VLOG: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN4ewLtYHUQ&t=10s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN4ewLtYHUQ&t=10s We went to Cocoa Beach with the goal of seeing the SpaceX Falcon 9 Starlink rocket launch. Tickets to see it up close and personal were sold out, so we saw it from Cocoa Beach and the view was honestly amazing. We observed it launch and felt and heard the rumble. While … Continue reading Cocoa Beach – Where to Stay, What to Eat, & What to Do
Last night we wanted to go out to eat somewhere where we could walk around and revel in the beauty Miami has to offer. Merrick Park in the Gables is the perfect place to eat, shop and walk around; therefore, that is where we went. For my birthday dinner on March 1st we went to … Continue reading Yard House in Coral Gables
If you have never been to a Las Vegas Cuban Cuisine restaurant or are just unfamiliar with their American dream come true story, read up on it on their website. To sum it up: The Vilariño family was among the fortunate 126,000 to come to the U.S. through the Mariel Boat Lift in 1980. In … Continue reading Las Vegas Cuban Cuisine in Downtown Doral
I had never been to Snappers in Key Largo before, but it is apparently very popular (3K reviews and 4 stars on Trip Advisor). We were driving back home from the Marathon Seafood Festival and were desperate for a bite to eat. My parents ate at Snappers a while ago and were not impressed. Considering … Continue reading Snappers Oceanfront Restaurant & Bar in Key Largo
The unique Sawa Restaurant & Lounge is located in the beautiful Shops at Merrick Park. The eatery offers a contemporary Mediterranean and Japanese dual-concept menu, along with seating inside and outside. What I find fascinating about Sawa is that it is NOT a fusion restaurant. I love fusion restaurants, but it is refreshing to see … Continue reading Sawa Restaurant & Lounge – Perfect for Special Occasions!
Shibui Japanese Restaurant is a family-run eatery specializing in creative maki rolls & sushi. I know it as the sushi place where you dine while sitting on pillows on the floor. In my youth (haha, I'm almost 23), I used to go to this sushi spot a lot. Before last week, I hadn't been to … Continue reading Shibui Japanese Restaurant in Miami
I have been wanting to go to Raglan Road for a while now. I made the intelligent decision to make a reservation for one of the nights that we would be in Orlando. We almost didn't make it. The long wait times at the parks made making our 8:45PM reservation implausible, so I called up … Continue reading Raglan Road – Life and Soul of Ireland in Disney Springs
I went to Texas Roadhouse a couple of nights ago. It was my second time dining in a Texas Roadhouse establishment (1st time in this location, though). I have been wanting to go back for a while now. I used to pass it every day on my way to work and every time I did … Continue reading Texas Roadhouse – Better Than I Remember
I had the pleasure of dining at Roasters 'N Toasters, a contemporary eatery featuring traditional NYC-style dishes, for the first time last week. It is apparently rated the #1 deli in Florida. Last year, I visited NYC twice (in October & December) and both times I ate at the famous Katz Deli. So, it is … Continue reading Roasters ‘N Toasters – A Little Piece of NY in Miami
For Mother's Day we decided to dine at our beloved Basilico. I rarely eat Italian food – but when I do, Basilico is the go-to. They make my absolute favorite pasta dish (and I went to Rome & Venice) – it is called Ravioli di Gorgonzola e Pera con Salsa di Fico (Fatti in Casa); the blend … Continue reading Basilico – Best Italian Restaurant in Doral
