cuisine
From street-food to fine dining, traditional Italian to Asian-Fusion, being well-versed in global cuisine is the first step to culinary mastery.
Tiramisu
The DelBello family is, quite literally, from the old country, namely the Jewish ghetto of Rome. There's big, jolly papa Shawn, with his deadpan humor and romantic accent, whose cuisine makes people groan and roll their eyes with joy. Sweet little Ana, wife of Shawn, takes care of the customers, two cute and very American kids and a huge brindle mastiff named Trump, all with quiet, smiling serentity.

The Cove Cafe Restaurant & Grill
The pandemic, lockdown and all our favourite eateries are on a Takeout basis only. No sitting in a comfy homey locale enjoying an appetizer followed by a scrumptious entree and finished off with a sweet desert. Cooking became the daily grind. No relief, even in this quaint ‘adult lifestyle’ community. Then The Cove Café & Grill stepped in and up.

The Café
It seems to always be the most non-descript places that are the best. This emerald in the rough is a slice of the best things from Earth. When a restaurant becomes a local hangout in a tourist town, you know they have it going on. The Café on Southard is hands down my favorite restaurant in all Key West. It is not the most expensive nor the most marketed. Yet, they do so many things the best way.

Marakesh
Tucked away down a narrow side alley just off the bustling South Street, Marakesh has an unassuming front entrance. You have to knock on the heavy oak door for admission, and it feels like you are entering your own personal Narnia as you pass through the heavy drapes and enter the restaurant.

Dine Out Dates
Dine Out Dates This happened back in the days when dating someone occurred face to face, you found special places to be together, ventured far from the maddening crowds. Sat quietly and partook of wine, occasional glass of Merlot, and food, exchanged small talk across a table. Before on-line-ville, drug addled dance parties, dating sites and being told to …get a room. Not so long ago I decide to ask the man I’d been part of this scene with, several decade ago, what he remembered.

When The Moon Hits Your Eye.
I've never really been in love with food like I'm about to tell you. But, one day I was walking up and down the hall of fame in the late 80's, young and impressionable, I thought the world is my oyster, I was up for anything, suddenly my stomach began to growl, letting me know that it was time to eat. I looked up and down Hollywood Boulevard and while there were many eateries, nothing caught my eye, until I began to cross Las Palmas avenue I looked to the right of me, nothing. ThenI looked to the left of me going south and there it was, Miceli's an Italian restaurant that has apparently been in business for a long time, so I decided to give it a try.

The Best Little Tasty Treats in Orlando
There is a lot to do, a lot to see, and a lot to experience in beautiful Orlando, FL. Theme parks, concerts, International Drive alone is its one sort of amazing tourist attraction . . . but how about our amazing food? I'm not talking about theme park restaurants either. Let go of the hold "Mythos" or "Be Our Guest" has on your minds because I'm only talking about the cream of the crop of local eateries!
