Wine is a bit of a tricky subject. Most people drink it. Few people really know the intricacies of pairing it well. However, on those rare occasions in which you just happen to stumble upon an amazing food and wine pairing, the results are phenomenal–like an explosion in your mouth…
Not to sound pretentious, but there are bartenders and then there are mixologists. Bartenders are perfectly happy pouring a beer or mixing together a vodka and soda. Mixologists, on the other hand, are like mad–drunken–scientists: mixing up concoctions that have never been seen before. Iliya Dimitrov is the latter and…
This week everyone is all Craft Beer Week this and Craft Beer Week that, including us because, obviously! Don’t get us wrong, we love our craft beer, but there are other food and drink related events going on this week and we thought some of you might like to know…
Well, summer might be well on its way, but it’s looking like we’re going to have a pretty awesome weekend in terms of weather. Time to enjoy it while you still can. If you’re looking for things to do indoors or out, we have a list of five food and…

Mother’s Day is about showing the woman who brought you–or your children–into the world that you appreciate her efforts. Not only did she carry you–or, again, your children–around for nine months, but she’s had to put up with your crap ever since. She kind of deserves a round of applause…
These days, everyone is all local this, sustainable that. While it’s great that the world is waking up to the benefits of a local, sustainable food system, it still has a long way to go. Yeah, we’re buying fruit and veg from farmer’s markets as much as possible. We’re trying…
The poor woman had to put up with you parasitically stealing all her energy for nine months. She then had to deal with your screaming and crying throughout the night, your terrible two’s, and your hellacious mood swings of pubescence. Let’s be honest: she seriously deserves some credit. Actually, a…
Obviously, people are pretty pissed about the lack of labeling on Genetically Modified Foods–a.k.a GMOs or GE foods. Since California’s Proposition 37 failed last fall, anti-GMO groups across the country have rallied together to get labeling initiative put on state legislative agendas. Some have held up better than others–Florida’s House…
While we understand that restaurant people need some time off, it can be a real disappointment when you really want to go somewhere specific and it’s closed. Whether it’s not open for lunch, closed on Mondays, or you slacked on arriving before closing time, it sucks when you can’t satiate…
Just like individual days, every month of the year celebrates a different dish. January is National Hot Tea month. Boring. February is National Canned Food Month. Ugh. March is National Caffeine Awareness Month. Lame. April: National Grilled Cheese Month. Slightly Better. Luckily, we’ve made it to May. This month is…
South Florida may be one of the yachting capitals of the world, but it’s not often that you find yourself sailing, drinking rose, enjoying the flavors of Mediterranean food. Well, we hate to break it you to: it’s most likely not going to happen this year either. Unless, of course,…
Local business people like to recognize each other on the civic level at the Chamber of Commerce. That’s nice and all, but it’s kind of small fry deal. Not a bad thing–not exactly worthy of national news. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, however, is a kind of a big deal…

You better get ready. This Sunday is, like, the second biggest drinking holiday in the world–well, we don’t actually know if that’s true, but it should be. The time has come to release that inner Mexican and have a good time. We have the list of ten places to celebrate…
Spring — or, for us, the beginning of wet season — if officially here. And just like the weather, the South Florida food and drink scene is heating up this weekend. Whether you’re into laid-back gardening, big-bet horseracing, or getting your drink on, there is something to keep you occupied…
It’s that time of year again. Cinco de Mayo: the time in which is it expected to consume massive amounts of tequila. We know, you’re probably dusting off the old Jimmy Buffet margarita machine, but just so you know, you do have other options. Camarena Tequila compiled some tequila cocktail…
Some food items elicit intense reactions. New Yorkers smear any pizza anywhere outside of their dear city limits. Chicagoans eschew hot dogs without their traditional toppings. Kansas City residents scoff at any other barbecue. While each city tends to have its own special dish, good burgers can be found pretty…
It’s a battle royal that pits three local charities against one another for the chance to receive a percentage of the pie. Pizza pies, that is. On Tuesday, May 21, at 6 p.m. at Steve’s Wood Fired Pizza, the Tri-County Humane Society, the Pap Corps, and Catherine’s Hope for a…
