UPCOMING: Dine + Dash, July 30 in downtown Rochester, MI

*Disclosure: this is a sponsored post. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. 

If you read my Friday Five posts, you know by now that I'm a major "foodie" - by that, I mean that I love eating out and also love cooking new dishes. So I'm excited to be attending Dine + Dash in Rochester, MI this month, which is hosted by Detroit Foodie Tours.

I've done similar tours before but hosted by different companies. Usually on these tours, you have a lanyard and you get to hit up multiple restaurants, usually in a downtown area, and try small bites and drinks at each. It's a great way to try a ton of restaurants in a short amount of time, too.

Dine + Dash will be hosted in downtown Rochester, MI, on Tuesday, July 30th, from 5:30pm-9:30pm.

Best of all: tickets are normally $40-50, but they are having a BOGO sale until tomorrow (Thursday, July 18th)! If you buy 2+ tickets, each ticket is only $20 before fees. Click here to check out the sale. 

 About the tour:
Enjoy the sights, bites and flavors of Downtown Rochester as Detroit Foodie Tour’s DINE + DASH takes you to the city’s most popular, not-so-known restaurants, eateries and food/beverage boutiques!

Chefs will be creating themed small plate dishes with imaginative, fresh recipes. Enjoy delectable samples of cuisine complimented by thoughtfully selected pairings of craft beer or wine.

I'm not super familiar with downtown Rochester—I primarily go there to visit Rochester Brunch House—so I'm excited to try some of these places out. 

{also ... a cookie dough bar?! That sounds amazing!}

Review: Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins

*Disclosure: I received a gift card to try the new Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. Baskin-Robbins launched its Polar Pizza last month (July), as I talked about in my recent post about them, and because this past month was crazy busy for me, I didn't get to try the Polar Pizza until this past Sunday. My parents and I went to the combined Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin-Robbins near them, in Novi, MI, to split one of the ice cream pizzas.
