Chaps
Don’t miss this brunch spot on the “South Hill” off of US-195. You can tell they specialize in their “sweet” food having tried their Pumpkin French Toast. But they do serve all the savory classic dishes as well as have a full bar with fun cocktails. If you go on the weekends, be sure to get there early!!
Inland Pacific Kitchen
Loved the vibe at Inland Pacific Kitchen and the service was spectacular. There aren’t too many items on the menu, and the menu online doesn’t quite match up with the menu in the restaurant. But, what they do have is delicious, especially the dessert (Banana Leaf Sorbet).
Sushi Blossom
It’s tough to find a good sushi restaurant in Spokane, but having Sushi Blossom on the south hill is a great addition. They have a full sushi roll menu, along with hot kitchen items to choose from. And if you’re a fan of Sake, they have it all.
Giving Back Philosophy
When you're searching for the perfect place to call home, it's not just about the walls and floors—it's about the heart and soul of the community that surrounds you. This is why I am proud to share that My approach to real estate extends beyond the walls of a home. As a realtor who genuinely cares about both my clients and the greater community, I have made it a cornerstone of my practice to give back to the place we all call home.
