Magic City Flavors & Destinations
This year I have been visiting restaurants that are closer to home. La Isla del Encanto is a place that I drive by almost daily but never really tried the food, except for some bacalaítos (cod fritters) that I picked up to go a while back. It was time to give their food a proper […]

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 […]

I recently traveled to San José, California for work and did not get to visit any of the many Asian restaurants except for a musty Japanese place that smelled like old socks. On the way back to Miami I was wondering where I could go to make up for this faux pas and Lan Pan […]

Moon Thai & Japanese Restaurant is very close to where I live. For some reason we had not been there in years, too busy exploring other places, so on a rainy Saturday afternoon, we decided to have lunch in one of our old haunts. The décor was the same, pretty as always – modern, colorful with […]

A friend of mine recommended Finka Table & Tap, it looked good, but I thought that it was far away from home. When I found out that it was less than fifteen minutes away from where I live, there was no time to waste; we had to run to this restaurant and try the […]

Peruvian food will never cease to fascinate me so I am always on the lookout for restaurants that I have never tried before. Dr. Limón Ceviche Bar has been around since 2012 and I can’t believe that I missed it for such a long time. One of my dining companions, Miss G., was in town. […]

It was a rainy Saturday and the chickens and I were ravenous and too lazy to cook. We headed to Jimmy’z Kitchen in Pinecrest, a restaurant that had been on my bucket list for a while. The inside was casual, really casual. The outside seating, colorful and cozy but it was impossible to sit there that […]

This restaurant was right in our neighborhood, barely ten minutes from where we live. I was curious about the flavors we may encounter. Once inside, on the right was the Sushi section; on the left was the Teppanyaki Grill. Tuna Tataki was what we tried first from the Sushi side, it was nicely seared on […]

I have been watching this restaurant from afar for some time now but never dared to visit, it was always so full of people. It is in my neighborhood and I was curious as to why this little venue was getting so much attention from the locals. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the […]

This is a place where friends can meet and where families feel comfortable bringing the kids. No gourmet food at Woody’s Bar-B-Q Restaurant, but walking away with a full belly and a happy face is guaranteed. Woody’s Signature Baby Back Ribs were part of the lunch menu and came with two sides. As a side you […]

Aromas Del Perú was quite an intriguing place. I say that because even if the surroundings are quite cozy and welcoming, they are not exactly upscale, the decor can even be described as on the shabby-rustic-chic side. The food that arrives at the table though, with a luxurious amount of seafood, does leave you stunned; […]

We got a sudden hunger attack and headed straight to our dearest neighborhood restaurant. Moon Thai & Japanese Cuisine always calms our appetites. Salmon Sashimi is the perfect snack for hungry people: delectable, satiny slices of fresh, raw salmon with ginger, wasabi and delicate strands of carrot. This was pure flavor on the tongue, an […]
