Lil Greenhouse Grill in Overtown, Miami

Black owned eatery in the heart of Miami’s Overtown neighborhood

Nakeeta Gates, the founder of Lil Greenhouse Grill. This black owned eatery in the heart of Miami’s Overtown neighborhood, is sure to please.

My first visit was for a friend’s birthday party. The Miami based eatery had a very inviting atmosphere that made me feel like I was at one of my cool aunt’s crib.

As a wine drinker, I ordered a few glasses of Chardonnay & took a big slice of rum cake that was made for my friend. Sipping and dancing the evening away, I forgot to order something from their kitchen in time before it closed. Unbothered by the whole situation, I drove home thinking I had to come back because most of my colleagues were talking about visiting when in search of some great soul food.

Don’t cry for me just yet! While coasting home down Biscayne in the rain drizzle that is constant during hurricane season, I got a text.

The owner and Chef Karim Bryant saved me a personal plate of her smoked BBQ ribs. Now, I must tell all of my vegan friends, I ate those ribs like my life depended on it. If anything, I probably would’ve made a simple sandwich that night and this plate with all the “fixins” made my evening. Again, I do have to say that eating out is a luxury and any time that you have an over the top experience, you should make note of it.

I will be back soon to visit the Lil Greenhouse Grill and when you are in the area; stop by and enjoy yourself. I give this a stamp of approval from The Lifestyle Connoisseur team.

Get your fix for Asian-Style eats at KYU Miami

You are going to love Korean Fried Chicken at KYU Miami

When I thought I had tried all the fried chicken in the world, here comes a new restaurant to add to my favorite spots in and around South Florida. KYU Miami is a great place to get your fix for Asian-Style eats.

KYU Miami is an Asian-inspired restaurant in Wynwood, a buzzing neighborhood in Miami. The ambiance is similar to walking into West Elm or the latest furniture picks for the Architectural Digest magazine. The warm welcomes from the host makes you forget you’re sitting an open concept style restaurant where conversations may overlap if you’re too loud. Therefore, don’t come here to break up with your significant other or serenade a new crush.

When I visit a restaurant, I am used to servers and server assistants hovering over me and my guest(s) if I let them know it is my first-time dining in their establishment. The server that night made me, and my guest feel good about explaining what was on the menu. We both can read; however, it is a pleasure to have each main ingredient explained to you in simple terms. In addition to that, in my opinion, the level of service from your waiter is crucial to the success of any dining experience. If your restaurant needs any server experience tips, please email us.
