Ignite Bar & Lounge

I have a friend who is a Yelper and loves trying new restaurants.  She sent me a text with three restaurants to choose from, and I chose Ignite Lounge and Bar at the Ritz-Carlton.  I always eat at CORE whenever we are at the Ritz, but I wanted to try this...

Grilled Fish Tacos and Crunchy Corn Salsa

While visiting California a couple of weeks ago, I was craving fish tacos.  I don't know where the craving came from, but I just had to have one.  Ironically, the restaurant where we ate had what appeared to be a delicious grilled fish taco on the menu, but...

Quarter View Restaurant

My family and I just got back from New Orleans and Mississippi.  I thank God for family and friends who make life so sweet even in the midst of hardship.  I especially enjoyed this trip because of the good food and the good times.  I was rather nervous...

Commerce Kitchen

I love lunch dates, and this lunch date was special because I spent it with a sweet lady from the Mississippi Delta. She grew up about 45 miles from where I was born and raised.  She graduated from Alabama A & M University and went on to medical school....

The Salty Pelican at Fernandina Beach

After walking around downtown Fernandina Beach, we walked over to The Salty Pelican, which is another local favorite. Everything in downtown Fernandina Beach is within walking distance, so we parked at the marina and walked around to visit the local shops before...

Lo-Lo’s Chicken and Waffles

My husband and I took a fun road trip to Scottsdale to eat at Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles.  We met about 20 friends at the restaurant and just enjoyed each other's company.   I never pass up an opportunity to eat good food and hang out with a great...

Downtown Kitchen

October 1st was our anniversary, so we decided to have dinner at the Downtown Kitchen.  This was my first time eating at this restaurant, and I loved it!  My husband's friend also has an October 1st wedding anniversary, so we all went out to eat together,...

San Diego
