Perched at the top of Gondola One on Vale Mountain, The 10th offers not just beautiful views but also amazing gluten-free fare! This is the most swoon-worthy stop I’ve made in a long while. I’m an avid snow skier but rarely eat at on-hill restaurants. First, there’s rarely anything I can eat and second, the…
I Ate Here: La Bodega, Kansas City, MO and Leawood, KS
I’m a sucker for a restaurant with a patio. And happy hour. I love a happy hour bargain. La Bodega delivers on both counts. Half price drinks, including sangria (even by the pitcher) and tapas are offered from 2 to 6 PM Monday-Friday, 2 to 4 PM on Saturday and 4 to 6 PM on…

On a recent trip to Chicago, I made sure I wouldn’t walk by again without stopping in…
I Ate Here: Taco Punk, Louisville, Kentucky
I planned to eat at Taco Punk once. I ended up eating there three times in a week. The tacos are seriously good here and I could eat them every single day. For a week, I almost did. If it weren’t for the plethora of amazing restaurants in Louisville, I would be happy eating only…
