Body Worlds In Charlotte


I finally made it out to the Body Worlds exhibition this weekend, and it was amazing. One of our fellow bloggers already wrote about it, but I couldn't help but mention how amazing the exhibition really was.

Charlotte's Fig Tree Restaurant


One of Charlotte's finest dining establishments, Fig Tree is a perfect dinner selection for a casual business night out or a more formal date. Combining fine dining with the aesthetics of a comfortable, remodeled old home, it is as unique in atmosphere as it is in cuisine. While the food, which tends towards the French in its inspiration, is complex enough to please even the swankiest gourmand, it is ...

Charlotte Wine Tastings


Each Friday, Reid's Fine Foods of Charlotte hosts wine tastings of four special wines selected that week. The price of the tasting is determined by the week's selections; however, they offer you three options for the tasting to suit any budget or alcohol consumption style.

 Reid's is a rare find in Charlotte, which is a bit lacking in the gourmet grocery department, and these wine tastings are excellent and informative. The wines ...

Bojangles! A Charlotte Classic!


Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, Bojangles is a cheap, countrified fast food chain that is omnipresent here in Charlotte. They're like the Starbucks in Manhattan...you can barely cross an intersection without finding a Bojangles.

Bojangles is located primarily in the Southeast. If you're from the area, you may wonder, "Why in the world is this chick blogging about Bojangles?" If you're not from here, you're thinking, "What's Bojangles?"If you're from the ...

Kristopher's Bar and Restaurant in Matthews


I went to Kristopher's Bar and Restaurant in Matthews tonight, and it was a great spot for a girl's night out. Drinks are reasonable, the environment is laid-back and fun, and the staff was friendly.

 Located at 250 North Trade St. in Matthews, it's a few miles out from downtown Charlotte, but it's in an area of Matthews that's worth the trek to see. Located on a charming block ...
