IKEA is officially in Hampton Roads, and unless you are someone whose work commute has become twice as long due to the increased traffic on Northampton blvd., I’m sure you are excited.

I was so excited to have the opportunity to preview the store prior to its opening, and was even more excited about the Smorgasbord breakfast they would be having.
Fun Fact about the store: Yes, they have meatballs, but they also cater and have private food related events throughout the year. The breakfast included items from their restaurant, but the majority of it was from the catering menu. Check it out below and let me know what you would get.
