Long time no post.....but, I'm back and I have a lot planned. I went to Universal Orlando & Disney World last weekend (MLK weekend) – boy, was everything packed. On Friday night, we opted to avoid the crowds and craziness by going to a restaurant outside of the parks. We were seriously craving sushi, so … Continue reading Seito Sushi (Sand Lake)
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
Mr. & Mrs. Bun has been featured on the Food Network, Telemundo51, Miami New Times and Miami Eater (along with receiving well deserved acclaim on Yelp). I went to Mr. & Mrs. Bun for the second time today for lunch and it did not disappoint. It was just as good as the … Continue reading Mr. & Mrs. Bun – Incredible Peruvian Sandwich Restaurant
I was pleasantly surprised by how splendid Serendip-a-Tea was. It may be hidden and not as popular as its neighbor, Hole in the Wall, but it is not to be disregarded. The place is quirky and distinctive. In addition to its heartwarming display of art/decorations and unique teacups, it provides excellent, personalized service. … Continue reading Serendip-A-Tea – Scintillating, Spry & Special!
Cozy Corner is an old-fashioned mom-and-pop diner that serves breakfast favorites and homestyle comfort food. I happened upon it because Crackers Casual Dining had over an hour wait time. For the record, Cozy Corner was by no means empty – we waited about 10 minutes before getting seated. It appears to be a favorite among the … Continue reading Cozy Corner – Cute Breakfast Spot in Miami Springs
Jaguar Latin-American Kitchen was the first place that introduced me to ceviche and I quite possible could not have chosen a better place to do so. Jaguar has always been ahead of its time – it is a place that seems like it would reside in New York or LA, but shines bright … Continue reading Jaguar Latin-American Kitchen
My father always boasts of his lovely sashimi lunches at Maido Japanese Restaurant. I finally got to go and revel in its authenticity and freshness. This is not the place for fancy, Americanized sushi rolls – it is, however, a laid-back restaurant where locals and tourists go for fresh fish. I would say it … Continue reading Maido Japanese Restaurant – Faultless, Fast, & Fresh
I have been to Crackers Casual Dining a couple of times now and I always enjoy it. The tropical patio layout, live entertainment, and homey Southern-inspired fare distinguishes it from all the brunch spots in the city. The relaxed atmosphere is popular among locals, understandably so. We chose Crackers for our Sunday brunch … Continue reading Crackers Casual Dining – Blissful & Booming Brunch
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
