As you probably know by now, I’m always on the lookout for great restaurants and bars to share with you. I often find myself at The Fashion Mall in Indianapolis and, if you know this part of town, you’ve probably seen Provision restaurant attached to Ironworks Hotel. The establishment’s second-story deck has caught my eye…
When compared to similarly sized cities like Cincinnati and Louisville, Indianapolis has a notable gap in one specific area — independent bookstores. Jake Budler and Julia Breakey noticed this hole and decided to do something about it. The couple is the driving force behind Tomorrow Bookstore, a welcoming space that aims to build community while…
I grew up going to Walt Disney World Resort and now I love to take my girls as often as I can. Since life isn’t a permanent vacation, though, and I want them to experience destinations outside of Magic Kingdom, too, we don’t always make it to Lake Buena Vista as often as we’d like….
Yelp recently released its list of the Top 50 Speakeasies In the U.S. and Canada and, lo and behold, an Indianapolis establishment made the list. Wiseguy Lounge is showcased at #25. The nod is well-deserved, with the team at Wiseguy serving up incredible cocktails day in and day out. Plus, the ambiance can’t be beat….
If you’re an Indianapolis local on social media lately, you’ve probably seen something about Antilogy. This new Indy-area restaurant has been making waves on Instagram, with diners who visited during its opening week raving about their overall experience. Antilogy is a unique addition to a commercial area that is mostly populated with chain stores and…
If you were to ask my husband and me our favorite shots, I would hands-down say Woodford Reserve and he would immediately answer Don Julio. So it should come as no surprise that as soon as I found out about Agave & Rye’s newest location — it’s first in Indianapolis — I knew I had…
Ever since its revitalization, the Bottleworks District is easily one of my favorite Indianapolis neighborhoods. I’ve taken you inside Bottleworks Hotel before, so I figured it was high time to introduce you to the speakeasy-style spot that’s hidden in plain sight just inside the lobby. When you enter the hotel, it’s easy to miss the…
Within about five minutes of meeting me (or reading my blog), most people figure out that I’m both a Francophile and an art lover. Thus, it should come as no surprise that The Lume at Newfields is one of my favorite indoor activities in the Circle City. The current immersive exhibit, Monet & Friends Alive,…
On Instagram this week, someone told me I’m the “speakeasy girl,” and I can’t say that I mind the moniker. I love taking you inside Deco-inspired bars that transport you to last century, at least for a few hours. Tonight, we’re trekking to Indianapolis’s Fountain Square neighborhood to spend some time at The Brass Ring…
Of all Indianapolis’s suburbs, Greenwood, almost indisputably, has the most “small town” feel. The area is still bordered by farmland, and it feels like you’re miles from civilization just a few minutes out of town (even though you’re actually mere miles from I-65). Main Street is home to the usual suspects — legal offices, a…
