After a short, nearly 4 years without making a podcast, WE ARE BACK! Now that we have 2 kiddos, Minnie and Marigold, we got a babysitter and had a date night at Wichita’s own, Vora Restaurant European, and it was a treat! Thanks for coming back and listening! We are happy to be back!

One of Ben’s favorite breakfast spots in Wichita, at least until we finally get a Waffle House, we brunched at The Egg Crate! A local greasy spoon with a lot of charm and great prices. Home of the MONSTER BURRITO which is everything good in this world.

Today’s episode of Saving Room is about a local Italian restaurant here in Wichita that we absolutely love. We realize we have done a TON of Italian restaurants, but we are almost out of them, so hopefully the next few episodes will be different. A very unassuming restaurant from the outside, but beautiful on the inside, Bella Vita Bistro is incredible food at a reasonable price, and the romantic atmosphere can’t be beat!

Another fun Italian restaurant that is a chain, but not super common. Also, what the heck is Mizithra?! Old Spaghetti Factory is a chain that is only in a handful of cities across the country, but if you ever get a chance to go… well… just listen to the show to see what we think about it and why it is a pretty hip place.  Ben’s first job as a server was at the Old Spaghetti Factory in college!

Crikey, mates! It’s time to hop in the pouch of your trusted kangaroo and hop on over to our latest episode, Outback! Head on a walkabout with Ben and Sally as we eat steak, amazing mac and cheese, and yummy not-rye bread. There was definitely a moment where while Sally was buttering her bread, I told her, “That’s not a knife…. this is a knife.” Authentic Australian cuisine at it’s best!
