We sat down with owners Jessica and Shawnal of Off the Wagon Mobile Bar for a conversation about creativity, community, and the stories behind their signature drinks.

During the episode, Shawnal shared a special cocktail she created for her son’s graduation party to celebrate his milestone as a graduate of Kettering High School. More than just a drink, it was a personal way to honor years of hard work, memories, and a hometown achievement.

From custom cocktails to unforgettable celebrations, Off the Wagon Mobile Bar is all about creating experiences that bring people together. 🍸🎓✨

Some of our favorite memories are built around the table.

We recently sat down with the president of Grobbel’s to talk about the power of food, family traditions, and the emotions tied to every meal. He shared how their team works hard to avoid becoming food snobs, focusing instead on creating products that feel familiar, comforting, and accessible to everyone.

Because great food isn’t just about ingredients. It’s about the memories it brings back. From family gatherings and backyard barbecues to holiday dinners and childhood favorites, every bite has the power to take us back to the moments that matter most.

Watch this heartfelt conversation and discover how Grobbel’s keeps nostalgia and connection at the center of everything they do. #easternmarket #detroit
