Food. Wine. Travel. Life.
Miami Spice came and went way too fast! Same story, different year. Tuyo, Caffe Vialetto, DB Bistro, and Escopazzo were the last targets on my long, must-try list. Located on the 8th floor of the Miami Culinary Institute, Tuyo never ceases to impress me. When dining there, you must arrive before sundown and take in the spectacular […]
Read More…Turks and Caicos is not a destination I had planned on visiting this year (or ever again). The last time I visited was over a decade ago. That first trip was a glamorous, work related one which involved working out, make up artists, hairdressers, professional calendar photo-shoots, and a lot of dancing. The previous year I had visited Jamaica for the same reason: “work.” I was so in love with Jamaica then that the thought of Turks and Caicos did not wow me as much.
Read More…September 2013 Cleansing. A necessary evil. I usually work out three to four times a week. I eat organic and/or pasture-raised foods as much as possible and drink 8-10 glasses of water daily without exception. On the weekends all hell breaks loose. That’s when I eat, and I drink like there’s no tomorrow. Once in […]
Read More…Three nights, three very different adventures. There’s no other way around it: Miami Spice is the way to go during August and September in South Florida. Thinking of trying out a new restaurant? Go now. Want to return to an old favorite and save a bit on tried and true dishes? Go now. Moral of […]
Read More…More dining, more spice. It just keeps getting better! This past weekend I dined using the Miami Spice menu at Gotham Steak and Macchialina. These two restaurants are completely different from one another. I don’t know how the other restaurants participating in Miami Spice can top these. I know it’s not a contest but I just […]
Read More…Second only to the South Beach Wine & Food Festival, Miami Spice is my favorite time of the year in South Florida. There’s so much to choose from and never enough time to try everything. Oh, you don’t know what Miami Spice is? Really? Here’s a quick tutorial. Miami Spice is held during the months of […]
Read More…I went to Dallas last week. The last time I was there was while I was still in college. Who remembers that far back? Wasn’t that pre-internet? Pre-social media? When Mother’s Day came around recently, I received a big surprise. My hubby surprised me with tickets to see the Phillip Phillips/John Mayer concert. MAJOR. BROWNIE. POINTS. […]
Read More…I can’t believe it has been five months since the festival. I also can’t believe it took me so long to participate. As a South Florida local, this is the absolute “must attend” event of the year. There are so many events available that choosing one becomes increasingly difficult every year. There truly is something […]
Read More…The Whet Palette premiered it’s first post on January 13th. That same night, I attended Pomegranates and Roses: A taste of Persia! What a perfect way to kick off the new year! The event was held by the Saffron Supper Club at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden. Cooking for us would be Maude Eaton, Sara […]
