To Do List: Weekend Food Fun
Our stay-cation last weekend was extremely slow, but it looks like we'll be able to make up for it this week with several fun foodie activities.
On Friday starting at 6 p.m., The Oceanaire Seafood Room will present a five-course dinner featuring Robert Mondavi Wines. The cost is $65 per person, plus tax and gratuity. Just to get your juices flowing, we'll tell you that the first course will be “A Study in Oysters” paired with Mondavi Fume Blanc, Napa Valley ’06. Call 305-372-8862 (TUNA) for reservations.
On Saturday, the Historical Museum of South Florida will host its annual fundraiser: the Bark Brunch at the Oasis at the Raleigh Hotel (pictured), which will take place from 10 a.m. until noon. While you fill up on brunch and mimosas, your furry friend can enter a canine competition or get a doggie massage. Tickets for non-HMSF members are $55.
On Sunday, Sushi Samba Dromo is celebrating Brazilian Independence Day with a specialty cocktail, one-night-only dishes and a show featuring famed performer Gil Santos, dancers and Brazilian drummers. The live shows are scheduled for 8-9:30 p.m. Special menu items include a bandeira cocktail ($12), a mix of pinot grigio and cachaca; the lobster and palmito salad ($18), served with a coco-mango emulsion and cashew powder; and the roasted poussion com batata ($25), served with broccolini and port sauce.
