Hollywood Brewing Company – Hollywood, FL

There is a brewery right on the beach in Hollywood, Florida called Hollywood Brewing Company. What better way to enjoy beer than at the beach. They have a great painting on the wall that explains the beer making process. It is simple but gets the key points across. I sampled a few of their beers but they were a little too hoppy and bitter for my liking. But if you are a fan of German style beer then they will be perfect for you.  I went for one of their cocktails. The Victoria’s Lemonade sounded great. It was vodka, Sprite,…

Fire – Winter Haven, FL

I have written about Fire Restaurant before. I was back in town and I wanted to stop by again. To my surprise the entire restaurant had been remodeled and the menu had been slightly updated. What I remembered about the restaurant before was it was dark with rich wood beams and wood paneling on the wall. Now it has been brightened up with trendy gray paint, fresh decor on the walls, and cool updated light fixtures. It really was a transformation.       I was excited to try some of the new menu items. I started with the chicken…

House of Blues – Anaheim, CA

There are House of Blues in many major cities in the US. I recently went to one location in Anaheim, California not far from Disneyland. As soon as I walked in I noticed this beautiful decorated column. It was covered in different beads and it blew me away.       Since I was there for an event they had a few food stations set up around the restaurant. The food choices were different dishes off their main menu. They had this amazing jalapeno cheese cornbread. The cornbread itself was moist and the cheese added saltiness. The jalapenos (which were…

MIX – Anaheim, CA

Sometimes when I am traveling I do not get a chance to leave the hotel that I am staying at. In most cases the hotels have wonderful restaurants that I can try. MIX was one of those restaurants found inside the Hilton Anaheim in Anaheim, California.       Since it was just me having dinner they were able to seat me right away. I had a wonderful waitress, who was very attentive. She actually hung around and had a conversation with me about different things to see and do in Anaheim. To quench my thirst I ordered an Arnold…

Two Henry’s Brewing Company – Plant City, FL

So inside Keel & Curley Winery, which I had previously written about, is a brewery called Two Henry’s Brewing Company. They offer beer flight as well as cider flights. I went for a cider flight that allowed me to select five of their homemade ciders.       Elderberry – this was almost like a light fruit punch. It was sweet and full of flavor. Mango – I could smell the mango as soon as I put the glass up to my nose. There was a sweetness that was throughout. It was very tropical in nature. Pineapple – Since I…

Keel & Curley Winery – Plant City, FL

Florida has several wineries around the state. There is one not far off Interstate 4 as you are heading toward Tampa called Keel & Curley. I was excited to get to visit along with my sister. They are much larger on the inside than what I was expecting. They have a full restaurant along with two large bars. We grabbed seats at the bar for more personal attention.       We both decided to do a wine tasting. This allowed us to try four of their homemade wines. We both decided to make two of our four choices different…
