Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

If you haven’t heard about all the new offerings you gotta watch our video this evening.

We ran into Eileen from Gloucester Bites too!

Sunday Brunch At 525 Magnolia!

Posted on by Pat D

Friends from New York were visiting for the day so we met them at the 525 in Magnolia for their new brunch! It was a great excuse to relax, laugh and enjoy our meals served by Stella (thanks Stella!). We had the quiche, breakfast tacos, eggs benedict and French toast. Oh yes, and then there was the coffee ……. Great take on brunch. The regular menu is also available. The Jazz Brunch will be returning in early April, so stay tuned. PS: it’s super easy to make online reservations! Thanks Erin, Paul, Jake and Keirsten! According to them (and ourselves): 100% recommended.

An afternoon at Appleton Farms, Ipswich

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

On Saturday, Appleton Farms at Maple Sugar Day.  We were able to see the tapping of the trees and how they boil it.  It smelt wonderful.  Appleton Farms has beautiful trails as well.  Very enjoyable and do not forget to shop in the farm store.
