Date Night: Berries in the Grove

berries.jpg
Berries in the Grove, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love your stellar smoothies, the dog-friendly outdoor seating, the live jazz on weekends, and your daily half-price happy hour. I especially love you because I spotted Colin Farrell nursing a hangover on your patio one day.

And now, I can share the spot I love with the one I love and pay a little less: you're offering diners a free bottle of wine with the purchase of two entrees. Thanks, Berries. You sure know how to treat a girl.

Date Night: Dinner & A Movie At Costa Grill

costa grill.jpg The traditional dinner and a movie ritual is getting a makeover at Acqualina Resort & Spa in Sunny Isles during Cinema Paradiso at Costa Grill. On Friday nights, the resort’s oceanfront restaurant will serve an a la carte “appetizer & snacks” menu during film screenings by the pool. This Friday’s movie is Sunset Boulevard, but the featured flick will change weekly (think summer blockbusters and classics with a little comedy and camp thrown in for good measure), and the menu provides enough variety for those wishing to make the event a regular indulgence. Signature cocktails are served by the pitcher (a strawberry caipirinha or raspberry mojito pitcher is $59, tropical punch or bloody mary pitchers are $49) and the menu consists of gourmet takes on movie fare, with offerings like a South Florida Crab Cake, Chicken Satay Skewers, and a Beef and Black Bean Corn Nacho. The best part? We’re sure no rowdy teenagers will be sitting behind you spoiling your fun.
