👋 OH HEY 👋

Mads here! I had quite the weekend visiting some new (and old) spots around town:

• 🥬 First up, Cookbook Market on Larchmont is by FAR my favorite location of theirs. They have a whole cafe patio that I could spend hours at.

• 🍵 Then, I popped over to Suá Superette to say hi to co-founder Stephanie, grab a matcha, and check out the incredible Chinese mini mart she created with Fly by Jing founder, Jing Gao.

• 🍟 I checked out the new wine garden & French restaurant, Le Champ, in the Arts District. Everyone must go there for date night or a friend hangout. Get the fries. Trust me.

• 🍷 This past week I also popped my El Prado cherry (more on that below).

• 🥪 I did the classic Bay Cities to beach pipeline on Sunday evening to watch the sunset (at 4:30 PM might I add).

Thank you to everyone who walked with us this past Saturday with our friends at HUM Nutrition. This was one of our biggest walk clubs yet, and I’m so happy I got to meet all of you (while we were decked out in hot pink HUM bucket hats). See you at the next one 😎

Oh, and did you hear…OUR APP IS NOW IN THE APP STORE! Can’t wait to follow all of you on Camber 📲 We’ve been slowly releasing it out, so expect exciting updates soon.
