Congrats to Chip and Kim Ladigo on announcing their second 🌮 🌮🌮@tacos4lifegrill, scheduled to open mid-2020 at @shoparboretumnc. For every taco, salad, quesadilla, rice bowl, or nachos, that are sold, 24 cents is donated to @FMSC_Org, Tacos 4 Life’s nonprofit partner. FMSC and Tacos 4 Life work together to coordinate numerous MobilePacks across the country where guests and volunteers come together to pack the MannaPack meals that are sent to children in need in over 70 different countries. ⭐️ Mark your calendar – the next one in the region is May 1 - 2 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord!⭐️ Since their first location opened in Concord less than two years ago, the restaurant and its guests recently raised over ONE MILLION MEALS! Can’t wait to see the good they continue to do when they open their doors at the Arboretum! _ _ _ #tacos #FMSC #taco #shoparboretumnc #cltfoodie #instafood #tacolover #tacosarelife #foodlover #mobilepack

Perfect way to spend the first Friday of 2020.

On Dec. 14, @mcninch_house_restaurant will offer an authentic experience straight out of an earlier era with High Tea, 1-3 pm. Guests will be served on antique china at a table set with antique silver and enjoy some of the same small indulgences that have become de rigueur at this very English ritual. Reservations can be made by calling 704.332.6159 or emailing [email protected]. Limited space available. 📸 @poprockphotography _ _ _ #hightea #mcninchhouse #clthistory #charlottenc #southernhistory #charlottehistory #preservecharlotte #cltnc #preservehistory #clteats #charlottesgotalot #eatclt #queencity #uptownclt #clteats #cltdining #charlottefood #bestfoodcharlotte #cltfoodie #nceats

Whirlwind weekend in NYC with @mboudin and @gabiculpepper included a surprise opportunity to see @hudsonyardsgrill #Chef de cuisine @bmottola1018 in action, made possible by @jmott56. Always love following the careers of the many talented chefs with who I’ve been lucky enough to work.

I took this photo of @riverboatronhc and Chef David Lucarelli back in 2016. I’m a fan of Coach Rivera, which doesn’t make a lot of sense because I’m not a huge football fan. I was surprised how sad I was to learn he’ll no longer be with the @panthers. Although I don’t know him, my sense is that he is a helluva man and a true class act- the type of person this world could use more of.
