Must Eats in Sarasota

This week I wanted to share a few of my must haves when it comes to visiting home! Whether you are visiting or even if you are an SRQ local these are some places to check out! So lets talk about food!

First off if you are a cheese and charcuterie lover like myself don’t sleep on Charcuterie & Cheese Sarasota! Shannon is amazing and makes the most amazing boxes and boards for any occasion! Perfect for a hotel stay, beach day, or any day really I can’t recommend her enough! She does an amazing job featuring amazing meats, cheeses, savory and sweet and this is an absolute must for me now when I visit home! It is such a treat!

Next let’s talk donuts! Who don’t love a good donut for breakfast or dessert? Sarasota has tons of amazing breakfast spots but if you’re in the mood for an amazing donut look no further because Five-O donuts are the most amazing things ever! They offer classic as well as super special donuts and I can’t recommend them enough if you want a special treat!

Third spot I want to share with you is a hidden gem, Whitney’s on Longboat Key! This one is the most picturesque restaurant ever! The colors are amazing and even if you just need a good photo head out that way but I promise you the food is a must too! They have great options for breakfast and lunch and some fun drinks also! The service is amazing and it’s a spot you don’t want to miss out on!

Let me know if you happen to check out one of my favorite spots! I would love to know what you think!

Bottomless Brunch with The Fountain Kitchen & Wine Bar

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

This past weekend Travis and I had the opportunity to attend Bottomless Brunch at The Fountain Kitchen & Wine Bar in Sarasota! We are huge foodies and love brunch so of course we were super excited to start off our Saturday with some yummy food and drinks!

If you have never been, The Fountain Kitchen & Wine Bar is quite literally located right behind a fountain and is located in the historic district of Sarasota, FL. The location itself if perfection located among super cute shops and businesses, this is a great brunch spot! The restaurant has a great patio space, perfect for when the weather is nice, we really enjoyed it! The inside is chic as well with a modern feel and focus on the bar and the wine on the walls, it’s so fun and different! Anyways, let’s talk drinks, first off the bottomless drinks are amazing and you have the option of mimosas or bellinis (my personal favorite). Next up the food, y’all the food what AMAZING! The menu is simple with something for everyone, whether you like sweet, savory, or classic there is something for you! I chose to go with the french toast with fresh berries and bacon, which was some of the best french toast I have ever had! It was perfectly soft and fluffy and the berries and cream were a perfect pairing! Travis ordered the breakfast pizza, if was more than a personal size and topped with eggs, bacon, breakfast potatoes, cheese and onion, it was Travis approved and he finished the whole thing! To top it all off the service was amazing! Our glasses were never empty and we were always taken care of!

So needless to say we had a great time at brunch on Saturday not only were the food and bottomless drinks amazing, the ambiance was so calming and easy going! It was so easy to enjoy ourselves and take our time sipping our drinks and relaxing on the patio! I would highly recommend checking them out for your next brunch!
