Miami Beach Revisited Colin Street
I recently went back to Miami Beach with my family. I used to visit the place often back when I lived in Hialeah. Hialeah became quite infamous due to the snow. It doesn’t snow, but the movie folks seem to think so. Anyhow…Since I live in Kendall now, it is quite a far away to visit Miami Beach on a weekly basis. The ride there was pleasant enough. You need to get there super early to get parking. We didn’t enter the beach per say. We had come there to eat at Manolo. We wondered about while digesting the food....
Manolo Revisited Foodie Travel
It had been ages since I visited Manolo. It is not that the restaurant got bad. Rather, we moved pretty far away from Miami Beach. It became a real pain to visit that beach and all the places around it. So, this weekend we worked up the energy to visit Manolo again. It was decked out for the FIFA event. At night, the place gets super crowded with fans. This is why it is important to visit it super early if you just want to eat food. We ordered the usual: hotdogs and pizza. Mom had breakfast. It was all...
Miami Beach How it Used to Be 2013
I wanted to show you some old Miami beach photos. They were taken in 2013. It is incredible to think that more than 11 years have passed. I feel old. Sigh…Then again, time is relative.

The buildings remain. However, the beach is not the same. These days you take five steps before falling into a cliff. The hurricanes took a...
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. They are under new management, so the food is a little different. We started with the appetizers, mariquitas. They are chips made of banana. 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...
Sazon Cubano Miami Beach Foodie Restaurant Review
On the weekend, I went to Miami Beach with my family. We packed light in order to eat food after we got bored of splashing about. We chose to eat at Sazon. I have done foodie reviews of this restaurant before. It is fun to see how it changes throughout the years. Sazon has a new owner. So, the restaurant got a nice face lift. It has new chairs and decorations. Instead of a piano lady, they now have live bands. They play music in the Patio of the restaurant. This patio also includes a mini bar. It is a...
