​Our beautiful city of Omaha has long been revered as being a step ahead when it comes to unique food concepts, and has been celebrated for its mouthwatering dishes, modern restaurant scene and innovative cuisine. Did you know that the TV dinner and the Reuben sandwich were both created here? It’s true! These classics are staples for many people, and are still loved and adored by many across the country – and even the world! Knowing that Omaha has a top culinary scene, you may be wondering which restaurants are the best in town and worth checking out. If this sounds like you, then today’s blog post is a must read. Let’s jump right in to a few of the top restaurants in and around Omaha!

Our first must-visit restaurant is a popular destination for many locals in Omaha and one that will make meat lovers rejoice! Yes, you may have guessed it – we are talking about The Drover. This admired steakhouse is famous for its whiskey steak, ribeye’s, filets and sirloins, and also serves dishes such as pork chops, crab legs, fish and chicken. And for those looking to balance their plates with a little green, The Drover also has a large salad bar to dive into. Next, located in the Old Market District is M’s Pub, which is well-known for their salads, steaks, soups, cold and hot sandwiches, and delicious desserts. They also have an impressive wine list, and visitors can take their pick from lounging on the patio, island bar or beautiful main dining room.

Our next destination is located in the Midtown Crossings District and is a popular restaurant with contemporary flair. Wondering what’s on the menu at The Grey Plume? Well, that depends on what’s in season! Visitors will be impressed with this farm-to-table concept and can expect dishes to be made with locally sourced and grown ingredients. This concept allows the chefs to be creative and let their talents soar. The Grey Plume is also a Green Restaurant Certified by SustainaBuild, and a location for cooking classes for locals looking to hone their skills. Lastly – calling all vegans! Modern Love is a new vegan restaurant in town and goes against the popular ‘meat capitol’ reputation that Omaha has come to be known for. Modern love is only open for dinner, and goers can expect to see dishes such as mushroom cheeseburgers, enchiladas and gnocchi. Who says vegan eating can’t be delicious!

If you are thinking of selling your home, from time to time you may catch yourself making mental notes of areas that need repair, carpets that need cleaning and clutter that needs to be sorted and donated/thrown out. Many home owners may not realize the extent of work that needs to be done on their home before it is ready to be put on the market and shown to potential buyers. If you are wondering where to start in the home staging process, and want to do it without breaking the bank, then today’s blog post is for you. There are a few golden rules for you to keep in mind as you prepare and stage your home for potential buyers, and we have listed them below for you to check out. Let’s jump right in!

The first rule we are going to talk about is de-personalizing your home. What do we mean by that? Well, remember the large, framed family photo from three summers ago at Lake Tahoe that you have hanging in the living room? While it may bring you great joy as beautiful memories flood back to you when you look at it, it may not be as appealing to potential buyers who are looking at your home. You want your home to essentially be a blank canvas for buyers to picture themselves settling into. You want them to look at your kitchen and picture their Sunday dinners, your master bedroom as a cozy oasis for them to escape to and your family room as a central hub for gatherings. It will be hard for them to do that if all they see are reminders of how you have made the house yours and all the wonderful time you have spent there. So, with that being said, it is important to remove personal items that you have around your home when staging to sell. 

The next tip we have for you is to de-clutter the space. There is no better way for potential home buyers to picture a blank canvas than for them to see clean and neat spaces. You may even want to think about renting a storage unit if there are items that you think do not add to the space, but that you aren’t quite ready to part with yet. This can include items such as bulky furniture, artwork, kids toys, holiday decorations and clothing that makes your closet look too packed, thus making it appear smaller. De-cluttering will maximize the space in your home, ensuring that potential buyers see the real and full potential of the house. Our next tip is arguably the simplest, and that is to clean/sanitize your home. No one likes a dirty home and you only have one chance to make a first impression on buyers. Whether you hire on a company or choose to grab the rubber gloves and tackle the cleaning yourself, it will be the best time/money you could spend when it comes to staging your home to sell. 

Our last tip for you is to neutralize your home. It is no secret that color can make or break how people view a particular space. And while you may think that bright pink accent wall does wonders for the aesthetic of the home, potential buyers may think otherwise. All they will see is money, time and potential frustration on a home improvement project. One of the most inexpensive ways to change the look and feel of a home is to paint, and we can assure you that updating the space with calming and neutral colors will make a world of difference for buyers. We hope these tips and tricks will help you when it comes to staging your home to sell, and take off some of the stress and guess work on where to start! 

Can you believe it is the last weekend of 2018?! We can’t either! What better way to end one year and ring in a new one than to enjoy fun events making beautiful memories with family and friends. And lucky for you, this weekend is bringing festivities such as a gingerbread festival, a holiday lights festival, art exhibits, a walking food tour, a basketball and hockey game, and much more! We hope you are enjoying this time of year with loved ones and wish you a wonderful 2019! See you in the New Year!

It’s that time of year when people trade their light, fall jackets for an insulted, warm coat, and their fashion forward strappy sandals for knee high boots. It also means that when outside temperatures drop, homeowners can expect their monthly electric bill to rise. It happens each year, yet many people are still shocked when they see that first heating bill come their way. So instead of breaking out the extra blankets and sleeping with seven layers on, we have a few tips and tricks below that will help to keep your home warm and comfortable, without breaking your wallet with extreme heating bills every month!

