I hope you are all having a fabulous 2015! My new year started off on an amazing note. I hope that means this year has nothing but great things ahead! Typically, our New Year’s consists of my husband working and me at my in-laws watching their neighbors blow up anything they can find. But that’s…
An event where I can swear a flannel shirt and jeans? Yes please! Last night I was lucky enough to attend the annual Cows ‘n Cabs event, benefiting the Community Food & Outreach Center and Elevate Orlando. So I borrowed some fancy cowboy boots and hit the town to get-down at Winter Park’s West Meadow. …
Yes, this is another view of a John Rivers restaurant. No, I don’t get paid for any portion of these things. Having a review in a title for this blog post isn’t even fair. I’m pretty confident that at this point in life, John Rivers could fry just about anything up and I would eat…
I haven’t been to the Olive Garden in YEARS. Perhaps about 5 years, and that was for a baby shower. I can’t remember the last time I actually went there to eat. And if I did eat, I’m pretty sure I only ate bread-sticks and salad. So imagine my surprise to learn that they have…
The foodie scene is exploding in Orlando and I’m just so happy that I’m here to eat all the food that these amazing chefs are dishing out. The 4 Rivers Smokehouse has FINALLY opened out near the University of Central Florida. I say FINALLY because my husband and I have been counting down since the…
The birthday boy picked one of his favorite restaurants for his dinner, Hawkers Asian Street Fare on Mills Ave. in Orlando. The menu is big and deep and really offers a wide selection of asian-inspired food. This is the perfect place to go with a group and just order lots of different small plates and…
I’ve talked about Cask & Larder before. It’s one of our favorite restaurants in Orlando. Especially for brunch. This weekend I took my birthday boy out for a Sunday brunch at our favorite spot and it didn’t disappoint! We started with drinks, just because. I had the Whiskey Smash (bourbon, muddled mint, oranges, bubbles), and…
You know much much I love talking about food, so I honored to be part of the Yelp Elite Squad. We get invited to Yelp events all around town, many times before others can even try new places. It’s a great perk. And those Yelp folks know how to throw a party! This year, they…
It’s no secret that I don’t like to cook. My husband likes to cook. And I love to eat.So it works out pretty well. I just found out that one of our very favorite Central Florida chefs is coming out with a new cookbook! (And I think I’m going to have to get it for…
Winter Park is so lucky to have not only a great chocolate store, but the owners doing some amazing things and are just amazing people. You know I love Peterbrooke Chocolate, I mean, I even had my birthday party there! They invited some bloggers over Friday to test one of their new creations, the Broissant. …
