It is always nice to take a little stroll in a beautiful and unusual neighborhood, replete with art on the walls and a charming atmosphere.

It began with a phone call – I wanted to know what time the restaurant started to serve lunch. The gentleman who answered said: “This is Killian Café, we serve everything all day, every day.” I loved the tone of his voice, and I was hooked before I even walked through their doors. The day […]

The Miami Greek Festival happens every year in November. Each time I have said that we must go, and each year I have missed it. Not this time! Mister B., the little chicken, her beloved boyfriend and myself, hit the road and drove 9 miles to experience Greek culture firsthand in Miami. The 40th Annual […]

How did we end up in Pubbelly Sushi again? Well, let me tell you. We were supposed to join Mister B., but at the last minute, that was canceled because of the weather. When I informed the little one, she said that she was already dressed and that we needed to go somewhere, no matter […]

I had not been to Miami Beach in ages and I was so glad to be back in this area. Time Out Miami Market is an upscale yet casual food court that offers many food choices for all diners. We visited 4 different stalls and tried food from Vietnam, Perú, Italy, and America, of course. […]

When asparagus season rolls around, we indulge in them by using this recipe – it’s easy, fast and delicious. I first ran across this method on the internet, in a recipe by Laura Vitale. She uses parmesan cheese, which I love. My mother is not too keen on parmesan (she calls it “pum” cheese) so […]

The Brick American Kitchen and Bar had been on my bucket list for a while, so when I saw that they had a special summer lunch menu, focused on warm and bright flavors, the chicken and I took a little drive to Downtown Dadeland. I was not sure if this was the right time to […]

I found Chana Thai Kitchen by accident while looking for something else on the internet. It is right across the street from one of my favorite grocery stores, and I never noticed it before. This time we were joined by Miss E. – a person who possesses a set of unparalleled taste buds. The first […]

La Mar by Gastón Acurio has always had a special place in my heart. This restaurant combines 3 things that I especially love – Peruvian cuisine, outdoor seating by the sea, and exceptional service. I was going thru yet another professional transition in my life, so I decided to have lunch here as a symbolic […]

My website, Masala Eats Miami, is a serious hobby. Is serious because it involves 3 of the things I like to do most: eat, take pictures of the food eaten, and writing about the experience. This hobby requires thought and time – it’s a process. After 6 years, I have 1200 followers to whom I […]

This is the perfect dish to prepare for a weeknight dinner – easy, quick and delicious. I came up with this method because I love combining salmon with sweet sauces, so why not use Thai chili sweet sauce for a change? My chickens love it so now it is on our dinner rotation regularly. I […]

Miss G., the little chicken and I went to the market to get some veggies and eat some Salvadorean food. Redland Market Village is about 20 minutes from where we live if I take the back roads. After living in Miami for over 30 years, it is a shame that it took me such a […]
