The large, on the wall version of the tiny menu Kojin Noodle Bar occupies a tiny space on Southard Street. Formerly, for about five minutes, it was a wing place, which I never had the chance to try. Oh well. Fortunately something good has moved in, and it is […]

What could be better than a mile long wine tasting? A mile long wine tasting followed by an over the top wine dinner. More on the dinner on Monday. Today I will focus on Duval Uncorked, one of the main events during the annual Key West Food and Wine Festival.
The Key West Food and Wine Festival has become one of the most anticipated events of the year. It draws a crowd from all over the place, and for good reason: A) It is in January, in Florida; B) It’s not so overpriced and crowded, like some other festivals around […]
I had been meaning to check out the Smokin‘ Tuna since they opened a couple of months ago, but just did not have the opportunity. Then, last weekend, after I had registered for the Hog‘s Breath 5K, as we were making our way up Duval, we saw a guy outside […]
Normally, I review one restaurant or meal at a time. This past weekend, however, deserves a recap of its own. Since my cousin was coming to town and we have many of the same interests, mainly revolving around eating, drinking and a love-hate relationship with running, I planned the eating […]

Fantasy Fest always brings a bunch of fun events to choose from. Generally, my favorite is the Masquerade March, a parade on Friday night where locals and visitors alike dress up, drink heavily and frolic in the streets, stopping for drinks along the way. In 2009, my shoe broke […]
I usually stay away from the political discussions here in favor of more fun (and sometimes less stressful) topics like food and wine, running and marathoning (I have a half in December and due to doggie duty have not started training. Oops), travel and now, the dog’s world. But this […]
I have indulged in to-go goodies from Croissants De France in the past – a to die for Nutella beignet or a good cappuccino – but have never eaten there until last week. Although it was very hot outside, the garden was shaded, fanned and comfortable. The menu is filled […]
Key West is a funny town. You can drink until the wee hours of the morning, but try to get a good meal late at night and you are pretty much out of luck. Let me clarify: by “decent meal” I mean one that is served (not a walk-up counter […]
