Review Digest: Fuel Up The Gas Tank And The Belly
• No surprise here: Sra Martinez is a hit. There are a few critiques here and there, but overall the food is great. [Miami Herald]
• The steaks are 16 ounces at The Grill on the Alley. A full pound! Definitely a carnivore's place. [Miami New Times]
• Two new chain Mexican restaurants open in Palm Beach County. One is the second location of a Boston restaurant, the other is a branch of a chain in Mexico. The latter restaurant, Las Gaoneras, wins this taste taste in a landslide. [Broward-Palm Beach New Times]
• Here's a good guide to that Miami phenomenon, the restaurant inside the gas station. There are more of them than you might think. [Miami Herald]
• Creolina's Dixie Takeout seems well adjusted to its new location in a Davie shopping plaza; the New Orleans fare is just as good as it was when the restaurant was in downtown Fort Lauderdale. [Miami Herald]
• A tiki hut in downtown Miami's Flagler Food Court where you can cook your chicken skewers on "lava rocks." Seems a bit gimmicky. A little gimmick is all right, however, when the rum runners are two-for-one all day. [Miami Herald]
