Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Celebrate with tacos and margaritas!

Here's a round up of my fave taco places:

5 Napkin Burger (Miami), who knew a burger place could do fish tacos so well?

Linden Square's The Cottage in Wellesley, MA does a mean mahi taco

Border Cafe in Harvard Square, Boston

Dos Cominos in NYC

Atwoods Tavern, Boston, does a good fish taco!

And if you, like me, enjoy taco night at home, try this tilapia recipe for creating delish fish tacos!!

Wellesley: Linden Square, The Cottage

I'm always up for brunch. Seriously. (Call me.)

So I was really excited when I was invited to join a media brunch at The Cottage at Linden Square.

The trek up to Wellesley was worth it, to say the least.

And it was nice to meet up with several other bloggers (Honest Mom, Boston Fashionista, Suzette from Wellesley Media and of course Beerhogger was also in attendance). We all met Caitlin who organized the brunch.

There was a bevy of magnificent dishes from fried calamari, "Cottage" nachos, ahi tuna nachos, fish tacos, crab melts, stuffed avacadoes to desserts of chocolate cakes, cheese cakes and fruity sorbets.

Afterward, with arms laden with The Cottage's famous granola (a must-try, the crunchy medley is madly addictive!), gift certificates to Sara Campbell, Belle Sante salon and side walk sales taking place all over Linden Square I knew where I was headed to, next!

Beerhogger's review of what we coined "breakfast" beers, is coming soon!

Miami: 5 Napkin Burger

Location:

455 Lincoln Road

Miami , FL 33139

Have you been to a 5 Napkin Burger? New York has the most number of them, and there's one in Boston's Back Bay, which I haven't visited, yet.

The one in Miami is stellar especially when you're looking for fish tacos in Miami and you'd think it would be easy to find. Not on Lincoln Road, it's not. So who woulda thought a joint with 'burger' in the title would serve fish tacos?

Well they do, and they do it well!

The only thing they don't do as well is their brownie sundae. Athough exceptional in size, the brownie bits were hard and not as moist and gooey as should be in a sundae.

Overall, a good meal. And next time I'll go for a burger!

April: Art To Inspiration

This month's Art to Inspiration comes from an artist named Pakayla Rae Biehn whose work is entitled:

2 Year, 264 Days and This Morning.

Is it bad to have immediately thought of food when I saw this image? Perhaps I was hungry or perhaps it's because I ate too much Mexican food in San Diego where I just returned from, for this is what it brought to mind. In texture, in colour and with the use of negative and positive space.
