“Spring symbolizes new beginnings. Nature reveals its beauty through budding trees and flowers, and the fresh temperate air invites us to spend more time outdoors. As we prepare our garden and flowerbeds, new life awakens joy in the beauty of our world and the desire to explore it. And for those without a green thumb, the local farmer’s markets are gearing up for a busy season of visitors to enjoy fresh produce from local farmers.

There are many diverse spots around town to discover, whether it is a new restaurant with a great patio to enjoy, a hiking trail to take in nature and the surrounding scenery, or a niche boutique hotel for a relaxing staycation—there is something for everyone.

For our April issue, we would like to share with you some ways to explore right here in the great state of Texas. Miraval Austin Resort and Spa is second to none if you are looking for a holistic way to unwind and reboot. Be sure to check out Miraval’s all-inclusive 2-night giveaway! In addition, read about the Westin Stonebriar in Dallas, and explore some exotic flavors right down the street at Van Leeuwen Ice Cream. We would love to hear from you about your favorite hidden gems in town and your go-to travel destinations, so drop us a line or share it with us on Facebook or Instagram.

We hope that the destinations featured this month give you something to dream about visiting in the near future. Here is to a happy spring full of adventure, peace, and sunshine.”

THE HOUSTON FOOD BANK IS CELEBRATING ITS 40TH ANNIVERSARY. HELPING OUT IS EASIER THAN YOU THINK! ARTICLE BY RIVER OAKS LIFESTYLE STAFF PHOTOGRAPHY BY HOUSTON FOOD BANK

2 Hunger impacts more than your mind and body. It can also impact your self-esteem, outlook on life, and health.

Since 1982, the Houston Food Bank has been fighting hunger in the Bayou City. They have only been able to do this with the generosity of community members just like you! Here are some ways you can help out.

1. GET THE KIDS INVOLVED Children as young as 6 years old can sort food and portion bulk items, while older kids can pack boxes and check for damage.

2. LOOK FOR A RED BARREL Kroger and HEB have set up red barrels for food donations. Grab an extra package of food, then drop it in the barrel after check out.

3. DOUBLE YOUR DOLLAR The Food Bank’s website will show if your employer participates in a match program. Visit doublethedonation.com/houstonfoodbank#/ organization to view your company’s policy.

4. JOIN A COMMUNITY Volunteering is a great way to make new friends and and increase your overall well-being.

THE PERFECT SCOOP ARTISANALLY MADE WITH PREMIUM INGREDIENTS, VAN LEEUWEN’S INNOVATIVE FLAVORS ARE EXACTLY WHAT HOUSTON’S ICE CREAM SCENE NEEDS.

16

LOCA L’S CH OICE | FOOD + BE VE RAGE

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, Blood Orange Cream, and Vegan Yuzu & Sake might not be obvious choices for ice cream flavors, but they are what has propelled Van Leeuwen Ice Cream to be New York City’s favored creamy scoop. What started as a Brooklyn-based ice cream truck has become an empire. Van Leeuwen ice cream is now available in grocery stores, online, and in their brightly colored ice cream shops in New York and Los Angeles.

In 2021, the cult favorite landed in Houston with outposts in Rice Village, Uptown Park, and a third location slated to open in The Montrose Collective this spring.

Co-founder Ben Van Leeuwen explained why he cares more about butterfat and egg yolks than just about anyone else and why Houston was an obvious choice for the bi-coastal company.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE HOUSTON AS YOUR FIRST TEXAS LOCATION? We always had Houston in mind, because it is a large city with a great food scene and diversity.

We looked at income and education levels data, and Houston ranked high. Houston doesn’t get the same PR as other places like Austin, but it is an excellent city.

VAN LEEUWEN IS A RELATIVELY YOUNG COMPANY - IT IS SURPRISING HOW FAST YOU HAVE GROWN. I started it in 2008 with my brother and our business partner Laura. We raised $50K from friends and family. We bought a used post office truck off eBay and outsourced all ice cream production for the first year. We have been in business for almost 15 years, and we bootstrapped it for the first 11 years. Since then, we have raised money twice to increase production and open more stores. We have expanded a lot in the last two years.

When everything was getting terrible in New York during COVID, we almost closed all our New York City locations. I am so glad that we didn’t because we have almost made it back to pre-pandemic levels. During COVID, when sales were much slower, we got to work on our day-today operations and streamlined the behind-thescenes stuff like supply chain operations.

WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE LOVE VAN LEEUWEN ICE CREAM EVEN AT A PREMIUM PRICE POINT?

BEN VAN LEEUWEN

I believe we create luxurious and deeply satisfying ice cream. We use an 18% butterfat and 8% egg yolk base. What does that mean to the customer? It means we are using a lot more fat and a ton of egg yolks, which makes a creamy custard our customers enjoy.

We also focus on the highest quality ingredients. For example, the chocolate we use is top quality from Ecuador, where we are also invested in helping the community. The strawberries in our ice cream are picked right off the vine when they are at their ripest; we get our pistachios from Italy and our tea from a supplier in New York. All in all, I think it is a combination of excellent customer service and delicious ice cream.

WHAT CAN VAN LEEUWEN ENTHUSIASTS LOOK FORWARD TO THIS YEAR? This is the first year we are implementing quarterly specials, and I am excited about it. There will be 12 quarterly specials per year and another 10-20 limited-time offer specials.

The Perfect Three Day Weekend in

North Dallas

If a quick weekend getaway sounds irresistible, put the Westin Dallas Stonebriar Golf Resort & Spa at the top of your destination wish list.

20

R OA D T R IP | TR AVEL

Even if you don’t have weeks of time off to spare, long weekends offer a great way to reset and get a change of scenery.

