If you ever find yourself at Root's Country Market & Auction, know that you've got options when it comes to basically anything. There is a wide array of vendors covering everything from football cards to Amish furniture, gems, and homemade pies. I stopped by Root's last week for produce and decided to have lunch there as well. Three savory vendors caught my eye, all of them which are fairly busy. There's usually a line, so I am assuming people like what they offer.

Best Buns has two locations in Northern Virginia: Shirlington [Arlington] and Tyson's Corner. This bakery rings truth to the fact that it is okay to have an indulgent breakfast from time to time and have it worth it. They have many breakfast goodies to include cinnamon rolls, sticky buns, croissants, and muffins. But don't stop there; they also have savory meals to include cold sandwiches, hamburgers and fries, and pasta salads. If you are familiar with the Great American Restaurants such as Coastal Flats, Mikes American Grill, and Sweetwater Tavern, then you must know that this is also affiliated with that name. You will find some similar treats from the restaurants in this bakery as well as other freshly baked staples. Tip: Get there early because they sell out fast.

Bun Papa's name insists they are the papa of buns! Nestled in Alexandria, VA, they are working hard to create hot dogs, burgers, and chicken sandwiches that stand out from other local competitors. The pop-up restaurant is located inside Bread and Water Company and very easy to miss, but don't be mistaken, since they are inside a bakery, you can know for a fact they are making their owns bun for their hot dogs and sandwiches alike. When you walk in you will see a wall full of awards and magazine articles highlighting their menu items. Helpful tips to know are that they begin serving menu items at 3:00pm and there is no inside seating; only a few tables and a small bar top outside. This is a good place to grab and go, or eat outside when the weather is perfect.

When in Hawai'i, splurge on all of the good eats, especially this combo. Hawai'i is known for it's amazing garlic shrimp with gobs of garlic and big plump shrimp. But Five Star Shrimp kicked it up a notch and made this dish extra special. They combined the famous garlic shrimp with some heat and then some sweet and put this combo in a cored-out pineapple. The combo of heat, sweet, and savory is one you must try! And Honolulu Burger Co opened up another location here in the food court. Their burgers are imaginative and flavorful. The taro burger is one that you shouldn't skip when checking them out! And don't forget to add those sweet potato fries! <a href="https://waikikifoodhall.com">https://waikikifoodhall.com</a>/ Music <a href="www.pixabay.com">www.pixabay.com</a> Happy Dance Alex MakeMusic
