It was a fabulous random find. Just the day before I was gushing to the Misses how much I looooovveedd Romero Britto, when we stumbled upon his gallery!! I begged PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can we goooo!! Like a 5 year old seeing a toy store. I was not disappointed. Well actually I was, I think all I could afford was a keychain -lol- I told the ladies that if I ever get a house, married, or something big *wink* they know what to get me. 😀
Finally I could spend a WHOLE day at the beach. No rush. No Fuss. No rain 🙂
We thought we were going to get rained out but the beach gods were kind to us. We were happily surprised that our stay at the Delano included beach chairs. I admit before this weekend I would not fork up $20 for a beach chair when my beach towel does just fine. But dearest south beach you have spoiled me! Your comfy terrycloth + elevation + reduction of sand everywhere has made me come into the light. Ohh and lets not forget the cute beach boy who sets everything up. 😉
The mojitos were basically juice but seeing a school of fish + sting ray in the clear waters, finally getting a tan, and celebrating my fave ladies 27th birthday was *priceless*.
South beach I *heart* you.
It was just to white, so clean, so chic, so minimalist, so ME!
Hello Delano.
The Misses requested staying a night on the beach for her birthday. Of course I happily obliged.

4 Stars and 4 Monies
We were informed of complimentary Mojitos at 900 Novecento restaurant.

Then Mirella told us about Power Hour at Morton’s

(well she didn’t lie. They just happened to be closed the ONE specific day)
l.o.l
So we resorted to to walking around Brickell for the next best thing… and we found Piola. A cute little Pizzeria. They incited us with free cocktail with an entree so of course we gladly accepted. 🙂 The pizza did not disappoint, totally delicious! Made me realize I have a love for sun dried tomatoes and anything cheezy. 🙂 The strawberry caipriroska cocktail was way to strong for my taste, I could have done without.
I give this place 3.5 Stars and 2 Monies 😉 hehe
My first stop right off the plane was Shake Shack. I know, I know they have one here in the city but those burgers are so delish ( and they understand when I request VERY WELL DONE). I had been dying to go to the Miami location since it opened and it doesn’t hurt that Mrs. Boots is obsessed.
#confession: We went twice this weekend. 😉
I ordered: Plain hamburger with Lettuce and Onions with a side of fries.. Nom Nom Nom.
