Hard to pick just one: Poole’s Diner feels like home, Brewery Bhavana’s flower & book shop and NOW Weaver Street Market

Where do you go to treat yourself?

To Boulted Bread for a ham and cheese croissant

 

Do you have a hidden gem?

My massage therapist, Zach McKinney

 

Chargrill or Snoopy’s?

Both? A Char-grill grilled cheese and Snoopy’s hotdogs

 

What about a coffee shop? What’s your order?

I usually make coffee at home or grab one from Whole Foods, but I love to treat myself to one of the many coffee soda combinations at Jubala.

Grabbing lunch? Where do you go?

Player’s Retreat—Hawaiian Burger without a bun

 

You just got off work—where do you grab a drink?

Person Street Bar for an Aperol Spritz or Greyhound
