Miami, Florida

Miami, Florida, has the second largest Cuban population of any city in the world, behind only Havana. It’s not surprising, then, that meals in Miami should have a Cuban accent. In fact, South Florida and Cuba share a common history: both lands were at one time claimed by Spain. Their close geographic proximity, the rush of Cuban immigrants into South Florida, and the wealth of foods indigenous to both places have eased the adaptation and evolution of Cuban cuisine in and around Miami. In South Beach, where clothing is optional (or often so minimal as to seem that way), the hip and happening are seeing and being seen, basking in both the Miami sunshine and the glow of their own fabulousness amidst trendy bars and spendy restaurants in a beautiful setting dominated by soft pastel Art Deco architecture -- much of the district is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Lemon Dijon Wings

Reviewed on Oct. 2, 2008 by Cookie
This one was okay, it did not have the lemony burst of flavor I am looking for. This one was also very easy and quick to prepare. Will do again, just not soon.

Excellent Shrimp Creole

Reviewed on Oct. 2, 2008 by Cookie
This recipe was good. I had to decrease the ingredients by half. Quick and easy to prepare, toasted garlic french roll compliments this recipe well. Served over white rice, will try pasta the next time around.

Spaghetti Sauce III

Reviewed on Sep. 29, 2008 by brooke
This recipe was really good. This was the first time ever that I decided to make my own sauce. I used 12 oz of tomato paste because I like my sauce thicker. Also I used stewed tomatoes but the only stewed tomatoes I had were seasoned with garlic and basil.. So this was really good and I plan on making it again.
