Crudo Love

My newest adventure in dining has been La Savina restaurant at the Mondrian South Beach. With it’s unique lobby with its interesting black staircase makes your experience an Alice in Wonderland trip.

Better than Potato Chips.

Whenever you go to a Cuban restaurant and don’t know what kind of appetizer to order, try these banana chips called Mariquitas. They come with a mojo sauce that works really well with these golden sweet and crispy treats. You can find them at Little Havana Restaurant in North Miami.

I Feel Crabby Today!

Not really! But I did enjoy this homemade crab cake appetizer made by my Babes. It was layered with pineapple, cucumber slice, mint leaf, spicy pepper cream sauce with a dab of guava on top. It was savory, spicy and sweet. The cucumber refreshed my palate and I was in heaven. Actually I went for seconds!!
