MIAMI EATS LIST
& a snippet about our recent trip WOES
A big part of what I always intended on sharing here on That’s Heatheresting…, are my EATS lists for cities/destinations that I travel to.
As I’ve mentioned before, I have a long list…of lists, lol— for cities all over the world. I have been observing, taking notes and creating them for a very long time.
Earlier this year, I shared my exclusive Mexico City list, and although I have an extensive Hawaii Guide article that’s been on my original blog since I first moved away from the islands… I’m also currently working on an update-of-sort— additional list for O’ahu specifically (I was just on island, last month).
Howeverrrrr, we just got home a few days ago from Miami, Florida. The trip was a wash and we ended up actually coming home early.
Therefore, I only got to experience VERY FEW places on my Miami list. :(
As you’ll see in my Miami vlog on YouTube, our trip was unfortunately not very successful/nor a positive experience.
I’m not sure when I’ll be ready to give another Miami trip a chance; so, I’m just going to publish the EATS list, now.
