Hearth Pizza Tavern

They offer table, booth and bar seating indoors. And, a small patio with tables is off to the side. A wooden screen […]

Fox Bros. Watermelon Margarita

Current Favorite Cocktail: Fox Bros’ Watermelon Margarita

What makes this margarita so special? It’s subtle, it’s fresh, and it’s soooo easy to drink. The fresh watermelon juice with a tiny splash of sugar syrup, a squeeze of lime and just the right amount of tequila are all that’s needed to make this perfect summer cocktail. […]

Guilty Pleasure: Bojangles — Sweet Potato Pie

Marlow's Tavern

The Setting: Just inside 285 on La Vista Road, the entrance is a bit odd. You walk into what appears to be a hotel lobby. If you walk forward, you’re in the bar. But, if you turn off to the left, you’ll find plenty of booth and table seating. Next time, maybe we’ll find our […]
