Happy Labor Day Weekend! I hope you all get the chance to relax and try some new restaurants. Larder Delicatessen & Bakery is one to add to your list- and heading into Cleveland this weekend seeing the Blue Angels practicing was so cool! Larder started in 2018, and is James Beard Award nominated ( a HIGH honor for a chef or restaurant). They’re famous for their pastrami sandwiches, but they have chicken, fish, and vegan options- tons of sides, and pickled everything! My mom loved the pickled watermelon. They also make sodas in house and you can add egg cream- I had a spiced plum one- so refreshing. Their baked goods are beautiful, I got a slice of chocolate babka- it was MASSIVE! I went next door to Rising Star and grabbed a coffee for the babka. This restaurant is located in Hingetown, the vibe is awesome! And the restaurant is in an old firehouse. We walked and saw shops around and saw homes. I felt like I was in the south with some of these gorgeous older homes- the woodwork on some of them was amazing. Have you been to Larder?
