Even I find it hard to believe that before this weekend, I'd never been to Musa! At noon on Sunday the place was teeming with trendy locals and I had to wait about 10 minutes to get a seat - thankfully I was able to sip a latte at the bar while doing…More »

I've just joined Cora's Enthusiast's Club, and boy do I feel great. No really. It's an actual thing. A club for people who love Cora's. Who doesn't love fan clubs? Exclusive sneak peeks that involve brunchy foods AND a fun newsletter to keep me…More »

Kumquat. In my fruit salad. KUMQUAT!! Such a weird word (and an odd-looking fruit), yet there it was, staring me in the face perched atop a bunch of other tropical fruits in my badass side salad. Karine's does not screw around when it comes to sides,…More »

First impressions are paramount, right? When I arrived I was greeted with the following: "Hey, we're really busy. Either you'll have to put up with slow service as I'm the only person working, or I'll have to turn you away."
