It’s been a busy couple weeks and I haven’t had a chance to share everything that I’ve been up to, so I thought I would do a quick roundup.

I had the pleasure of trying a few new restaurants; the Sanctuary on Washington Avenue near the Guthrie and Bradstreet Crafthouse Restaurant at the Graves Hotel. The Sanctuary food was simply delicious. Honestly…if you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend it. You can see that I would have licked my ice cream bowl clean, but that just wouldn’t have been polite. For more photos and to read the full review, click here.

The Bradstreet Crafthouse Restaurant was a solid experience, but the cocktails elevated it to a higher recommendation. Have a seat at the bar and get ready to experience some high quality cocktails. For more photos and to read the full review, click here.

I also made a few dishes at home. One was a hit, my favorite pork tenderloin with tomato jam (that I made this summer and froze so I could enjoy the taste of summer in the depths of winter) but the other two dishes, curried root vegetable soup and shrimp coconut curry still need a little work. They were tasty, but they didn’t blow me away.

Oh, that’s right…you were wondering about the burlesque part…I know how your mind works. Since you asked…I also had the opportunity to photograph The Underpants Show on Friday night at Bryant Lake Bowl. A hilarious variety and burlesque show featuring all types of talents. The show is monthly and is definitely worth checking out. More photos and review is linked here.
