The Omaha Dining Digest was created out of a love of good food in Omaha. While I have a place to share family-friendly events happening around the city, I didn’t quite have a place for the food events, the drink events, and the cooking classes (that weren’t for the kiddos). And so, the Omaha Dining Digest was born in 2024.
The Omaha Dining Digest is sent out every Tuesday morning, and consists of upcoming food and drink events, classes, wine dinners, and the like, as well as a weekly theme. The first Tuesday of the month always has dining news such as openings. Area restaurants, cafes, breweries, and the like are invited (and encouraged!) to submit upcoming events and news, as well as participate in the weekly themed section. It’s a great way to entice other food lovers to come visit.

La Casa Pizzaria and me go way back. I first tasted the iconic restaurant’s Margherita pizza 20 years ago, and since then, I’ve argued that it’s the best pizza in Omaha with anyone who would listen.
