King Of Pops

Coffee & Donuts

Rich, creamy coffee dotted with a Krispy Kreme donut hole…

pure genius!

It was love at first bite… or was it the second.

The coconut banana was a perfect summer day option, too. But, we both […]

Beautiful Restaurant

The Beautiful Restaurant

3 Short Ribs

That’s the generous portion served at The Beautiful Restaurant.

Short Ribs in Brown Gravy

This is pot roast’s richer, tastier cousin.

Incredible beef flavor was the hallmark of […]

Little Cuba

Vaca Frita

Mmm, vaca frita…. so good.

Tender beef braised in a garlic-y broth is shredded and pan fried. Then, it’s tossed with slivers of onion. Little Cuba decorates the plate with paper thin slices of fried plantain and congris. This is one great dish.

Taqueria El Dorado

Diablo Shrimp

This was a very tasty version of the dish. Fat, tender shrimp were doused in a perfectly spiced sauce. Dried chile peppers lent rich flavor and heat. The double dose of starch was our choice. They’d happily serve refried beans or tomatoes on […]

Tous Les Jours

Sweet Pumpkin Coffee Cake

This might be the best sweet at Tous Les Jours. It’s definitely our favorite. (…Or, is it one of those light and fluffy custard buns? Hmm.) Candied pumpkin chunks decorate the woven sweet bread that’s garnished with slivers of almond and black sesame seeds. […]

Papi’s Cuban & Caribbean Grill

Masitas De Puerco

Tender, garlic-y cubes of roast pork are pan fried and served topped with a generous mound of gorgeous caramelized onions.

Congris & Maduros

Both were close to perfection. And, we both commented that Papi’s congris might just be […]

Antico Pizza Napoletana

The Diavola Pizza

Sopressata, Pepperonata, & Bufalo

Very generously loaded with thin slivers of sopressata, those thin slivers get crispy at the edges. It is those crispy edges that are one of the highlights of this delectable flavor combination. The way that the […]

Sweet Potato Fries @ Burger King

Burger King’s Sweet Potato Fries

Burger King’s new menu makes an easy target. And, say what you will about most of the new additions. These sweet potato fries are really good. We’d say they hover somewhere just above other fast food fry options. If we’re starving, we’d pick […]

Mariscos La Riviera Nayarit

Marlin Tostada

Forget tuna salad, this is what’s for lunch!

Salsa & Extra Lime On The Side

This might not be the prettiest of salsas. But, it sure was good and spicy.

Sweet Hut Bakery

Coconut Tarts

Glazed with (apricot?) jelly and topped with a cherry, these moist little coconut tarts are some of the best coconut tarts we’ve ever tasted.

Stuffed with a super moist and rich coconut filling that’s one part cake and one part cookie, […]
