Hot Spot in Miami Beach

Written by Tracy Towle on May 17th, 2010 | Comments View Comments

The Beer & Burger Joint “B&B” is a hot spot in Miami Beach. Although the wait for a table can sometimes be over 45 minutes, it is well worth the wait!! Here’s a hint–if you are in a rush to eat, go to the back bar and you can order quickly..and even play a few games of pool (for free!). I LOVE the “Prudence”–portobello mushroom burger..delicious!!! Yes, even a place with the word “Burger” is a great spot for vegetarians! Enjoy food and pool at B&B!

Oh Yeah For Oliver’s

Written by Tracy Towle on April 29th, 2010 | Comments View Comments

Last night I ate at an excellent and delicious place in Miami Beach on West Avenue called Oliver’s Bistro. It was only my second time at Oliver’s and I was very pleased with the food and dining experience. I definitely recommend eating outside under one of the bright orange umbrellas. Although there were not any fans, the temperature was great and very comfortable. For an added bonus, the lighting, greenery and tiki torches made it a true tropical atmosphere. Fresh hot bread is brought to the table with a delicious special cream cheese for dipping the bread (I am not the biggest fan of cream cheese, but, loved the cream cheese dip at Oliver’s). For dinner, I had the soy glazed salmon on top of a toasted country bread with cucumbers & tomatoes with a nice salad (complete with carrots and beets). The portion size was good and the prices are fair. I recommend Oliver’s Bistro especially if you are in the mood for a quaint dinner on Miami Beach.

One of my post-triathlon race traditions is to eat at my favorite Miami Beach restaurant, The Cafe at Books and Books on Lincoln Road. I love the fresh and healthy food. As a vegetarian, it always has plenty of selections. Among my favorite dish is the Vegan Platter of grilled marinated organic tofu, black & white bean salad, salad and corn salad. I always recommend Books and Books to any visitors and residents of Miami Beach. I eat at The Café and Books and Books at least twice a week. Have a healthy meal and then don’t msis checking out the books at the Books and Books store.
