Haven’t seen your girls in a while thanks to the COVID quarantine? Catch up with your inner circle over a “Morning After Burger” or the “Buttermilk Fried Chicken Burger” – both of which were featured on the Food Network – at Craft Burger. Afterward, enjoy one of the unique blends at ErmaRose Winery. Not only would you be supporting a Black-owned restaurant, you’d be visiting the first Black woman-owned winery in the area.
