Di Gusto

When Federico from Fera Tours (www.feratours.com) invited me to dinner at a recently opened Italian Restaurant in Naples, I knew I was in for some good food, after all that is what Federico’s business is all about creating unforgettable experiences for tourists in Italy, where they do not only experience the beautiful sights of Italy

Sun N Fun Sports Rentals

During the last day of Spring Break, after having done some many fun things with the kids in the area, we finished with a super fun activity, a two hour ride on the Scoot Coupe from Sun N Fun Sports Rentals in Marco Island. I had initially interviewed Jake from Sun N Fun Sports Rentals

Rosedale Brick Oven

This past Sunday, the family and I went to lunch at Rosedale Brick Oven. Rosedale had graciously helped us feed the Isle of Capri community during our efforts to help our community right after Hurricane Ian. I had personally delivered the food to the Isles of Capri and in the back of my brain was

Rumba Cuban Café

After months of wanting to try Rumba Cuban Cafe, I was finally able to try today and I realized how much I have been missing! Delicious Cuban food, with a home made flavor, fantastic service and an overall amazing experience. My friend and I were hungry so we started with the ham croquetas! My friend

Moke Naples

The family and I were invited to try out the Moke, the newest way of getting around Naples! But what exactly is a Moke? The Moke began as a military invention for the British army in the late 1950s. It was created by the British Motor Company and Alec Issigonis, the father of the original

Bean to Cup Coffee Lounge

If you love coffee as much as I do, you are certainly always looking for different types of coffees and coffee shops to try. I always pop in different coffee shops and try coffees with beans from different countries and prepared differently. The ambiance is always extremely important to me as well… I like to

Mykonos Kuzina

For about a month now, I have told myself I had to visit Mykonos Kuzina in North Naples. I love Greek food and often had Greek food when I lived in Boston, but ever since moving down to Naples over 7 years ago, I can’t remember a time I had it down here! Life happens

Komoon Thai, Sushi and Ceviche

Last night I had the honor to bring a guest to the awesome and stylish Komoon Thai Sushi & Ceviche Restaurant on Immokalee Road. Komoon, which has 3 locations, (Pine Ridge, Immokalee Road and Bonita Beach Road) has been in business for close to 10 years, serving a mix of Asian/Peruvian dishes.

Osteria Capri

My mother-in-law came to town to be with us for Halloween and this gave my wife and I, an opportunity to go out on a date for dinner. We reached into our list of restaurants that we have not been but want to try, and Osteria Capri, in the Isles of Capri, right before Marco

Island Vybz Jamaican Cuisine

I have been meaning to try Island Vybz since it opened close to my home in North Naples, but timing has just not allowed for it. Often, my lunches are at home and quick to get right back to work. But today was going to be the day! I had been home for a few

The Bug Terminators

Alright guys, whether at home or at your work place, you may have noticed some little pests that should not be there… and no, I am not talking about your kids, husband or co-workers! Living in a tropical place like Florida, dealing with unwanted bugs and rodents is part of life. Luckly, we

Legends B&G Sports Bar

It’s Spring Break, my daughter is away from her school computer and looking for fun things to do. It is also St. Patrick’s Day, a day that many (mainly those without young kids) go out to drinks. I decided to take a long lunch from work and take the family out and achieve both: entertain

La Trattoria

I remember visiting Italy and as I walked from one of the tourist attraction to another, I remember wishing I could sit down and try every restaurant I saw on the way, they all looked so delicious… and when I finally got to try one, I was absolutely right, the food was out of this
