I saw the construction and the sign for Mrs. Mac’s new building for what seemed like a really long time. After inquiring, I learned that the new location up the street is, in fact, a second location and they would not be moving or closing the original location.

First of all, 48 degrees in May is an unacceptable outside temperature for a Floridian. Yet there I was, arriving in Milwaukee, to 48 degrees. In a sundress. With a fleece (at least I was kind of prepared). And flip flops. I went outside to meet my friend Bill, and I realized that I had no idea what kind of car he drove.

Last week, a lovely couple from New York came down to Florida, so nine of us got together at Il Mercato in Hallandale for loads of wine, tons of food and a good time. Continue reading Mystery Wine… and Dinner at Il Mercato

It is in the Fontainbleu hotel on Miami Beach so the place is huge (Hakkasan is about a 10 minute walk from where we valeted the car) and the fact that is undoubtedly crazy-expensive, off we went for what I hoped to be a nice birthday dinner.
