Burgers for Brunch, Tamales for Lunch

A few weeks ago, my friend Misti and her boyfriend Josh were in town for a music fest, so we met up for brunch at The Liquor Store before they drove back to Fayetteville. 

The Liquor Store had their fall cocktail menu out, so I got a Hard Cider Mimosa with sparkling cider, champagne, and a cinnamon sugar rim. Tasted like falling leaves!

For my entree, I went with the Impossible Burger and Fries. Nothing on their brunch menu is vegan, so I order from the lunch menu when I go there. I don't mind morning burgers! And Liquor Store has the best Impossible burger I've ever had — something in the way they season it.

One of my favorite recent lunches were these Mole Tofu Tamales from Lulu's Cafe & Bakery. Made with blue cornmeal, stuffed with mole tofu, and topped with pickled veggies, cashew cheese, and cherry tomatoes. It doesn't get much better than that.

I also grabbed a Co-op Cookie to go. This was a chocolate chip cookie with potato chips and pretzels mixed in. I love sweet and savory!
