MIAMI SPICE
August 1 – September 30
Miami-Spice

Miami Spice is here! It’s a great way to get introduced to restaurants you normally would find a bit pricey. Lunches run $23 and dinner $39 for 3 courses.  Be sure you reserve and mention Miami Spice menu and notice the list on their site is divided for lunch and dinner! Not all restaurants are doing both.
We were invited to a tasting at Quality Meats and it was off the charts! This restaurant would be my top pick if you are an carnivore!  Here’s what I thought about it!
Also check New Times and Miami Herald for their take on Miami Spice!
Another of my favs is Hakkasan not so much for their dim sum since they already do a super weekend dim sum lunch for about the same price but for dinner, it’s a steal!  Take a look at my last HOH WOK CLUB gathering at Hakkasan for Chinese New Year Yum Cha and everyone adored it, what a deal.

It’s a gathering at restaurants for folks who enjoy Asian culture and cuisine. I work with the chef and come up with a tasting sampler that reflects their cooking style and at a great value.

Lunch Hour Movie
premiers at Palm Beach Film Festival

Lunch Hour examines America’s national school lunch program which exposes children to unhealthy, but culturally acceptable foods at a young age.
Anyone who has children need to see this documentary, see the trailer, see the clips and get more information on how to get involved, click here. Join their Facebook page, twitter for latest updates.
This is such an important topic and I hope to get more involved this year. I’ve been invited to teach classes for parents and kids at Cooking with Kids, a school my friend Maria Cummins opened to educate kids and at the same time make cooking fun and healthy.
