Mouthwatering Specialty Food in Virginia Beach

I have been wanting to try FTH Pizza for a couple of years. After enjoying it today, I wish had stopped by earlier. It was very good--maybe the best pizza I've tried in Williamsburg. Using a wood fire oven, FTH Pizza's pies convey that fired taste. I purchased the Margarita Pizza, and I really enjoyed the sauce. It contains the right amount of sweetness. This pizza also was not very cheesy, which is perfect for me!One of my favorite parts of a pizza is the air bubbles. It's crazy. I can't get enough of them! While my pizza had sufficient bubbles to delight, a couple were burnt from the fire. If you like bubbles like I do, ask for them to watch heat on the bubbles.For $12, I received a delicious pizza that added sunshine to a cloudy day!I have heard that they may sell out of their pizza dough before their posted closing hours, so I recommend going early.

It's been a while since I visited the Peanut shop. The variety of peanuts are amazing. I noticed that glazed or cinnamon glazed pecans, chocolate covered almonds, cashews, and other snack items are available. One thing that is missing is the chance to taste most if not all the different types of peanuts before buying. The taste test is now limited and on the side of the cashier's counter. I'd say, the what I consider endless tasting contributed to the buying experience. Ambiance remains the same.

I can't say enough about this place. We stopped by last summer and built this year's summer schedule around coming back for it. My husband loves pizza, has tried it all over the US, and has decided this is his favorite. I totally agree. The topnotch ingredients, expansive menu, and cooked-to-order wood fired pizza is extraordinary. Plus, the place has great little gifts and artisan snacks.

It's so much fun to visit the Kitchen Koop! I love to explore the endless displays of cute kitchen stuff (most of which you really don't "need", which makes it even more fun!) One of the best purchases I've made is this little plastic onion shaped thing that holds your leftover onion in the fridge so you don't smell up your tupperware (or the fridge). They also have a lemon and a lime shaped one to store the unused half. So cute. There are tons and tons of serving plates and bowls, aprons, coffees and teas, the list goes on and on. The only thing keeping the last star off is the owner, who is either a total sweetheart or a total witch, depending on the day. She has been known to yell at customers (my friend is one) and just flips out for no good reason. I'm not sure what her deal is, but that never keeps us from going to check out what's new.

I have been seeing this restaurant's stand up sign outside for months bragging about having the best burger in the 757. So today I stopped by and picked one up. You can also eat in at several small tables they have nicely set with white table cloths and colorful cushions. I ordered their Moody's Burger that comes with cheese, leaf lettuce, and homemade pickles. It also comes with a side of pasta salad or several choices of side salads. I asked for mine to be cooked medium-well, as it is ground beef. The wait was 8 minutes. The food was put into small plastic containers and into a nice brown bag with twine handles.I should have done an "unboxing video"! This burger looked just like you want those burgers you get other places to look. The patty was at least 3/4" thick. The cheese melted nicely over the entire burger. It was a little undercooked, more medium, but was within my comfort zone of eating ground meat. One of the best parts is that the roll is toasted, really toasted, not just warmed up on the grill, The Couchon salad was ample with bacon, various greens, and cucumber, and their homemade honey lime dressing was superb. I will say if you decide to dine inside at the tables, it pretty warm, which will be nice in the cooler months, but today seemed kind of stuffy. There is no barrier between the kitchen and the dining area which is the main reason it is warm. I say this burger was probably the best I have had anywhere in a very long time! They are closed on Mondays, and lunch is from 11:00 to 2:00. They have a wide variety of beverages--italian flavored sparkling waters, beer, wine and even a split of French Champagne available ! I would highly recommend the Mood Burger if you are in the mood for an old fashioned, freshly grilled hamburger.
