  2. Had a Friday off and headed to @bearcatnola hoping to sneak in with no wait. Unfortunately there was still a 20 min wait even on Friday which speaks to their excellence! Tried something new today, brisket mash with an egg in the hole. This was my first egg in the hole experience and wow I really enjoyed it. The surrounding toast was flavorful, drawing from a strong multigrain flour, this tasted like it was freshly ground and formed just before becoming my toast. The egg nestles inside the toast creating almost a poached texture. Brisket is always a way to elevate your breakfast meats and it certainly works here. From a place that always brings the flavor, the brisket did not disappoint. Well seasoned, chopped up then almost recooked in a vacas fritas style, an excellent accompaniment to delicious eggs and toast. Bearcat’s crispy potatoes are exactly what I look for. Perfectly crispy and soft on the inside once you crunch through on your first bite. Excellently seasoned to add bold spiciness. I love when you get a smaller piece that is a little well done and all crisp. It really can’t be done better. Was feeling hungry so a side of blueberry pancakes made an appearance. Fluffy and soft, they practically melt in your mouth. A nice crunch on a few of the thin edges is always fun. Delicate sweetness, paired with a syrup that I think was fruit based, it complimented the pancakes well and was sweet and fresh. Always an amazing experience at @bearcatnola, everything was packed with flavor and cooked superbly! Always worth the wait!

  2. BOOZY PUSHPOPS! 🤩😍⁣ When Buzzpop Cocktails reached out to me to try their alcohol filled push pops, I was excited af. 🥰BUT could the boozy popsicles really live up to my childhood memories? I was definitely skeptical.🤔 ⁣ ⁣ As soon as I pushed up a mango passion fruit flavored pop, I knew. I knew I had stumbled upon something great. Feeling like a kid again, but with the benefit of getting tipsy? Yeah, I’m so down!⁣ ⁣ As I kept trying more flavors, each was better than the next! My favorite? Caribbean Breeze, which tastes like pineapple heaven + some rum to get ya going. 🍍⁣ ⁣ The current flavors are:⁣ 🥭 Mango Passion Fruit ⁣ 🌊 Caribbean Breeze⁣ 🍑 Southern Belle ⁣ 🍸 Moscow Mule⁣ 🍫 Chocolate Raspberry⁣ 💙 Blueberry Mojo⁣ ⁣ Which one is pulling on your heartstrings? 💞⁣ ⁣ These pops are filled with flavor, fat free and less than 100 calories each. They’re 10% alcohol by volume and filled with premium liquor (yeah you’re getting the good stuff 😜)⁣ ⁣ All of this to say, I highly recommend Buzzpop Cocktails. Perfect for your next beach trip, whenever you want to feel like a kid again (with the perk of gettin tipsy), or sunny Sunday balcony chillin 😎 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #nolafoodbabe #testkitchentaylor #foodie #nolatakeout #takeoutnola #covid #shoplocal #foodphotography #foodporn #yum #food #recipe #foodblog #frenchquarter #neworleans #nola #louisiana #drink #drinkingnola #pushpop #popsicle #alcoholicpushpop #BuzzpopCocktails #drunk #bikini
