Given up on not being sporadic with these posts, haha. But they’re nice when they happen right??

Apparently Cleveland has some fancy and yummy restaurants. Luckily, Stefuf didn’t let me go to Panera for the millionth time this week and we went to Moxie instead, where the food was SO GOOD. Above is the grilled filet with butternut squash, vermicelli, kale, gruyere “fondue”, winter herbs, and below is the truffle risotto, a dish that was quite delicious and highly recommended by the waiter, though apparently often overlooked.

Strawberry Lava Fudge cupcake from Georgetown Cupcake and Sprinkles’ birthday cupcake! Not a bad haul (especially because they were free!) 

I don’t want to brag, but we’re pretty great at getting free cupcakes ;) #HBDSprinkles #supersecret #georgetowncupcake @hannah.gerdes

Return of the food blog! It’s been a long time…but I can’t think of a better way than rooibos tea from South Africa (thanks Yuxi!) and strawberry and clotted cream shortbread biscuits from Her Majesty in England (thanks Britt!) to start it again :) #adventuresabroad #myfriendsmakemecultured #hoyafoodography #tumblr
