It's National Burrito Day and we're not about to let that go uncelebrated. 🌯

Guadalajara has been wrapping up perfection at all three Charlottesville locations for years. Whether you're team carne asada, carnitas, or grilled veggie, there's a burrito with your name on it today.

Fun fact: the burrito made its U.S. debut in the 1930s at El Cholo Spanish Café in Los Angeles. Almost a century later, we're still obsessed.

Go get wrapped up in something delicious.

Some salads just know what they're doing. 🥗

The Greek Salad at has all the right moves: crispy lettuce, whole kalamata olives (pits and all), chunks of feta cut straight off the block, tangy pepperoncini, and a house Greek dressing that's equal parts zesty and earthy.
Add grilled chicken and warm pita to make it a meal or go rogue with a side of onion rings and tzatziki. Either way, you win.

The ice cream truck of our adult dreams just rolled into Crozet.

🍦☀️

(Kids are welcome too, obviously.)

We stumbled onto ’s opening day and couldn’t have been more delighted. Emily’s serving up simple, classic flavors from the cutest vintage camper, with oldies and beach music playing in the background. It’s summer vibes any time of year.

Cones, cups, waffle cones, all the classic toppings. Hours and locations coming soon, so give her a follow to catch her next pop-up.

Small, woman-owned, and exactly the kind of thing that makes this community so good. Go find her and get a scoop.
