2 Guys Grille

I’ve had the pleasure of eating at 2 Guys Grillein Morrisville, NC twice in the past two weeks. The first time I ever went to a 2 Guys Grille was in Wilmington, NC and I had no idea they were even in the triangle until I was scheduling a meeting with JV Cotterell of the [...]


Cafe Carolina

When I was at NC State I ate at the Cafe Carolina in Cameron Village once or twice. I remember liking it, but don’t remember being super impressed. This past week a woman with the JR Womans club of Raleigh suggested we meet at a Cafe Carolina for lunch and I was excited because I was curious to [...]


Sunflowers

Last week Doug, Ashley Sue, and myself were all going out to lunch. Doug and I were thinking Coopers, but since Ashley Sue is a Vegan we knew we would have to switch it up and (no offense to Coopers), but I’m so glad we did! We ended up going to Sunflowers off of Peace [...]


Cruise food…ate way too much!

It’s been a little over a week now since I got back from my cruise and I have to say I’m still getting used to these numbers on the right side of all the menus. Yes, the prices, I don’t like them, on the cruise everything’s free and I loved it..probably a little too much! The food [...]

Tookies Grill in a gas station!

The other day myself and my co-workers Courtney and Doug (you can see Doug in the reflections ) went out for lunch. I’ve been hearing about Tookies, which has a restaurant downtown but they also have locations around Raleigh, one of them being in the gas station down the street from our station! We hopped in the [...]

Locally owned and operated restaurants?!

Hi everyone! I’m going to a new Italian restaurant in Clayton tonight, called Mulberry on Main, and I’m really excited  because I’ve heard so many good things about it! I’ll be taking my camera so expect to see something soon on it!
 My question today though is……where are some good locally owned and operated restaurants in [...]


Over the Falls Deli…Delish!

A week or so ago I was in one of my favorite places in this area, Wake Forest! I had a career fair that morning and some meetings that afternoon so for lunch I joined my friend, Lauren at Over the Falls Deli in downtown Wake Forest. I had been there once before for a meeting [...]
