Café Alma came to fruition through a shared love of community and food. The owners, Lainey and Yair Richler encourage the habit of healthy eating and living a well-balanced lifestyle through a Mediterranean Diet. Café Alma aspires to be the place people come to for a meal and feel good about what they are eating. The Richlers hope their cafe can feel like a home away from home— where one can sit for hours with a friend, offer a comfortable space for those that work remotely, or be the first choice for special occasions.

Every dish on the menu is filled with color and flavor, with hopes that customers will come back time after time to make their way through the menu. Some of Café Alma’s staple dishes consist of: Alma’s Classic Shakshuka, Rosewater Pistachio Waffle, and the Sun Dried Tomato Benedict. When discussing their menu, Yair Richler said: “We’re focusing on a different vibe with comfort foods that people are familiar with and love, but with our own little twist on it.”

Café Alma is Cincinnati’s first Mediterranean cafe serving breakfast, brunch, and lunch all day. Reservations for groups of 6 or more are needed, waitlist is recommended for 5 or less and can be found through their website.

We are a part of this city, a part of this community. Alongside our neighbors and friends, we’ve struggled through hard times and relish the celebrations. Sports and entertainment mean more now than they ever have. They bring us hope. They brighten our days and nights. They give us something to look forward to. And no matter the outcome, they give us hope for more to come.

 What builds the foundation for these celebrations are the places and the people you go to.

Just in case you might think that the global pandemic was slowing resort development, it would seem nobody’s stopping the luxury all-inclusive model. In early September, Hyatt Hotel Corporation acquired Apple Leisure Group, a leading luxury resort-management services, travel and hospitality group for 2.9  billion dollars adding over 100 resorts to their catalog! This acquisition has created a powerful force in the global travel industry. And it defines how this model kept the travel industry alive in the early days of the pandemic and what is driving it still today. New resorts such as Dreams Karibana Cartagena Columbia, Dreams Cozumel Cape Preferred and Secrets Moxche Playa del Carmen, are all opening in the upcoming months and all part of the Hyatt/ALG conglomerate. Many more to come! Why? Luxury all-inclusive Resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico are offering the safest and easiest travel experience.  

For now, all travelers entering the US will need to acquire a negative antigen test before boarding the plane. Sounds like a hassle, right? Wrong if you chose the right hotel!  The all-inclusive luxury properties are offering the test on property for your convenience. The concierge sets up your test a day before you depart, and you receive your negative result for you to present to the airlines. And even more important and impressive, if you would test positive, these resorts will offer complimentary stays for the 10-14 days of quarantine with meals delivered all at no cost!  

Luxury all-inclusive resorts are pulling out all the stops to provide a safe and healthy vacation environment. Boost your immune system with the vitamin D, fresh air, exercise, and positive energy! ENJOY!!
