Marlow's Tavern

I headed to Marlow's Tavern over in Lee Vista recently to try their Ribs and Whiskey menu.  And it was delicious!!

The Lee Vista location is new.  It's only been open a few months.  And it feels like a place where all the locals can get together to eat, drink, and be merry.

But on to the food and drinks!  The Ribs & Whiskey menu ends on October 17th so you have one more week to enjoy it!


I started off with the R&W S'Weet Tea which was Deep Eddy Sweet Tea Vodka, Fresh Lemon, Agave Nectar, Topped with a Shot of Shock Top Beer and a Kick of Orange.


I have to admit.  If I can taste the alcohol, I don't really like it.  But this was delicious!  But warning--it packs a punch!

We started off with Blistered Polbano & Jalapeno "Popper-Style" (Roasted Corn, Cheddar, Mozzarella & Provolone and Fresh Herbs with BBQ Ranch for Dippin'.)



I'm also a weakling when it comes to spice.  But there were so many cheeses that I had to try it.  And the spice wasn't overpowering.  In fact, I might have grabbed more after I was done!

For a main entree we had the Slow-Cooked Smithfield James River St. Louis-Style Ribs, Granny Smith Apple Cabbage Slaw, Pimento Cheese "Stuffed" Tater Tots & House-Made Sweet Corn and Jalapeno Muffins.


The ribs were just as good as I thought they'd be!  Delicious!  But the surprise was the slaw.  I'm not a slaw girl, but this one was so perfectly flavored that I ate it all!


We had 3 different sauces to try with our ribs: East Carolina BBQ, Jack Daniels Glaze, and Chiptole BBQ.  My fav was definitely the Jack Daniels Glaze.

We also got to try the Beef & Buns which was 24 Hour Smoked Beef Brisket Sliced Thin Slathered in Jack Daniel Honey Glaze, Granny Smith Apple Cabbage Slaw and Crispy Tobacco Onion on Buttery Onion Roll.


Yum!


For my second drink, I had one off the Girl's Night Out Menu (which I'll get to later).  But it was called the Loco Coco.  Loved it!


And if we weren't full enough, we had to have dessert!


Bourbon Bread Pudding!!  I'm not a bread pudding fan so when we were told that people get angry when this goes away, I just kind of shrugged it off.  Oh but I shouldn't have. The Creme- Brulee-Soaked Cuban Bread with a Splash of Honey Jack, for Sippin' was maybe the biggest surprise of the night for me. The blogger that I was sharing this with had maybe a few bites before she declared she was done.  I couldn't just let it go to waste!  So I did my duty and finished it off!

There are so many great options and things going on at Marlow's Tavern.  General Manager Joel Diaz wants to to be a place that locals look forward to coming to.  They have Girl's Night Out every Wednesday which has 3 appetizers and 3 drinks that aren't on the menu for $5 each.  And every Friday and Saturday night they have live music.


Everyone needs to go try this limited time menu ASAP!  It's gone in a week!  Come #MeetMeAtMarlows !

Global Energy Race--Free Entry!



This Sunday, September 25th,  Orlando will host the Global Energy Race, which benefits in part the Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida. 

37 cities around the world, in 22 countries, will be participating in this race.  Bimbo Bakeries USA, is the US host with 4 cities in America.  Runners will be working to "stomp out hunger" as they run.  For each kilometer run by each participant, Bimbo Bakeries USA will donate two slices of bread to a Feeding America food bank, or a loaf of bread per 10k.

The race, which has a 10k race and a 3k race,  will also be a Guiness World Records attempt for the most number of cities participating in the same race on the same day.  First place male and female runners of the 10k will receive an all expenses paid trip to ANY 2017 Global Energy Race participating city (side note, when I registered, it said that to win the trip, you must be wearing the race shirt at the race. So if you're speedy, make sure you consider that.)  Awards will be given to the top three male and female runners in each city.  10k runners will receive medals and 3k runners will receive pins.  Starting this year, both the t-shirts and medals will be part of a series, with this year being from Beijing.

Interested in running for free??  Yes, I just signed up and there was no cost!!  Go here to register and use code BIMBOBLOGGIVEAWAY.  I'll see you on Sunday--lets "stomp out hunger"!!

Friday--rest

We signed the contract to build a new house!!  We've been looking for 5 years and it's finally done! (well, we have to wait for the house to be built, but you know what I mean!)  I'm so excited!  Hopefully we'll be moved in by the end of September!

Thursday--rest

I took Faith over to see the house we liked and to take more pictures.

Then Kory and I headed to the Studios.  We ate dinner at the Hollywood Brown Derby out on their new patio bar.  Then we headed over to the Streets of America to say goodbye since it's being demolished.  Sigh.  I'm not happy about the changes.  The park will no longer be what it was created to be.  It makes me sad.


Then we watched the Star Wars fireworks before they change it up.  I'm not a Star Wars fan but it was neat to see them over my ride and the actual fireworks were pretty cool.


Friday--rest

We had dinner then took Bella to Jeremiah's Italian Ice.  She even got a pup cup!

Kory and I went to go ask some more questions about the house and ask about how to go about signing the contract.  Only to find out that it had sold that morning.  I was really upset.  Thankfully the sales guy emailed me a few hours later with an even better floor plan.  While it would unfortunately mean having to wait another 6 or so months, it will be exciting to watch our house built from the ground up.  We're hoping to get that approved and sign a contract!

We headed to out to run errands and ate at Zaxbys.

Then it was bed time since we had to be up early for the race.

Sunday--Asheville Marathon.  26.38 miles in 5:57:14 Hardest and most miserable race of my life. Constant hills. Pouring rain. Dirt roads after mile 8 which equaled slippery mud.

The race was seriously the hardest thing I've ever done.  I'm so glad that I had Faith by my side!

After the race we got a wonderful massage then headed back to the room because we were disgustingly filthy and muddy.  After showering and a quick rest, we decided to have a drink in the hotel bar, the Red Stag Grill, and there was a cheese plate so I had to get it.



Then we went to the Cantina and had a feast of chips and salsa, guacamole, queso, and a grilled avocado.  I enjoyed a margarita and Faith had a beer flight.


Then we headed back to the hotel because we were exhausted.
