5 Best Restaurants in Hampton, Virginia You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

Hampton, Virginia — a city where the Chesapeake Bay whispers against the shore, where shipyards and sunlit neighborhoods meet, where the scent of fried seafood and slow-cooked barbecue drifts through streets lined with history and hope. Here, the city’s spirit is woven from the laughter of families at Buckroe Beach, the wisdom of elders who remember the old jazz clubs, the dreams of students at Hampton University, and the quiet pride of those who have called this place home for generations.

Albemarle Neighbor: Bowman turns late-night baking into Edenton home business

In Edenton, Ashley Bowman spends her nights mixing up batches of sweets for her Take It EZ Home Bakery. “I’ve always liked to cook,” Bowman said. “This is what I do for fun.” Bowman, a pharmacy operations manager at the Walgreens in Edenton, started the home bakery more than a year ago. She named it after the initials of her sons, Eason and Zane. She does her baking at night, after her family has gone to sleep, filling the house with the aroma of desserts in the oven. Bowman makes a variety of cinnamon rolls, including cookies and cream, a favorite of one of her sons. She also makes pound cakes, but cake pops are among her most popular items. She can make them in a range of cake flavors and customize them for special occasions, including themed cake pops for children’s birthdays and school-themed ones that have become popular teacher gifts. Bowman said she was inspired to bake by her grandmother, who died three years ago. “She would dip everything in chocolate during Christmas,” Bowman said. She also turns to TikTok for ideas. “I put a twist on it to make it my own,” she said. Bowman will sell

Bertie County Animal Shelter reopens to rave reviews

It is a cliché at this point: When one door closes, another one opens. So goes the story of the Bertie County Animal Shelter. The complaints, controversy and consternation brought on by the condition of the former Bertie County Animal Shelter have come to a close with the opening of the county’s new animal shelter. Officially opened on Friday, Oct. 30, and christened with a highly anticipated ribbon cutting, the new shelter, with a hefty roadside sign, looks welcoming. Inside, the shelter hadn’t been used and each of the 16 rooms, complete with an exit door to an outdoor kennel, would seem comfortable to a dog whether strayed or not. A bright blue sky was the perfect backdrop for Bertie Manager Juan Vaughan to welcome guests and offer a new outlook for Bertie County and its animals. “I am honored and very grateful to stand before you today as the county manager. Before we kick things off, I wanna make sure everyone is in the right place,” explained Vaughan. “If you intended to come to one of the most beautiful places in North Carolina, I want you to know, you’re in the right place. If you intended to come celebrate

Voters return Corprew, Nelson, Ward; approve ABC store, mixed drinks

All three Republican county commissioners whose seats were on the ballot won new terms Tuesday, according to unofficial results. Tim Corprew led the field with 2,326 votes, or 52% of the 4,452 votes cast. Wallace Nelson received 1,104 votes (25%), and James Ward received 1,022 (23%). Corprew collected 1,474 of his votes during early voting, which ran from Oct. 15 to Oct. 31. Nelson received 746 early votes, and Ward received 642. In other races, Sheriff Shelby White was reelected without opposition to another four-year term. White ran as a Democrat in 2018, when he defeated Republican Jim Bray, and again in 2022. He has since switched parties and ran as a Republican on Tuesday. Clerk of Superior Court Todd Tilley also ran unopposed for another four-year term. Tilley ran unopposed as a Democrat in 2018 and 2022 before running as a Republican this year. Voters also overwhelmingly approved two local referendums. The first authorizes the county to establish an ABC board and operate an ABC store. The Town of Hertford already has both. The measure passed 4,250 to 1,200. The second allows the sale of mixed drinks, or liquor by the drink, at restaurants, private clubs and other qualified

Mill Village Museum closes temporarily, seeks new home

EDENTON — The only museum dedicated to the history of Edenton’s working class has closed — but may reopen if organizers can find a new location for it. The Mill Village Museum, which documents the lives of Edenton’s first factory workers, closed Oct. 10. The museum, housed in the former Edenton Cotton Mill building, closed after the owners of the building sent a letter saying they needed to reclaim the space, said Beth Taylor, who is working to relocate the museum. Taylor said the owners announced their decision by mail. There were no negotiations to keep the museum at its current location. Taylor said the closure was not because the Mill Village Museum Association was facing financial difficulties. The museums collection of photographs, exhibits and historical artifacts has been placed in storage. “The museum items are stored in a very safe storage building,” Taylor said in response to questions from the Chowan Herald. The museum’s announcement said the closure was temporary, but there is no timetable for reopening. Taylor said no suitable replacement building has been located yet. “The museum will be reopened in another building whenever we can locate another building,” Taylor said. The museum documented the preservation of

Harbor City Swing brings a 1940s flavor to Hampton Roads

It seems anachronistic, sure: dancing to the hottest hits of the 1940s. But this vintage dance never went completely out of style. Lindy Hop is still alive and well – though obviously the scene is much smaller than its heyday in the 1930s, when jazz was pop music. Jae...
