It’s hard to believe it’s in the 70s at the end of October! I came out to enjoy coffee on our back patio late this morning and couldn’t believe how nice it was outside. 😩 Coffee is the one thing my tastebuds have not adjusted back to since I lost my sense of taste and smell but I’m trying to bee 🐝 positive and remind myself that it will come back soon. And… to be careful what I wish for bc I was saying at the beginning of October I really should cut back on my coffee intake and how conveniently coffee doesn’t taste as good😅😂. Hoping your enjoying what’s left of this beautiful week and that your coffee tastes extra great this week ☕️ 🍂

Was driving home from work a different way than usual that took me directly through Powder Mill Park. It’s been 10 years since I’ve been at the fish hatchery 😅 the last time was for a prom I was attending!

The fish hatchery in powder mill is one of those things I forget exists… but it’s a great free / low cost thing to do near Rochester!

Swipe all the way through to check out my last minute $40 on clearance gown I grabbed a week before the prom and the last time I was at the fish hatchery. 😂

This may sound silly but I’m noticing more and more that people don’t know what my first name is. 😅 My mom came up with the name and to be fair she also came up with mg first name, but many people don’t realize that the “with Hope” part in ROCthecitywithHope means with me… Hope. So, if you didn’t know, now you know. 😂 Let me know in the comments if you caught what my first name was before I told ya!

“Come for the food, stay for the spirits”

Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting Union Tavern Sea Breeze! They have been on my list to visit since they opened in 2019 because of their haunting experiences! The building was first home to a Great Lakes pirate and has a tunnel in the basement that is sealed off. It is believed to go right out to the bay as a secret pirate tunnel, and was potentially a stop on the Underground Railroad, used to help escaped enslaved people so they could secretly go out to the bay and travel to Canada.

Aside from the history and the stories of the building, I was most excited about their free-spirited cocktails! It is always nice to enjoy a fancy drink, and you shouldn’t need alcohol to be fancy! We went on Tuesday for their $10 burger night but you can’t go wrong with a visit any night of the week!

It is also good to note they offer Sunday Brunch, catered in-house events, and will have tons of events this October for spooky season. �

Monuments by Craig Walsh at Rochester Fringe Festival happening every night from 8-10 til September 23! Our Uber dropped us off super close to the trees and it wasn’t until we stepped back we could really appreciate the piece! In my opinion it was best viewed from the sidewalk on East Ave. 😇 For GPS directions put in Third Presbyterian Church, 4 Meigs St, (right at the corner of Meigs and East!)

Wondering where to head after work? You’ve gotta check out Happy Hour at Salena's Mexican Restaurant! Their happy hour at the bar is from 3 - 6 every day and all day on Wednesdays! Happy hour specials include buy-one-get-one specials on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. $4 house margaritas and $2 drafts on Friday and Saturday! I had the frozen white peach margarita and it was personally my fav margarita I’ve had in a long time. You can also grab bar treats while you’re there to pair with your happy hour drinks!

We enjoyed happy hour so much that we had to stay for dinner. And I mean, how can you not when their patio is so beautiful?! We tried the Elote Corn Ribs as an appetizer, and then I as a creature of habit, had to get the Chimichangas. Now, whatever you do, you must save room for their cookie dough fried ice cream!

When I was a food tour guide, we stopped at Salena’s as a part of our tour, so I have had Salena’s multiple times before and I have never left feeling my meal was anything but delicious. When I was leaving, I ran into the owner, Kelly and she said she hoped I enjoyed my meal. I told her I honestly always enjoy my meal when I am at Salena’s! So, if you’ve never been, make sure to head over, and if you have been, make sure to stop back for a visit soon!
