The last time we went out before the COVID-19 situation got grave in Miami was on March 8th, to go to the Asian Culture Festival. I was hesitant to go, and now I am so glad we went – it was early, so not too many people, and the vast array of food available was […]
It was raining, and the last thing I wanted to do was drive anywhere – but I promised. The little one’s boyfriend was coming over, and I said that I would take them to lunch. I had to keep my word. Where could we go that had good food, and covered outdoor seating that would […]
Mister B. suggested that we visit Dukunoo Jamaican Kitchen in Wynwood. It’s unlike any other Caribbean restaurant I have been to in Miami – so very pretty, elegant in a whimsical kind of way, eclectic and full of flamboyant art on the walls. Color and comfort are two things that strike you when you first […]
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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
Peruvian food is one of my favorites, so the little chicken and I headed to Dr. Limón Ceviche Bar. I wanted to try different types of ceviches, and she was just hungry. Diagnóstico Reservado Ceviche – Red Pepper, Ginger. This was the best ceviche I have had in years. It dropped a flavor bomb on […]
It all started with a phone call with a friendly voice at the other end. You could hear Marcia Chang’s smile as she answered questions about the restaurant’s opening hours and menu. The positive vibe continued as we entered this colorful restaurant with reggae music playing in the background. I was eager to try Jamaican- […]
Barley is a restaurant that has been on my radar for a while. The reason it took so long to visit is that it is open mainly for dinner, at 5:00 pm, and I am primarily a lunch person. With the time change, came the light, so why not have an early dinner? The inside […]
We happened to be in the area and decided to make a quick stop for a speedy lunch. This was not our first time here, so we knew ahead of time that the food was not exceptional. It is always good though and accomplishes what all hungry diners want – to fill their bellies with […]
It was my birthday, and my brother was pre-disposed to indulging me. La Mar by Gastón Acurio has always been one of my favorites restaurants in Miami, but I had not been there in a while. It was so pleasant to sit right next to the ocean on a breezy Saturday afternoon. It felt a […]
