SIF Saveur . . . We officially now have a love/hate relationship with @willgormanmusic. We love him because the first time we saw the homey tickle a church organ, he played like a young Donny Hathaway; we now hate him because he recommended @joestogosyracuse, and we just can’t get enough of it (which causes weight gain). When it comes to food we tend to follow two things: signs and long lines, and Joe’s had both. From the moment we walked in and heard @evelynchampagneking on the sound system, and smelled the shrimp and grits, we understood why there was a crowd at the counter. Is there anything better than an unpretentious joint, serving comfort food with a smile? Reminded us of those old M&M soul food joints in El-Lay from back in the day. Can wait for @pessoblanci, @cfac or @fitover50bygk to have this group provide the craft service for their next video or event. . . . #excusemewhileitakeanap #siesta #lunchbreak #comfortfood #top5wingsinthecity #lettheevidencespeak #tasteofsyracuse #sifsaveur #dazzlingdiscoveries #templeofmygastronomy #nofoodpixnecessary #didsomeoneputafootinthis #willyouoweusagymmembership

Chavis & Chavis, Creole Soul

Chavis & Chavis, Creole Soul

Let’s call this value added. We were impressed to see the live art fundraiser and performance by Dakaro last night, an event that benefited the Good Life Youth Foundation and the Dunbar (Center). But we were equally blown away by the tasty treats provided by Creole Soul: Their bread pudding can best be described as fluffdillyicious.

Goodway Bakery

We wondered why this couple from Goodway Bakery gave out free samples of their rum cakes.  But truthfully, once you had a taste of the buttery smooth concoction, it was almost impossible not to buy one. That or keep waking by to pick up another sample.  Both the free prize and their overall ebullience made their booth very popular on Friday evening.
