GNO: Chapman & Kirby
TGIF! Who’s ready for happy hour on this beautiful Friday?! (raising my hand). A couple of Fridays ago our dear friend, Mariam (fellow newbie blogger), was in town visiting from London so our group of friends planned a much needed GNO to catch up! Our friend suggested the new restaurant Chapman & Kirby Bar + Kitchen located in EADO (or now known as East Village), which opened Summer 2017. This place is huge!

When I arrived there was plenty of street parking…
