Boca Resort’s 501 East Pairing Dinner with Cigar City Brewing
Two beer dinners in one week! Who am I??? The whole craft beer thing is kicking my wine-loving self into some brand new territory, but I have to admit — I don’t hate it. As I mentioned before, there are definitely a few that I just cannot handle and that’s fine, but I’ve been discovering a few that I […]
The Rebel House Pairing Dinner with New Belgium Brewery
Boca gastro pub (and one of my absolute favorite places), The Rebel House, teamed up with Colorado-based New Belgium Brewing for a five-course pairing dinner for locals to enjoy. I was invited by the restaurant’s owners to come as their guest for the night. Chef/owner Michael Saperstein and sous chef Danielle Herring put together an awesome menu […]
Watermelon, Mango and Arugula Salad #SundaySupper
Watermelon, Mango and Arugula Salad is a colorful mix of fruit and veggies tossed with toasted pine nuts, dried cranberries, feta cheese and a fig jam vinaigrette to make a healthy and refreshing summer dish. It’s summer. Which means it’s HOT — unless you live in some frozen part of the world, in which case I’m […]

Creamy Gruyere Pasta with Shrimp, Tomatoes, and Mushrooms #CKMondaviHeros
Whole grain pasta mixed with a creamy, light gruyere cheese sauce, fresh jumbo shrimp, sweet cherry tomatoes, and sliced Baby Bella mushrooms make for a perfect summer meal, especially when paired with CK Mondavi white wine such as Chardonnay or one of their newest blends, Blonde Five. I don’t normally go for creamy pasta dishes. They’re often […]

Ft. Lauderdale Restaurant Review: Coco Asian Bistro
There aren’t many foods that I get serious cravings for.

Thai and […]
