During my last trip to Asheville, NC, I made it a point to check out at least of few favorite local eateries since I missed out on the experience before. I was delighted that my first experience would be The Market Place, headed by Chef /Owner William Dissen. The[...]
One of the areas that I was most excited to visit during our tour of the Orlando culinary scene was Orlando's Vimi district. The name ViMi comes from the two main streets, Virginia and Mills, that intersect there. Located in the northeast of downtown Orlando, the d[...]
While taking in NYC at night during our recent Hotel Elysee stay, we decided to pop in at Pop Burger for a quick bite. The place at 7:30pm on a Friday night was completely empty downstairs (street level). This is because the places that are really "happening" are t[...]
Ah, New Orleans. I still remember the excitement with which I visited and New Orleans didn't disappoint. In fact, it exceeded expectations. One of the things we enjoyed the most was the food. Oh the glorious food. I had a list of things to taste and hit the ground[...]
