Finally catching up on journaling and wanted to share a great night out we had back in September. The weather had cooled off and I thought it would be nice to have our dinner "alfresco." When I looked for options, I came across Z Bardhi's Italian Cuisine which is located near the entrance to the Killearn Lakes subdivision north of Tallahassee. It seemed the perfect setting for our September "date night."
Made our second visit to J's Asian Street Food on Friday. We both had had a long week and wanted something simple and relaxing. We had some interesting new dishes. We left satiated and relaxed.
Lucilla has been on our “try it” list for quite a while. They specialize in New American cuisine that blends southern traditions with contemporary elements to create some very unique dishes. I was in the mood to try someplace new for our August date night and decided it was time for us to visit.
The Huntsman Tallahassee recently opened. A number of folks from the Tallahassee Foodies group have recommended it. We had a great meal. The Huntsman is definitely one of Tallahassee's new "hot spots."
We decided we wanted to try someplace new for the holiday weekend. We were not in the mood for a heavy meal and decided we would try someplace that did "small" bites. We've had J's Asian Street Food on our list since just after it opened and decided to swing by.
My wife Teresa took me for an early Father's Day dinner at Il Lusso. It is an Italian steakhouse in downtown Tallahassee. We hadn't been there for a while and I was in the mood for a good steak.
One of the things we were missing from our time in Miami was a great tapas bar. We checked out the new Casa Tapas and Cantina here in Tallahassee last night and it was fabulous!
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!
