A very important lesson in how burrata gets its ridiculously creamy centre.
Roma Cheese’s burrata starts with fresh mozzarella, then gets filled with a creamy mix of fresh cream and ricotta before being shaped into that silky, indulgent centre.
Perfect sliced over a Caprese salad, torn over pizza, or enjoyed straight from the plate - burrata has a way of making just about anything feel a little more special.
Head to the link in our bio to learn more about Roma Cheese and where you can find their products 🧀

Besides insanely beautiful coast and wild nature one of the reasons to come back to Maine was to eat Maine lobster 🦞.
Lobster in Maine is fresh, delicious and has a sweet flavor when cooked.
If you are traveling to Mane definitely add eating lobster on your bucket list. I think I had lobster every day on this trip and it didn’t disappoint.
I also love that I was able to find many gluten free options and a lot of places had gluten free rolls for the lobster rolls.