The first tip we have for you may come as a surprise to many people as it involves your ceiling fan. Many people associate their ceiling fan with keeping cool in the warmer summer months, but many fan models can also be adjusted to spin clockwise to help keep you warm in the winter. How does this work you ask? With the blades spinning clockwise, the fan will actually drive the warm air that rose up to the ceiling back down to keep the temperature of the room warmer.  Next, you want to be sure to seal any ducts and/or cracks in windows and doors as that can account for much of the heat loss that can occur within your home. Fun fact – you can also save up to ten percent on your monthly heating costs just by caulking leaky windows and doors or installing weather-stripping throughout your house.

Our third tip is to make sure that you are keeping your chimney closed when it is not in use. You may also consider investing in a chimney balloon, which is an inflatable device inserted into the chimney to help keep the warm air in and the cold air out. Lastly, you want to always make sure that you are changing your air filters, as dirty filters can actually restrict airflow which in turns increases the energy use in your home. And did you know that just by changing your furnace or heating unit filter every three months can actually save you from four to six percent on your heating costs yearly!? If that isn’t a motivator to get those filters changed I don’t know what is!  

Because we are almost halfway through December (crazy, we know!), there is no better time than to head out of the house and enjoy all the fun and festivities happening in and around Omaha this weekend!  Whether you are looking to meet Santa Clause himself, take in a gingerbread festival or just adore the twinkling lights of the Christmas trees, there is truly something for everyone. We have listed a few must-see events below, and wish you all the joy and happiness this time of year brings!

While Omaha has a longstanding reputation for having some of the country’s best and tastiest steaks, many people don’t realize that our beautiful state has so much more to offer its residents! Omaha has a population of just under one million, which allows the city to retain a small community feel, while also boasting many features of a big city that people love. With a growing economy, top rated restaurants, affordable living and endless entertainment options, we tend to agree with the notion that Omaha is one of the best places in the Midwest to live and work – and we are confident that you too will agree after reading this blog post! 

While the chic culinary scene in Omaha may not be the top reason many people choose to settle down here, we tend to think of it as a huge bonus! You will find many chefs around town that once left Omaha to train in larger cities, but have since returned to share their culinary talents with their home town. Residents and guests to the area are always pleased to find mouthwatering dishes and booming restaurants around every corner of Omaha. Next, when it comes to entertainment, residents young and old alike are able to fill their calendars year round with fun and exciting things to do. Everything from thrilling sporting events and theatrical plays, to musicals, food festivals and much more! 

And did you know that Omaha is home to The Joslyn Art Museum, which is one of the top art museums in the country. Also, Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium is located here and boasts the largest indoor rainforest in North America, and is another top destination for guests year round. Are you always thinking of the next big idea and constantly dreaming of that company you’ve always wanted to start? If so, you are in luck! With the low cost of living and thriving startup scene, Omaha is a top rated city to start a business in. Lastly, Omaha is known for its safe and friendly neighborhoods, as well as top rated school districts, which are important lines to check off when looking for a new place for you and your family to settle into. It is safe to say that here in Omaha, we truly have it all! 

If you have been following our weekly blogs then you know we let you in on all the fun events, festivals and activities that happen around Omaha each weekend. Our hope is for you to spend some quality time out of the house with family and friends exploring all that our beautiful city has to offer, and make some fun and lasting memories in the process! With Christmas just a few weeks away (we can’t believe it either!), we are sure many people will find themselves trying to find gifts so they can start checking off their list, preparing their home for out of town visitors and putting together a holiday food menu – all while trying to enjoy the holiday spirit and remember what this season is all about. Putting all the hustle and bustle aside, we wanted to dedicate this blog post to some special holiday events that are taking place around Omaha in the coming days and weeks. These events are the perfect excuse to put your to-do-list away and spend some quality time with family enjoying this joyous time of year. 

The first can’t-miss event we wanted to highlight is Christmas at Union Station, which has grown to become one of the regions top holiday destination and is a long standing tradition for families of the area. Held at The Durham Museum, visitors can expect to meet Santa himself, see holidays from around the globe and be in awe of the forty-foot, breathtaking Christmas tree. It truly is a spectacle and holiday experience you won’t want to miss!  The next event we wanted to point out is Miracle on Farnam, which is a stunning showcase of creative imagination and talented artistry. With over 20 window displays, each collection was created by students, independent artists or local nonprofits, and is the perfect place for a stroll to take in and appreciate the undeniable local talent. 

Can you think of many things better than Holidays in The Old Market? We didn’t think so! Omaha’s Old Market Entertainment District is ready to show off its yuletide spirit by tickling your senses with fresh, scented greenery and bright, festive lights. Inside you will be pleased to find holiday specials that will draw you in and make you want to explore the beautiful boutiques and tasty restaurants/pubs. Lastly, if you really want to make your children happy this holiday season, be sure to check out Santa’s Magic at the Omaha Children’s Museum. This holiday tradition is the perfect way to bring your family together with the magic of the season, and not only get a chance to visit with Santa, but also enjoy a short interactive show with the Snow Queen and elves. It is an event that you won’t want to miss this Christmas!
