Muy Bien!
Kevita Sparkling Probiotic Drinks have become one of our go-to beverages for their refreshing and cleansing properties. New to the collection of probiotic offerings are Daily Cleanse, which is infused with organic lemon and cayenne, and Mojita, a minty, lime libation, minus the alcohol, of course. The lightly carbonated bottled bevies feature four strains of probiotics; are lightly sweetened with stevia; are non-GMO; and free of dairy, lactose, and gluten. Cheers!

We love the street-side tacos at Reyna Foods in the Strip — along with the authentic flour and corn tortillas;
chips; and Mexican, Caribbean, and Latin American fare for sale inside the specialty shop. Now, owner Nicola DiCio has opened a restaurant, right downstairs! Casa Reyna offers those signature tacos, along with an expanded menu and a wide selection of beers and tequila flights, highlighting spirits from the highlands and lowlands of Mexico. DiCio is also set to launch a panadería, or a Mexican bakery, soon! Casa Reyna, 2031 Penn Ave., Strip District. 412.904.1242. facebook.com/casareynamex.
Scenic Suppers Presented by Chef Jacob Mains, The Farmer’s Table farm dinner series emphasizes the 360-degree relationship we have with food —
from the environmental impact, to the taste of what’s on our plates, to how it affects our health. Mains has established an ongoing partnership with local farms to present these seasonal, local, from-scratch dinners. The series continues on August 31 at Jarosinski Farms, September 7 at Lewis Family Farms, and September 21 at Blackberry Meadows Farm. The events include hors d’oeuvres stations, a soup or cheese and charcuterie plates, salad, pasta, entrée, and dessert courses. The events also feature live music and, of course, gorgeous views. “It’s very scenic,” says Mains. “When you’re out in the open air, there’s so much to take in. It’s a very pleasing experience.” Plus, the events are BYOB! For more information and reservations, visit farmerstable.org.
