Korner Kafe in Union had been on my to-try list for quite some time.

I had read about it being a unique restaurant in Union, and I had wanted to try it ever since.

When Kayla and I ventured to the area to climb Hanging Rock, we stopped here for lunch.

The restaurant is homey, comfy and serves homestyle meals.

You can get breakfast all day.

But on this day, I was feeling lunch.

One of my favorite things on the menu was the BBQ sandwich - and I could get it with a side of chicken tenders!

What's your favorite thing here?

Ignore this goober here.

Who can pass up a sweet treat?

Not me, that's for sure.

When I saw "A Piece of Cake" in Rock, I had to make a stop.

The bakery had a bit of eery dessert lining its counter: cupcakes, cookies and more.

I set my sights on a brownie, covered in chocolate and sprinkles.

Have you been here?

I've previously been to The Rambling Root to enjoy dinner and drinks. But, recently, they starting brewing their very own beer and I had to get their branded growler to add to my collection.

While I was there, they had their "regular beer" which is a cream ale, as well as a Double IPA. So I went with the Regular Beer to take home. Have you had one yet?

I'll admit, I'm not quite sure what to make of kombucha.

I've tried it elsewhere and didn't have much of a taste for it.

And, upon reading more about it, I worried if it was safe to drink.

Fortunately, when you walk into Bucha Brewhouse & Bistro in Princeton - they tell you right off the bat what it is.

It originated in China in 221 BC. It's a lightly fermented beverage made from sweet tea or coffee and a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. 

The space is so neat, with the original built-ins from its past life as a clothing store.

I ordered the "mango" kombucha.

And, I did a half soup, half sandwich lunch.

Half a grilled cheese, and half Spanish rice soup.



What's your favorite?

A new Princeton restaurant is combining two classics: pizza and Italian beef.

Slice Italian Beef & Pizza has your classic pies, but it also has sandwiches like the Chicago favorite Italian beef; the Elvis with banana, peanut butter and jelly; bratwurst; hot dogs; and Philly cheesesteaks.

After looking over the menu, though, I had to go with a jumbo pepperoni roll.

It was stuffed with cheese, with marinara on the side.


This is definitely a whole-meal roll.

Look at that beauty.
