Milkbar Birthday Cake, Cookies and Truffles
A few weeks ago, I was watching the Bake Squad on Netflix. I regularly watch TV shows about food. While watching the show, I got a craving to eat cake. Since the host was constantly raving about her Milkbar, I decided to make an order. I got a coupon from the Netflix website. I do not know if the coupon is still around. So, do not count on it. After browsing through what was available, I got a little bit of everything. I didn’t order pies because I do not like eating pies. The cakes are a little bit expensive,...
Sazon Cubano Restaurant Travel Miami Beach Flans and Three Milks
Today, I wanted to write about what I ate this weekend. I went up to Miami Beach with my family. Once the rains came, we got like super hungry. So, we decided to eat at Sazon Restaurant.

You have two choices of dip: mojo and black beans grounded into a fine paste. Mother had pork and my brother had a sandwich. Mine was made of chicken. It was really yummy, with all the elements in...

Rodizio Steak and Pasta Restaurant Barcelo Foodie
Today, I wanted to make a foodie bog about the Rodizio. The Rodizio is a restaurant inside the Barcelo Maya Palace. It does both steak and pasta, just like it says in the sign. Of course, it isn’t fair to summarize the experience in that single sentence. So, I am going to narrate the entire dining experience. This should give you a general idea as to what to expect of your visit. The first thing we had to do was get a reservation. All the fancy restaurants in the Barcelo Resort are by reservations. We chose to dine on...
Moon Palace El Manglar Buffet and Snack Bar
Today, I wanted to blog about the food situation in Moon Palace Nizuc. We had a day pass that covered all my meals. So, I went with my family to the buffet. The first thing worth mentioning is the decoration. It has plenty of cool looking lights, especially in the entrance. Lights is the general theme décor of moon palace. The buffet has an exterior section for folks that want to eat their food, while having a nice view. Due to the temperature, we chose to eat on the inside. In the buffet, the waiters are the ones...
