ABZ Networking Crawl: Delray Marketplace
This month’s ABZs Networking Crawl was all the way out west at the Delray Marketplace. I hate that it’s such a long drive because I really do like it over there. There’s Frank’s Theatre with IMAX movies and a bowling alley, a bunch of great restaurants, and a few little shops and boutiques. I need an excuse to make […]

Another year of Boca Bacchanal has come and gone. For anyone who may be unfamiliar with this annual weekend-long culinary festival, Boca Bacchanal is full of food and wine events all supporting the Boca Raton Historical Society and Museum.

BocaLocals Hosts the First March Meatball Madness
A panel of foodies, including bloggers, critics, and media, visited a whole slew of restaurants throughout the month of March in search of the best meatball. The meatballs were judged on taste, texture, presentation, and originality — and there sure were a few very original takes on this traditional spaghetti-companion. BocaLocals hosted the event, and restaurants in and around Boca Raton were […]
Boca Events: Flavors 2014: Farm to Fork
Another Flavors event has come and gone and left me and my tummy good and stuffed. Held at the beautiful Sonoma House in Boca Raton, this year’s theme was “Farm to Fork.” There were certainly a number of healthy options to go around, but the desserts kind of blew them out of the water. Yep, […]
Delray Restaurant Review: Mussel Beach
Sometime during the past year, mussels have become one of my top five favorite foods. I have no idea how it happened, because I honestly used to cringe at the thought of them. Somehow I finally got smart and realized what I had been missing out on all those years. I’ve had my share of delicious […]
Downtown Delray Networking Crawl with ABZs of South Florida
I make it my job to be at just about every food and wine event in and around Boca, so when I was invited to join the ABZs of South Florida for their monthly Networking Crawl, you know I jumped at the opportunity! I had met the founder, Shana, at Palm Beach Food and Wine […]
Delray Restaurant Review: The Grove
One of my favorite areas in Downtown Delray definitely has to be Pineapple Grove. It’s small, quaint, and full of great restaurants, lots of which have outdoor seating (perfect for people watching!). One of the places I’ve been dying to try along this strip is The Grove. Its kitchen is tiny, the dining area is […]
Delray Restaurant Review: El Camino
I feel like I write about Mexican food too much. Are you tired of hearing about margaritas and guacamole? I don’t think I could ever tire of those two things… And so I have another Mexican restaurant review for you today. Sorry I’m not sorry.As I mentioned last week when I told you about my […]
The Brunch Trend
There seems to be a serious brunch trend going on. Restaurants are taking it to a whole new level, giving new meaning to the term ‘Sunday Funday.” It’s not just football and booze anymore, it’s unlimited Bloody Mary bars and breakfast treats.Some of the most legendary brunch spots are The Tin Muffin, Caffe Luna Rosa […]
Delray Restaurant Review: Japango
Would you believe me if I told you that the farther west you go in South Florida, the more vast and empty it gets? Yeah, it’s freaking weird. Huge open areas that go on for miles with…nothing. It’s a little scary actually, especially when the roads aren’t well lit and you’re driving them by yourself […]
