I eat a lot (as you may know), and I write about what I eat. The last time I did a restaurant recap, two and a half years ago, I had written about 44 restaurants in Key West. Now I am over seventy. I am limiting this particular list to […]
Last week, a friend asked if we had been to the new tapas-style place in La Concha yet, and I was confused. There was a new restaurant in town that I had not heard of? How could that be? My friend then let me know that they were running a […]
