After dropping our little one off at preschool yesterday, my husband and I decided to duck into this trendy cafe in downtown Winder. As soon as you step through the doors into the corridor, it's like you're transported into the big city. It has an old Hollywood feel with gorgeous modern crystal light fixtures, the natural charm of wood paneling, and beautiful marble columns. A fully stocked bar sits behind the barista; I could only imagine the hustle and bustle of the restaurant at night as he took our order. And the wine vault is a true spectacle to behold: imagine a bank vault filled to the absolute brim full of the most delicious wine! We will have to go back for dinner for sure! Anyway, I'm veering off course! The man behind the counter was so friendly, and we ended up sharing a mutual love for carrot cake! I ordered a Dirty Chai Tea Latte, a carrot cake muffin, and a lemon poppyseed scone because when in Rome right?! The carrot cake muffin was pretty much the stuff of dreams. It tasted rich and delicious while still not being overly sweet. The lemon poppyseed was good, but I had trouble finding the lemon flavor. The dirty chai was absolute perfection though. The perfect balance of coffee with the slight sweetness of the chai. Plus it looked beautiful when it came out major bonus points! As you all know, the most important thing I look for when choosing a restaurant to eat at is its health score, and this place nails it because it currently has a 100 A! If you have a chance to visit the cafe, please do. You will not be disappointed. The service is top notch, and the food and drinks are delish! We will definitely be visiting during restaurant hours soon, and I'll make sure to update with my review! In the meantime, if you see me noshing on a pastry there, feel free to say hello! read more
