Father’s Day 2022 – For Dads Who Are SHRIMP-LY The Best!

by Monica Nguyen

The year has flown by and September is right around the corner (let’s be real, it will be September tomorrow!). And… do you know what that means… does the first Sunday of September ring a bell?

Let me give you a big hint… Father’s Day is fast approaching. (Oops did you forget?)

Haven’t bought him any gifts? Too late for last-minute shopping? Not sure what to get him? Does he have enough of “World’s Best Dad” and “#1 Dad” socks, mugs, and t-shirts? Don’t worry we have you covered! Hidden City Secrets has done all the research for you and looked into our dad-a-base to spoil him with a Father’s Day delicious treat. After all, we want him to have a MUG-nificent day without buying him a mug. And you can’t go wrong with good food.

Treat the men in your life who have the biggest PIZZA of your heart. (Yes, can you see what I’m doing there… this article is LOADED with dad jokes. I know – how fitting!)
