kick!! Will this appetizer be on your table next season? Will the pink and red color inspire you for the upcoming Valentine’s or Galentine’s celebrations? 💖
