Restaurant & Bar Reviews

Juvia is actually located in the funkiest car-park I have ever seen. It is located at the end of Lincoln Road that is furthest away from the beach.It features
Inside and outside dining.

Hard to describe the atmosphere. It is cool and funky but really feels like an upmarket beach bar/restaurant. Now do not take this the wrong way the place is fantastic and you could wear your tux or shorts( actually don’t know if there is a dress code) and be totally comfortable here.
So what about the food. It was fantastic. Everything we had was excellent and the prices while not cheap were not outrageous.

Cerviche

Salmon rolls.

Tuna

Lamb chops

Short ribs.
Once again make this one of your first stops on your next Miami visit.

I suggest before you leave grab a mojito and savor the night time beach view.

Anchor and Hope is located in an old mechanics shop in San Fran.(very like most of the restaurants in Palermo Soho Buenos Aires)

The space is actually very cool.

The menu was supposed to be an Oyster and Stout happy hour as enjoyed by the good ole Irish folks at home on the old sod. With these prices however I do not think that many of them would be too happy.

Sat at the bar which gave me a good view of the oysters being prepared.

Food was good.

Fish and chips anyone.

Salmon.

No Chimay but this stuff was very good.

Hanway Place houses the original Hakkasan in London.
Situated just off Oxford Street do not let the slightly dodgey surroundings put you off . When you enter this underground restaurant you will be whisked away to a totally different world.

The restaurtant serves modern Chinese
Cuisine and has a Michelin star. I have no idea what the following photos are but can testify that it was all delicious.

The atmosphere is very cool even though it is supposed to be an old style setting.

This place is not cheap but definitely worth a visit.

The Pot Belly is located between Banbridge and Gilford in Northern Ireland

A pot belly is not a fat person from Charlestown but a particular type of stove.one is located in the restaurant and it keeps the place very toasty.

The food was simple but really good.

This steak with the bushmills sauce was great and the cows were happy so that is great.

There was a gluten free menu and the salmon was very good.

This Montreal institution is located about a 10 dollar cab ride from downtown on Rue Saint Denis

The restaurant is very traditional no Wi-fi here. Just what you would expect from a place that has been around for a long time.

No frills but this pate was great.

So was the octopus.

Of course the steak frites was very good.Not my usual type of place but the champagne prices were the best that I found in Montreal. In fact some of their bottles were as cheap as the liquor stores.To make a reservation

Brasserie Jo is located in the Colonnade Hotel on the edge of Back Bay in Boston.

Scallops were gluton free and very tasty.

Steak frites was very good. No complaints at all.

I do not indulge in dessert but I am assured that it was yummy.To make a reservation
