Teresa and i try to do a "date night" every month. For May, we had a couple of things to celebrate as well. My birthday was on May 2 and Mother's Day was May 8. So we decided to wrap all three together and do dinner at Sage Restaurant in Tallahassee.
We revisited Kool Beanz Cafe for our April date night." We ordered several of their"starters" so we could explore the menu and enjoyed one of their award-winning desserts. This Tallahassee favorite has become one of ours as well.
My wife Teresa and I made our second visit to Growler Country here in Tallahassee last week. We had seen their Cuban sandwich on the menu on our first visit and promised ourselves that we would be back to check it out. It exceeded our expectations.
We did a second "date night" on our recent trip to Miami. We went to Luca Osteria and Bar which is located on Giralda Ave in Coral Gables. We enjoyed the meal, the service, and the ambiance. All in all, a great "wrap" for our trip down to Miami.
We made a second visit to Zitz Sum in Coral Gables, a contemporary Asian-inspired hybrid between Dim Sum & Izakaya that specializes in dumplings and small plates. They hit a home run again!
Visited Growler Country for an impromptu date night on Saturday. Teresa had seen a post about this local craft beer pub on the Tallahassee Foodies Facebook group recently. Definitely worth a visit!
Down in Miami this week. We hadn't made any dinner plans Tuesday night and walked around downtown Coral Gables to see what appealed to us. We decided to check out the Cebada Rooftop Restaurant and Raw Bar.
Teresa and I celebrated our eleventh wedding anniversary this past Saturday. I had booked us a table at one of our local favorites, Mimi's Table. Just a quick post to thank everyone who made it such a special night for us.
Teresa and I were in the mood for a quick break from dieting, so we decided to grab lunch at the Thai Place on Kerry Forest. We haven't visited since all this craziness started. We were glad to see they were still going and still putting out great food.
We finally visited Kool Beanz Cafe in Tallahassee for our November "date night." We had a very relaxed, enjoyable meal and we will definitely be returning to explore the menu more.
We continued to celebrate Teresa's birthday with a visit to Savour in downtown Tallahassee on Saturday night. We enjoyed the evening but after six months on really strict diets for both of us, we were almost overwhelmed by two big meals back to back!
Kicked of Teresa's sixtieth birthday celebration with a fabulous dinner at Mimi's Table here in Tallahassee. We can’t thank Will Lawson and his entire team enough for helping us celebrate.
