Rita’s- Custard and Frozen Ice (West Palm Beach)

I spent last summer in Philadelphia for work, where I discovered Rita’s and became pretty obsessed. Rita’s is famous for their custard and frozen ice with a slogan of “Ice-Custard Happiness”. Their frozen ice is the perfect combination of ice and liquid with a great texture and a lot of flavor. I especially love their […]

Genuine Taste and Experience- Michael’s Genuine Food and Drink (Design District)

Last night my mom and sister came down from Delray Beach with my aunt and did some sightseeing in South Beach and I was going to meet up with them for dinner. Due to the traffic from Spring Break on the causeways, plus just normal Friday traffic heading to South Beach, we decided they’d meet […]

CLOSED: High Spring Fashion… In Frosting, Sprinkles, and Wrappers- Cupcake Couture (Gluten-Free Cupcakes, Delray Beach)

Unfortunately Cupcakes Couture has now closed… The internet has some great resources for people with celiac sprue/gluten intolerance such as tips on how to adjust, list of gluten-free products, and restaurants to check out. A great resource that I’ve used to discover some of my gluten-free restaurant finds is Gluten Free Registry (http://www.glutenfreeregistry.com/), where you […]

CLOSED: No Gridlock of Flavors Here- City Hall the Restaurant (American Bistro,Omni/Midtown)

I always get excited to hear about new restaurants opening up in my neighborhood and last year I was excited to read about City Hall the Restaurant planning to open just across the street. I thought it was cool to hear about how it was envisioned by Steve Haas, who helped get Miami Spice started. […]

A Good Gluten-Free Grocery- Nutrition Cottage (Delray Beach, Gluten-Free)

NOTE: Nutrition Cottage has since moved to Boynton Beach a little bit north of Delray Beach. I haven’t had a chance to visit that location yet, but assume it’s probably similar to the location in Delray that’s written about below. In my search for various gluten-free products I had remembered learning there was a health […]

Mellow Mushroom Pizza Bakers (Delray Beach, Gluten-Free Pizza)

My mom and my sister flew in this morning to West Palm and I headed up to my family’s place in Delray Beach to get lunch with them and my aunt. We went to Mellow Mushroom Pizza Bakers because I found out they have gluten-free pizza and my mom is gluten-free like me. I love […]

Sensory Orgasm: UMT- Ultra Music Festival (House/Electronic Music, March, Downtown Miami)

Ultra is one of Miami’s biggest events and it’s supposedly the largest House/electronic music festival in the world! About 165,000 people this year, most dressed in neon, descended on Bayfront Park for three-days for a sick line-up of house music artists- including Avicii, Tiesto, Steve Aoki, Benny Benassi, Justice, Kaskade, David Guetta, and more. The […]

A Hidden Refuge Inside Urban Brickell- Simpson Hammock Park

One of my goals for my Spring Break was to do something productive and fun every day of the week and ideally blog about it. A few days the blogging part didn’t happen (such as being in Key West understandably or recovering from it) or I did something fun but didn’t blog about it (watching […]

PF Chang’s China Bistro (Gluten-Free, Chinese, Brickell)

PF Chang’s has been on the top of my gluten-free list for a long time. I went a lot back in Portland when it came out with its gluten-free Chinese menu and I’ve kept going since moving to Miami. PF Changs does a great job of making their signature dishes gluten-free without losing the great […]

St. Patrick’s Day in Miami/Brickell!

Miami might not seem like a typical place to have an awesome St. Patrick’s Day, but it in fact is one of the best nights of the year in Miami. Part of that is due to the odd abundance of Irish bars throughout Miami, but especially in Brickell. Of the 11 main bars in Brickell […]
