I wanted to create this blog for a few reasons. First and foremost, to share tips, tricks, and knowledge about the food and beverage industry in general but also to help people see a different side of the restaurant world. Every restaurant has a totally unique culture and world within it. I want to help open people’s eyes to more than how fast the service is or how easy or hard it is to secure a reservation.
So, thanks for stopping by! I welcome your ideas, input, and feedback and hope you enjoy!
Eat well & travel often,
Becky McKinney

There are tons of different Christmas traditions around the world that include things like games, songs, gifts and dance, but my favorite traditions are edible traditions. Stollen is a traditional German Christmas bread that is full of roasted pecans, candied fruit and pump raisins with a piece of marzipan running through the center. The loaves are brushed with melted butter and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar before being covered in powdered sugar. Sounds delicious, doesn’t it? We make and offer Stollen every Christmas season in the bakery and print that exact mini description right on our label, but today, I thought I’d go deeper and share the full story behind it.
