We had a lazy Sunday afternoon, and to be honest, I wish they all could be that way. A late afternoon lunch-dinner, “linner”? sounded perfect, so on our way to do some grocery shopping we stopped in at Bonaventura Italian Deli. Like many restaurants in Newberg, we’d driven by but just hadn’t stopped yet. On weekends it’s always busy and has a great street presence with outdoor seating.
The Renaissance Man loves his ice cream, and when we learned about the Jem 100 Ice Cream Saloon in Newberg, we had to go investigate!
And that’s when it happened. Black. Licorice. Ice. Cream.
I’ve been driving by Recipe, A Neighborhood Kitchen almost every single day since we moved to Dundee. I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve leaned over to take a look out the car window and suggest to The Renaissance Man, “We really need to try that place.” Recipe is located in a beautifully restored Victorian house on the corner of OR99W & Washington Street in Newberg, Oregon and it certainly catches your eye as you drive through town.
Thursday night was the kickoff to our Memorial Day Weekend! The Renaissance Man and I both took Friday off work so that we could maximize our weekend, be on the look out for upcoming yard improvement posts. To celebrate we decided to try out the Babica Hen Café. Driving by on OR99W, you’ll notice their large vegetable garden and friendly chickens.
Since moving to Dundee we’ve eaten a fair share of meals at Red Hills Market. The first week we moved in we slept on the floor (because the furniture hadn’t arrived yet), and ate at Red Hills Market every. single. night! It was wonderful, and a memory I hold onto with love.
