"Books and Books" (Foodie Friday)

During a really swell trip to Miami to visit my bestest friend Mandy she brought me to a stellar Book Store/Cafe called "Books and Books". 

 "Books & Books is currently located in an exquisite 1927 building listed in the Coral Gables Register of Historic Places. The 9,000 square foot, Mediterranean-style building has original tile floors, a fireplace, beamed ceilings, floor-to-ceiling dark-wood bookshelves, and open-air courtyard and a full-service cafe."

Each of us had an Avocado, Lemon Pesto Cheddar sandwich, [i had them panini press mine], which were QUITE delightful.

Mandy enjoyed a cappuccino which she 'instagrammed' with great focus. ;)

But oddly enough, my highlight of my experience at Books and Books, was twittering back and forth with whoever is their [very quick to respond] social media person. :) 

 I totally recommend visiting them if you are EVER in the vicinity of a one.

Eat On!

[Foodie Friday] Pasion del Cielo!

You know when you just walk into a cafe and it feels "homey". That's how it felt when my friend Mandy and I walked into Pasion del Cielo in Coral Gables. It's cute and quint, and had enough traffic where they seemed to be doing pretty well, without seemed over crowded, which made it a perfect place to relax and recharge for an afternoon.

The atmosphere was just lovely, with the sunshine grazing all the walls in the cafe, proving a yellow tinge all around us while we read and i drew doodles. The staff seemed nice, and the customers were very friendly. There seemed to be a great mix of regulars and newbies, like ourselves. I can't wait to go back next time I'm in Miami!
