While indulging in several glasses too many at Maloney and Porcelli, I asked my friend Tracey where to go the next day for happy hour, as we were meeting a college friend. Now, to me “happy hour” means “half price drinks and chicken wings“. She suggested Casellula, which is none […]

I recently got an invitation to try Gimme A Burger in Pembroke Pines, and since it doesn’t take much convincing to get me to eat a burger, naturally I readily accepted. Now, I will say that I find the name a little off-putting, but I was intrigued by the concept […]
Over the past several years, I have hosted Thanksgiving dinner twelve times. The two that I missed were when our house was under construction after some water damage, and when we were preparing to move. Other than that, it has been all turkey (and stuffing, and potatoes, and…) all the time. I […]
Gelato, pastries, a full grocery store with fresh fish and meats, as well as cheeses, and several different restaurants make up Eataly, where I swore I died and went to food heaven. Seriously, I could have wondered the crowded areas of Eataly for hours on end. But that was not […]
The folks at Massage Envy Spa South Florida recently sent over a gift card so I could try out the massage services. It’s a rough life, but someone has to take one for the team. They also sent a gift card for one lucky reader. Enter to win below.

While most dinners for us tend to include wine, they can’t all be called “wine dinners“. Of course, once we planned this New York trip, we started contacting the winos – er, wine lovers – that we know there to connect for dinner. Monday night brought us to Tribeca Grill with […]
Was dinner at Le Bernardin the best meal I ever had? Quite possibly. It started as a birthday gift. We were sending my in-laws to Le Bernardin for dinner while they were on a trip to New York. It then occurred to me that we had to be in New […]
I remember standing on the balcony of my very first apartment in New York waving to the tourists on the double-decker bus. We had no furniture yet, so our 400 square feet seemed rather spacious, and the balcony? Well two people could stand out there, but I won’t say it […]
When my friend Donna suggested Square One for dinner the other night, I was a little hesitant. Naturally I said yes, because any time someone else comes up with a plan (so I don’t have to), it is a good thing. Plus, she has good taste.
