Miami Beach in the Winter 2022
This weekend we drove up to Miami Beach. It takes about an hour to drive up from Kendall. There was a lot of traffic at the entrance of Miami Beach because of Art Basil. It was the last day of that event. The Argentina Soccer team was also playing. So, there was a lot of Argentinians roaming the beach wearing the shirt of their favorite players. They all were gathering in the Manolo Restaurant. The windows were closed because they were having a private party for soccer fans only. We got parking near the restaurant. From there, we walked towards...
Artsy Sister Visits the Miami Van Gogh Exhibit
This Saturday I visited the Van Gogh Exhibit. The Exhibit took place in the Gusman Center in 174 E Flagler St. Getting to the venue was an interesting experience, in it of itself. The street in front of the Gusman Center was being repaired. We had to park a block away in order to make it to the exhibit. In Miami, they are always destroying and reconstructing streets. Even with a GPS, you still get lost because Google doesn’t know which streets are being blocked. Enough about the driving situation. The interior of the building had a lot of beautiful...
I Ate Today Sushi from Bonsai Thai and Sushi
Today, I visited the Bonsai Thai and Sushi restaurant of Miami, in 8th Street. I go there every so often. I do not remember if I wrote about the place or not. I took some photos of the scenery and also the sushi. The ambience, the food and the service were perfect. For drinks, I had a soda, my brother had a Moscato and mother had beer. You can see the beer brand on the photo I took. The waitress suggested a shrimp dish that was just delicious. I think the dish was called Rockin’ Shrimp. The sauce it had...
Faena Theater Allura Show Review
Last night, I went with my family to see the Allura show in the Faena Theater. It has become a bit of a family tradition to go see whatever new show Faena is offering. The artistry of these shows makes it an enjoyable experience for both men and women. The last one we saw was called Tryst. The new current one is called Allura. We were going to see it last week, but the date was pushed forward to November the 5th. My experience of the show and the food is segmented in two parts. I already reviewed the food....
Faena Theater Allura Food Review
On the 5th of November, I went with my family to the Faena Theater. We saw the show Allura. We also came there to overstuff our face. I cannot say much about the drinks because I only had a soda. I photograph the food menu. You can see the food option and how much everything costed. We ordered appetizers, main course and dessert. Even with mother and brother ordered drinks, everything ended up costing less than 300 bucks. This is good considering that inflation is making everything so expensive. Anyhow, back to the food. For appetizers, I ordered some 12...
