We finally made it over to Hazelwood Food and Drink to try out their brunch menu.

Husband suggested we grab Sunday brunch at Kitchen and Rail in Eagan, Minnesota and after a quick look online I experienced a moment of deja vu seeing that the owners were familiar faces to me! To keep it short – in one of my previous lives (aka 10 years ago) I worked as a restaurant marketer. Through that restaurant’s giveback program I had the opportunity to work with the owner’s, Victor and Joe, through the charitable organization they’re involved with, MATTER, to create and distribute MATTERboxes (packs of premade food for those in need).
Because of their involvement with MATTER, I was also completely unsurprised to see that Kitchen and Rail has a mission of giving back to community organizations and causes ❤️.

I recently met up with one of my bests for brunch at Gary’s Supper Club in Lakeville, Minnesota. The food was really good and despite it being a “supper club” it was actually pretty casual!
Continue readingSpitz Mediterranean Street Food | Woodbury, MN
I was so excited to be invited to the Grand Opening weekend of Spitz Mediterranean Street Food in Woodbury! In this household we eat gyros pretty frequently so having a location less then 5 minutes from us is going to be dangerous.

Hope Breakfast Bar has been on my list for years so I was very excited when it was suggested as the location for our girls brunch.

We had a girls day that started off with us playing Purse Bingo at The Sportsman to raise money for the Somerset Community Food Shelf and then headed over to Kennedy’s Cafe for lunch. Such a cute little diner.
