Savannah Eats, Laughs and Drinks

1970 vodka
Rise Biscuits and Doughnuts
The 1970 vodka cocktail is delicious! I met the owner, Ikeda Feingold; and I really like the flavor of the vodka which has 19 ingredients including fruit and botanicals. It’s also 70 proof. Plus, the branding and look of the bottle are super cool.
April 27th- April 29th Gypsy World is having a Vintage Extravaganza sale at 2503 Larkin Avenue.
Rocket Fizz, a soda pop and candy shop is opening on East Broughton St.  I have been to the one in Marietta, Georgia. It’s a fun place to get unusual candy and soda.
Rise Biscuits and Doughnuts is coming soon to Savannah on West Broughton Street.  I can’t wait to taste their doughnuts.

This week is jam-packed.

African American artist Nick Cave exhibition is opening this week at The Jepson. His soundsuit exhibit is super cool.
