 Owner Sally is on hand to offer a smile to every diner. Cafe Seville has long been regarded (by me, and many others) as one of the best restaurants in Fort Lauderdale. It is not trendy. The menu hardly changes. The room is dark. So what is so great about it? The food, the service and the friendliness of the owners. What more could you want? Continue reading Cafe Seville, Fort Lauderdale  Any weekend that starts like this is going to be good.
 A good start to the meal. Although I tend to frequent independently owned restaurants, as Key West has plenty of them, once in a while a chain serves a purpose. You know what you are going to get. This weekend, before the big hundredth birthday bash, we went to McCormick and Schmick’s for dinner with my in-laws.
 A good start. We had plans to go out to dinner with friends in November, which became December.

I have to admit when I go to restaurants owned by “celebrity chefs” I am usually a little skeptical. There is a lot of hype, and it is supposed to be good, but will it? The “celebrity chef” is not usually in the kitchen, so it is a matter of how well his or her staff is trained to replicate the recipes and how well the front of the house staff is trained to take care of diners. Continue reading Michy’s, Miami There are so many great things about life in Key West. I will come up with an entire list soon, but in the meantime, I will share one of the things that I love. It often feels like a very small town. Continue reading Reason #26 Why I Love Key West |