Houston’s proximity to several top Texas destinations means you can pack your bag, leave home with a cup of coffee in hand, and arrive at your destination by lunchtime. Suppose you are craving a luxury destination with top-notch amenities, near several great dining and retail locations, as well as opportunities for outdoor activities. In that case, the Westin Dallas Stonebriar Golf Resort & Spa is a great home base for a weekend away. The property recently underwent a $30 million renovation making it a unique and upscale destination in North Dallas.

DAY 1 Arrive at the hotel in the afternoon.

After checking in, head downstairs to Beans and Barrel because all perfect weekends should start with great cocktails and delicious food. The onsight day-to-night eatery offers coffee and breakfast items in the morning and transitions to light bites and cocktails in the evening. With a cocktail in hand, sit back and relax; take in the spacious lobby and beautiful views of the Stonebriar Golf Club.

Now it is time to ramp up the fun with an evening in the resort’s Top Golf Swing Suite. The Swing Suite combines a simulated Topgolf experience with a luxurious atmosphere. Features include a large screen and several multi-sport games, as well as comfortable lounge seating. The Swing Suite is in high demand, so reservations are encouraged for this one-of-akind experience.

DAY 2 Time to fuel up for a great day ahead.

Lucky Herd and Hearth, the onsite restaurant, offers not only a breakfast buffet but an excellent a la carte menu, too. The Rose Scented French Toast or Burnt Ends Smoked Brisket Hash & Poached Organic Eggs are delicious - both will leave you in a very satisfying food coma.

“Suppose you are craving a luxury destination with top-notch amenities, near several great dining and retail locations, as well as opportunities for outdoor activities. In that case, the Westin Dallas Stonebriar Golf Resort & Spa is a great home base for a weekend away.”

The options for a great time in Dallas are endless, but if you want to stick close to the hotel, there are plenty of fun ways to fill your day. Legacy West, located a few minutes from the Westin Stonebriar, is a sizeable urban destination with an abundance of upscale shops and restaurants to enjoy.

Also located minutes from the hotel is the National Videogame Museum. It is the only place in the United States dedicated to the videogame industry’s rich history and where it is heading next. There are plenty of interactive exhibits and hands on games to play from every generation. From Pong

22

R OA D T R IP | TR AVEL

to Playstation 5, the museum has it all and is a must see.

The Westin Dallas Stonebriar Golf Resort & Spa is also home to north Dallas’ premier golf course. The 18-hole championship golf course designed by Tom Fazio has a stunning expanse of greens, bunkers, and offers a challenging game for golfers of all skill levels. Guests are also welcome to take advantage of the driving range or schedule a private lesson with a golf pro.

After a full day, the hotel’s poolside cabanas and lounge chairs will be a welcome sight. Soak in the sun and enjoy

cocktails or dinner at Ranch Water. Open for lunch and dinner, they are known for their savory sandwiches and fresh salads.

DAY 3 Sundays are for self-care, so before checking out, make sure to indulge in a treatment at the hotel’s in-house spa, Well & Being. The full-service spa offers many massages, facials, and body treatments that will leave you feeling buffed, fluffed, and ready to tackle the week ahead.

Motivation to return to work on Monday, well, that’s all on you.

Relax, Renew,

Rejuvenate Miraval Austin’s Resort and Spa is the perfect retreat to heal mind, body, and spirit

Tucked away in the Hill Country, just north of Austin, Miraval Resort and Spa is one of the few all-inclusive resorts in Texas. Voted one of the best wellness retreats in the country, Miraval is just a short drive away. Meals, snacks, smoothies, and activities such as yoga, fitness classes, and outdoor challenges, are included. All of the food is made with fresh, natural ingredients, and Miraval’s Life in Balance Spa is second to none!

After endless months of work, chores, notifications, and other distractions, I needed to reboot and was eager to check out Miraval for myself. My husband and I packed our bags, and were on our way.

Upon arriving, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Miraval is more open-spaced than other resorts. The sprawling 280 acre campus creates an atmosphere of quiet and serenity. Our room was private and luxurious, with a cozy reading nook overlooking the hill county. From our balcony, we could see miles of green as we gazed out at the rolling hills of the Balcones Canyonland Preserve.

One of the highlights of the trip was our private culinary experience. Our personal chef prepared a delicious five course meal with unique seasonal flavors, and wine was perfectly paired with each dish. We started with a carrot hummus that was divine, followed by a vegan mushroom soup, both full of exquisite flavor. Appetizers were followed by a delicious seared trout, NY strip with fresh creamed spinach, and finished off with a perfectly tart, berry cheesecake. We ended the night with an evening stroll through the grounds on our way back to our room.

In the mornings, we got our blood flowing with restorative yoga. Then, we indulged in some of the most amazing breakfasts ever. The savory chicken sausage and magnificent blueberry pancakes are a must try! The food is all fresh and the flavor is first class! Miraval sources all of their ingredients from local farms which you can even tour.

Miraval’s Life in Balance Spa has won countless awards, and offers an extensive menu of spa services. The facilities were absolutely stunning - well designed, spacious, and deserving of the accolades. Not only is it peaceful and serene, but it has spectacular, panoramic views of Lake Travis! The spa facilities are available for guests to use at their leisure, even if a spa service is not on the itinerary.

Other activities you can experience include horseback riding, ropes courses, archery, and several different types of meditation. We really enjoyed our invigorating morning hike, choosing one of the more adventurous trails. They also have an impressive, heated outdoor infinity pool overlooking the hill country.

I recommend booking your activities well in advance, as they book up quickly. During our trip, masks were required inside, so be sure to check Miraval’s website for covid policy updates.

After my stay at Miraval, I definitely felt relaxed, renewed, and rejuvenated and I'm sure you will too.
