Here’s an idea…go try dining at the newer place to eat in the Magnolia Village. Chef Greg Campbell’s kitchen specializes in good honest food. Salads like romaine maytag blue cheese vinaigrette, smoked bacon & apple and arugula with lemon vinaigrette & mancheggo cheese. Soup’s range from butternut squash to clam chowder. There are sandwiches like roasted pork & chicken salad and burgers. There is an Alley Hour on Tuesdays and Fridays 3:30 – 5:30 with specials $1 off Beer & Wine. Fonte coffee and assorted Harney & Sons tea is on the menu. Sweets are bread pudding and chocolate pot de creme which is out of my area of expertise.

Halloween is approaching so don’t forget that Magnolia businesses open there doors to trick or treating. Families are encouraged to visit store fronts around the village and pick up candy for the holiday. There are many homes within walking distance of the village with walk scores exceeding 80 points. www.cooperjacobs.com  While exploring Magnolia, maybe a curious visit to Wheeler Street Kitchen is the stop you need to make.
