Dark Chocolate Covered Nutter Butter… Genius!

With an interesting assortment of nuts, chocolate, truffles, fudge, snack food and random chocolate covered treats (like marshmallows, pretzels, potato chips & cookies), we really enjoyed our handful of purchases. The dark chocolate covered raisins and sweet & spice pecans are de-lish!

Essex Bagels

French Toast Bagel

I know… I know bagels should be savory. No sweet toppings… it’s not traditional! Whatever. This mildly sweet bagel with the taste of maple syrup and cinnamon crumbs is divine! Just toast, butter and serve. What a perfect breakfast! I am officially ignoring the no sweet bagel […]

Sublime Doughnuts

Peanut Butter Cup

S’more

Chocolate Crunch

Chocolate Berry Fritter

The doughnuts at Sublime are extremely light and fluffy. They have very little substance under the glazes and candy crumbs. The yeasted doughnuts are rather mild… bordering on bland. Sugary glazes and crumbled […]

Table 1280

Rock Shrimp with Grits

Subtle changes to a traditional recipe make a world of difference. Rock shrimp are beautiful in this delicate broth with wine and cream. The delicate hint of wine and a mirepoix diced to a fine brunoise transform this Southern Classic into a brand new elegant dish. […]

Fatburger

If ever there could be such a thing as a great fastfood burger, it would be the Fatburger. Given the competition, it isn’t hard to top the list of favorite fast food burgers. A soft fluffy bun, rich beef flavor with a good amount of char that lends the impression of smoke, […]
