Yet, there is nothing better than a housemade syrup, with handcrafted flavors that pair perfectly with espresso and milk. When a friend told me about Give & Take Coffee’s impressive flavor offerings, I knew it was a spot I had to try.

This Virginia Restaurant Brings The Flavors Of Nepal To The Table With Handmade Momos And Family Recipes

Yak momos. Wild boar curry. A crispy ring of fried rice flour bread paired with a tangy radish pickle. That lineup alone made me stop scrolling.
