Food & Wine

Similar to the Pop Tarts pop-up store, Kellogg’s has launched a cereal cafe in New York City as a marketing move. They will be serving “elevated” breakfast cereal, such as “Frosted Flakes with pistachios, lemon zest, and fresh thyme.” It will be opening this Monday, July 4th, in the Time …

The new Vinebox service allows you to taste new wines a glass at a time. I always love discovering new wines.  That’s why I’m a huge fan of tasting at different wineries. What I don’t like is spending a lot of money on a bottle of wine, only to find out …

I subscribe to a service called Tasting Room done by Lot18. Lot18 is a website that peddles wines.  I got into it because sometimes I was able to snag bottles of wine for ~$0.98. I ended up subscribing to Tasting Room, which is a service that sends you a case …

I’ve previously written about different snack companies I liked to get shipments from to take traveling with me.  I’ve since had a lot of food restrictions introduced that haven’t allowed me to eat as many things as I’d like! One of those snack companies I’ve used, Love With Food, has …

I’ve been a huge fan of the Matchbox restaurants in DC and going there has been an exception to my usual “happy hour” rule. But today was the official first day of Matchbox’s happy hour. Matchbox specializes in wood-fired brick oven pizza but has also had amazing house-made vodka-infusions.  I …

Back in March, I wrote about a European Medieval Beer and Whiskey tasting happening in the DC metro area.  A bunch of readers went and reported back that it was a lot of fun. I’ve since been to the Medieval Wine tastings they do, and it was a great time. …

This bar combines a few of my favorite things:  grilled cheese, tater tots, and a selection of unusual ciders. Oh and it’s name?  Spacebar.  And they embrace the theme. Spacebar is located in Falls Church, VA and features an ever-rotating selection of unusual and local draft/bottled beers. It also carries …

Once Try the World came out, I saw a lot of positive reviews for the concept of it. And the concept is cool.  Every other month, you receive a box of 6-7 delicacies from a country of the month. All for $39. I signed up for a few months to check …
