Who I should be spending Thanksgiving with

I’m back! I know, I know, I’ve been MAJORLY slacking on the blog updating.  What can I say? It’s been an eventful month or two. Between launching a couple of restaurants, a few fundraisers, weddings galore, college football, and all the other craziness that is ‘season’ in Miami, I haven’t had much time to update this blog. Things have been just going way too fast to actually sit down and chronicle them.

But, my (early) New Year’s resolution is to update this sucker at least twice a week. And to lose 10 lbs. Hopefully I can stick to at least one of those goals.

Anywho, as some of you may know, I work in the hospitality industry and our Superbowl is this week – that’s right, Thanksgiving. Originally, I had plans to go to Orlando to see some friends and family, dine with Mickey Mouse, and then head to God’s Country (aka Gainesville, FL) to watch my Gators play against that dirty, dirty ‘girl’s’ school. But, due to a crazy roommate unforeseen circumstances, I have to now stay in town and move out of my apartment. You’re jealous, I know.

So where’s a girl to eat? If you’re not spending Thanksgiving at a relative’s house, or just don’t feel like cooking, there are plenty of delicious options to choose from around Miami. Check out my top 5 picks after the jump.

$10 Pasta on Thursdays

It’s Thursday and that means a big portion of Perricone’s pasta menu is only $10 all evening long. Some of the options include homemade potato gnocchi, whole wheat pasta with salmon, penne pomodoro, and several others. I know this deal has been around for sometime, but I am currently craving carbs and it sounds like a wonderful dinner plan. Any takers? :)

Perricone’s Marketplace is located 15 SE 10th Street (right across form Mary Brickell Village). For more information call 305.374.9449.
