When I learned The Strip House, in The Reach Resort, was closing, I was disappointed, but not surprised. On each visit, the expansive dining room was mostly empty, except for the nude women decorating the walls. Even they looked bored.

Three years ago, on our first July 4th with Babka, we left her safely at home with some treats and the TV on while we went out to dinner and to see the fireworks. We went out. We came home. Babka was happy to see us, and she was not bothered […]
I will admit that I was a little hesitant to get a second dog (for about five seconds, until Latke climbed into my lap, then I was smitten.) After all, having one (high maintenance) dog is quite a bit of work, so I naturally assumed that the second one would […]
The universally asked question by clients planning vacations is “When should I book my trip to get the best prices? Should I book early or wait until the last minute?” My father likes to answer any question, particularly those related to his accounting practice, with “it depends,” but the truth is, […]
Finding Cero Bodega is half the battle. This lovely pool bar/restaurant is located within the new Marker Resort, at the back of the pool area. It is a gorgeous and serene, and can turn an ordinary lunch into a vacation day. Because it feels like vacation, you may even indulge […]

I have been in Key West long enough that it is time to start adding some restaurant and activity updates. We’ve been to Onlywood several times, including once this week. I was sick with a bad cold, but did not want to cancel plans we’d had for weeks, plus, it […]
I hadn’t been to Gulfstream in a while, and now I’ve been twice in two weeks. We were invited to try out Brio Tuscan Grille’s new summer menu, The Art of Grilling, a 3 course menu for $26.95/person. I’ll admit I was skeptical. I don’t frequent large chain restaurants, so I was […]
Somehow in the past six years I have not made it to the Key West Botanical Gardens. Why? No idea. It just hasn’t happened. So, last week, I noticed in the newspaper that the first Sunday of every month is free for locals. Well, you can’t beat free. Plus, they […]
Often times, I am invited to try a restaurant and even the idea of a free meal doesn’t get me excited. But, when I had to miss a media tasting at Frankey’s Sports Bar because I was sick, I was bummed. Fortunately for me, I was invited back.
