SMASHBURGER on Biscayne and 146th

Went to a new burger chain called SMASH Burger last week on Biscayne and 146^th.

It was good but not as good as Shake Shack.

Bun was soft and juicy like Shake Shack on my burger but not so on a different burger ordered by someone else. The Smashfries with rosemary, olive loil and garlic wewre horrible but the sweet potato fries were good.

I would go back.

Under $10 per person

 

BLU Sushi at Gulfstream

Went to BLU Sushi at Gulfstream twice in past week. Right next to BRIO.

I DO NOT eat sushi so I can only report that both people I was with loved it and I liked the non-sushi salad and Asian prime filet of beef.

The restaurant is trendy with both outside and inside bars and tables and they had a live DJ on Saturday nite. A young crowd unlike BRIO next door.

La Gloutonnerie on Wasington just north of Joe's

Went to La Gloutonnerie earlier this month. It is just north of Joe’s on Washington where Au Pieds du Couchon was for one year.

They have a beautiful outdoor seating area and the place was full.

All of the portion sizes, including the drinks, were large and everyone had a great meal.

I will definitely go back.

Was several weeks ago that I went so I do not remember how much it cost or what everyone had but I know everyone liked it.
