Hey there Rehab and Revive readers, Ashlee here. For those of you who don't know me, I'm the office manager here at R+. I don't often come out of my bat cave of an office, but when I heard food was the topic of conversation this week, I decided it was time to emerge.
I don't know about the rest of you, but the one thing I have been dying to do for the last week or so is to go to a restaurant. Almost every day on my drive home from work I think how much I would love to not cook dinner. I hate deciding what to make. And I hate doing dishes even more.
Now I know this is totally a first world problem and to complain about this is rather ridiculous, but I can't help being salty about it. There's just something so wonderful about sitting down at a restaurant and ordering whatever my heart desires.
Luckily, take-out is still a thing. It has been my lifeblood during this time. Although I still have to "do the dishes" by throwing away my containers and painstakingly choose somewhere that has relatively quick delivery, I am so thankful that my favorite places are up and running.
This being said, we here at R+ wanted to share with you some of our favorite diners, drive-ins and dives as well as some amazing companies that are going the extra mile. You'll see our favorites, honorable mentions, and places that are just doing awesome things to help the community.
Even if these places aren't for you, we urge you to shop small and support your favorite local eats!
So take a gander below and see if anything sparks your interest! We may have even thrown in an offer or two for you all! ;)
