Well Fed On the Town

Sometimes you just really want a sandwich. That was the case one day during my South Beach adventure. And while the sandwich I ordered sounded good, I wasn’t expecting to be wowed. I mean a sandwich is just a sandwich, right?

I had passed Paninoteca European Eatery several times earlier in the week. I finally […]

f you read Well Fed On The Town, you know that I was recently in South Beach on business. I sampled a number of good (and not-so-good) restaurants while there and it was fun. But there was one little eatery that kept taunting me with it’s giant sign and promises of chocolately goodness . . […]

Sometimes it’s hard to talk about a restaurant experience because one part was good and another wasn’t. That is the case with Sushi Doraku on Lincoln Road in South Beach. This little sushi place is out of the way (it’s further up Lincoln Road than a lot of people venture) but I wanted to try […]
