Finding a new way to get a fix for your sweet tooth is always an adventure. One of the things people in Michigan feat most is when the leaves start to turn and then all of the sudden...for no particular reason at all, all of the ice cream shops that people stood 20 deep in line for all summer....they are closed. So it's back to the gas station or grocery store for whatever brick of freezer burnt sale priced ice cream they have that week and nothing more than a distant memory of days gone by.
Jerry and Lashawn Matthews are the team behind this new destination dining spot in Muskegon. It's in a pretty well known spot. The corner of Henry and Broadway has been a "main corner" for forever and when the old dry cleaners moved out, and the building sat empty for a while, the ideas of what could be were on the minds of many, but this very entrepreneurial couple got it going and it was because of that spirit they got the idea to open a spot for fun food and a community gathering space in the first place.
We first met them talking about their outreach to keep parental alienation at bay way back when. As the pandemic hit, they also were opening a freight company to get in to the shipping business and that continues as well. Jerry was out making a run and stumbled on a spot much like this in NY and wanted to know a little more. So, after a taste he went back and spoke to the owner. "How do I get this going at home?" A new shop is born.
Inside Bubble Krave, you'll find the sweet smells of the shop along with an engaging atmosphere where there are games to play, conversations to be had or big screen tv's to watch. The ordering area is quaint and to the point and in the back, the kitchen even has it's very own water purification system in it to make sure that the product going out is 100% perfect. Not only will you find a giant list of delectable boba drinks, you'll find old school favorites like pizza burgers and specialty chicken ceasar salads! Great for a quick bite! Gussie up a waffle with anything you like topping wise or maybe just enjoy a traditional cone...the choice is yours and the flavors you can build. Wait till you meet the server. You'll see her..or...him...or um....well, watch the video.
Like anything we've encountered with Jerry and Lashawn, it's based on community and togetherness. There are regular group meetings happening at the location, and they encourage other groups that are looking for a "spot" to reach out and let them know what you are in need of. Gather, enjoy and support the local flavors who don't stop with the seasons! You can follow BUBBLE KRAVE ON FACEBOOK and you can also find BUBBLE KRAVE ON THEIR WEBSITE
