Saturday seemed like the perfect day to check out Noda’s newest brewery: Free Range Brewing. Doors opened at 5 PM and the place was pretty packed by 5:30. They offer half pints, which is a great way to try each of their eight brews without having to drink eight beers, I mean, unless of course… Read More Free Range Brewing: Let your taste buds roam
I attended my first #instabeerupCLT in March, and I’ve been every month since (kicking myself for not going before then!). I am incredibly excited for next week’s #instayearup at Unknown Brewing. Instabeerup is more than just an opportunity to have beer at one of Charlotte’s many craft breweries. You can do that any day of… Read More #InstabeerupCLT: Why you should be there
Everytime I log into Instagram, I see tons of pictures posted of Charlotte’s skyline. No shame there. It is a pretty skyline. The sunsets have been magnificent lately, only making it prettier. The only thing better than staring at the skyline from your balcony, is taking a gander of it from above. Last week, I took… Read More Queen City Helicopters: Birds Eye View
In my best Chris Traeger voice, I literally loved everything about The Summit Room. We arrived 45 minutes early for our reservations and decided to grab a drink at the bar. That quickly turned into two drinks because they were so smooth. The Summit Room’s Cucumber Collins is the ONLY gin drink that I have… Read More At the Summit
I had an impromptu dinner date with a friend at Viva Chicken, and it was so good, I went back the following week for lunch with another friend. Ordering at the counter isn’t my favorite type of restaurant, but for Peruvian roasted chicken and fried plantains, I’ll do it. From their website: “Our chicken is 100% natural,… Read More Viva Las Chicken
The joys of boat ownership, without all the hassle and upkeep, are now accessible to just about anyone. Well, anyone willing to pay a monthly membership to a boat club. My brother is one of those people who was willing to join the boat club and I have twice benefited from this and enjoyed two… Read More I’m on a Boat!
We all scream for Elizabeth Creamery. Seriously, I haven’t stopped thinking about going back since our post-dinner stop on Saturday evening. And since we’re already hitting 90 degrees here in Charlotte, it’s definitely the season for ice cream. There were several other couples and families visiting the homemade ice cream shop while we were there, enough… Read More I scream, you scream…
Krazy Fish is located in Plaza Midwood and offers just that, a crazy experience. The creativity doesn’t stop with the decor; the menu is an eclectic collection of dishes with everything from tacos to grits (a must-try!) to pad Thai. The description “soul seafood fusion” is spot on. With so many options to choose from, we… Read More A Krazy Dinner
Charlotte’s greenway system is one of the greatest things about the city – at least for active / outdoorsy individuals. The greenways offer trails and asphalt for running/walking, allow pets, and give you the feel of nature while still being in the city. Yesterday, I took a easy three-mile run on Little Sugar Creek Greenway,… Read More Little Sugar Creek Greenway
Finding Ass Clown Brewery in Cornelius was trickier than I thought. It’s in an industrial area that almost looks like an empty strip mall. The inside is a different story. It’s decorated beautifully (for a brewery) and is welcoming once inside. There’s a seating area to the left when you walk in, another to the right… Read More Tap Some Ass Clown
