This past weekend I went apple picking at Eddy’s Fruit Farm out in Chesterland, OH. It was an awesome way to say goodbye to summer and hello to fall!

I have to confess, I stole this delicious picture from my mom’s Instagram account. This is the potato rosemary pizza she made for my sister’s 23rd birthday. Can you say fancy??

I have never loved a bakery as much as I love Five Points. Actually, let me expand on that: I have never loved anything as much as I love Five Points. I realize that the majority of my reviews are 5/5 stars, but its only because these places have made such an impression on me I feel compelled to shout my praises from the rooftops. Five Points is definitely one of those places.
If you are ever passing through Buffalo, you owe it to yourself to stop in and try some of their incredible bread. Pair that bread with some of their deliciously fresh and decadent cheeses and jams and you’ve got yourself a serious party.
The food isn’t the only thing worth talking about here either. The service is impeccable and the location and decor are on point. You feel at home when you’re sitting on the old wood benches watching the world go by through the huge picture windows. Not to mention, Five Points is doing a lot to better its community, and it certainly deserves my praise for that.
Pro tip:
Try the farmhouse and plum cherry jam option. It’s absolutely incredible.

If you haven’t ever had Winking Lizard’s Lizard Freckles with their wasabi dipping sauce you are seriously missing out.

Had an awesome time at last weeks Yelp! event which was held at Enso: Rolls and Bowls in Cleveland!

Welp Yelp, I can finally say I tried the elusive Noodlecat. I have been back-and-forth on whether or not to get food from here for a while now, mainly because of my fellow Yelpers inability to decide whether or not this place is awesome or sucks. The reviews are so all over the place I wasn’t sure if I really wanted to subject myself to the possibility of a bad meal. I decided once and for all the bite the bullet though and check this place out for myself.
Overall, I’m not super impressed. The location, servers, and vibe were a+, no complaints there, but the food was just lacking for me. Considering the price as well as the hype, I expected a pretty tasty dish when I ordered the smoked tomato coconut curry udon, instead though I got some pretty slimy noodles. The broth was good but overall could have used a bit more body, and the tofu was a pretty pointless addition to the dish. I wish they had gotten a little more creative with it. Just because I’m vegan doesn’t mean I like huge chunks of tofu in my soup!
The house sake was good though, it was infused with orange and lemon and I could have drank a barrel of it. It was just what I wanted while sitting outside in the late summer sun.
Overall, I vote skip Noodlecat. It just didn’t impress me enough to feel the need to recommend it to anyone or bother going back.
