Tomas’s 5-star review: Love Love Love. I was obsessed with this space when it was Longway Tavern, so when I found out they were shutting their doors it definitely bummed me out. After a few (much anticipated) months, the phoenix has risen and from the ashes is The Will & The Way aka TWTW. I love how they have added different touches to differentiate the two concepts and it wasn't simply a slap of a new name. The drink menu and bite menu is still fantastic, but there's a different approach for the F&B program. As always, TWTW is very accommodating for allergens so that's always a win for me. Their brussel sprouts were diving and everyone, I mean everyone, has to order them. My go-to drink from their signature cocktail menu is the Floston Paradise. Just order a round and you'll be thanking me later. Their food menu is on the chalkboard wall behind ya just fyi! -

Tomas’s 4-star review: Definitely commend Sleep Rite for conducting my sleep study and doing everything necessary to get the proper results. I've always had issues with sleeping so I decided to finally get one done and ask my general doctor for a referral. Make sure to give Sleep Rite a call as I didn't receive a call to make my appointment. It wasn't until I tried about two times to get a hold of someone properly was I able to get penciled in. There's a few things to know when preparing for your sleep study here. -Bring a comforter or your blankets (and sheets even) since the ones they provide aren't hotel grade. Definitely more so hospital vibes with the bedding. -There are two bed pillows they provide but I luckily brought my own. This is also key for folks who like to sleep with a few pillows and one in-between their legs for all of my fellow side sleepers. -Can't drink alcohol or caffeine after 12pm the day of your study -Minimal water and no other liquids after 5pm the day of your study -Wear pajamas you don't mind being watched in. They have to monitor you overnight so be conscious of that. You check-in the night of your sleep study at 8pm and are kept overnight until 5pm. They'll run down everything with you and let you know what to expect. For those of us who wake up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, there is medical staff working overnight so simply speak out loud when you need assistance and someone will be there to assist. They have a way to unhook all the wires without having to replace them on your skin. It takes some getting used to sleeping with the wires but you can be on your phone, watch tv, or use your phone until you fall asleep. I'll be going back for my CPAP study since I now have been officially diagnosed with sleep apnea so let's see how that one unfolds. -

Tomas’s 5-star review: #VeganFriendly #WomanOwned #AsianOwned A big fan of their frozen mango lemonade! Popbar offers gelato and sorbet based gourmet pops which you can then add a plethora of toppings to make it unique and fun. There isn't seating available but lucky for the city you should honestly be taking a stroll throughout the quarter with it. All the flavors are so fresh and they make these pops in-house which is impressive!! -
Tomas’s 5-star review: Came to visit their newest location in the area and grabbed a quick 5 for $10 street tacos. I love I can choose as many meats I want and do a mix and match moment. Decided to go with two pastor, two suadero, and one arrachera. Pastor is marinated pork cut straight from the trompo! Love that it's served with pineapple and trompo is a cooking method on it's own. Pretty cool machine to be honest and a great indicator that it's the real deal. Suadero is almost butter like in the sense it falls apart and is so tender. It's a style of brisket that is perfection. Arrachera is a skirt angus steak grilled so this is a great option if you have a very picky eater with you. I'll definitely be back! -

Tomas’s 5-star review: Proud to support a #BlackOwned #WomanOwned business that is welcoming to everyone and anyone, including the LGBTQIA+ Community, as well as, the BIPOC community. TL;DR: Come asap and get the damn flowers! I also recommend calling ahead and describing what type of arrangement(s) you need so she can make them for you ahead of time. // I have never seen such florals in my life that were so captivating I found myself simply staring at the wall in awe. Recently made the trip to visit Blucid Florals in the Lower Ninth Ward. Had the chance to meet Brandi, owner and founder of Blucid Floral. After seeing her beautiful works of floral art via social media, I knew I needed to make a trip and go get an arrangement for myself. Parking isn't too bad as you're allowed to park on the left side of the building in the grassy lot which is a solid save since street parking is somewhat limited. Variety of stems were available to have a "build your own bouquet" ranging from $4-$7 a stem and the best part is Brandi will wrap them in her signature black and white stripe bouquet paper (it's plastic and doesn't get all damp!) and hand tied with a piece of burlap string. It's hella cute y'all. I was able to take them home and keep them in water until it was time to give them to my partner. Selfishly had them for two days beforehand and I'll do it again lmao. The bouquet was arranged so pretty and had some nice greenery in it. I really appreciated how Brandi broke down the pricing and explained how floral pricing works for higher end flowers and fillers. She does not play y'all, I've had my flowers for a little under a week and they're still thriving! Some flowers she features are lilly, ranunculus, various colors of roses, and way to many to mention. But many were the first time I had ever seen in my life. I felt like pretty woman at the high end boutique but with amazing customer service! The colors and vibrancy of her flowers are out of this world and the bloom on each stem was crazy beautiful. They weren't withering nor "ble", I know it's not descriptive but we have all seen flowers were they weren't given the proper love and nurture. Before COVID-19, Brandi was more in the large scale floral productions for corporate events and weddings; however, she soon realized that her needs were to open up her doors and provide an opportunity for the community to have a splash of color and benefit from the positive aspects of being in close proximity to florals. When I first walked in there was a bouquet pre-made for a client and it was gorgeous. I was about to take a picture but alas it was too late since the client arrived within two minutes lol. Brandi does not play y'all! She has a very loyal customer base who come in frequently, it also doesn't hurt she has a loyalty program. You can also grab bundles of eucalyptus for around $8 if I'm correct. You just have to hope she still has some when you get there lol. There's something so soothing about this space and it honestly has to do with the energy Blucid Floral produces. Fun Fact- Brandi is also in a second line. She is a great advocate for local businesses as she allows businesses and entrepreneurs to promote themselves with their business cards at check-out. I'm sold and I'll now be coming back here for various reasons. You can also purchase vases and a few other knick knacks. -
Tomas’s 5-star review: Such a f*#king cool concept! The Business Bar is a #BlackOwned #WomanOwned establishment and it's amazing to see what they're bringing to Freret Street. The Business Bar is a fusion of a co-op space and restaurant so you can literally be here from morning to night if you needed a semi-permanent space for the day. I came in the morning so I enjoyed a bowl of their very berry business oatmeal and just about licked the bowl clean. Filling and a healthy option so it was a win in my book. The cold brew wasn't to my personal preference; however, maybe it's an opportunity for them to connect with Mojo down the street! The first 90 minutes are complementary if you're coming in to co-op and there are plenty of outlets throughout The Business Bar. After that your food & beverage spend is applied to the duration of your stay so if you munch and imbibe throughout your stay it all balances out. You're asked at the very beginning if you plan just to dine-in or co-op and they then break down everything for you. Make sure to grab a cocktail here as they're not only from Justinis; however, the attention to details is super cute. They use office supplies to hold up the garnishes! I also can't wait to try their frose on a future visit. You can easily hold a conversation here and the music is fire. I'll definitely be back! -
