Rincon Antiqueno Restaurant

Miami, FL Mexican Restaurants 09/10/06: 'Nice food,pretty established business'

I tried this restaurant with my ex-colobian girlfriend,and Ifound it authentic and nice tasting.The choices of soups(galician,spanish and other types of hearty soups ) makes a place worth visiting.Antioquia is a town in Colombia,famous for hearty meals.The decoration(like the wheel ect) tries to reflect images of Colombia.Nice not highly pretentius place.

PROS: Nice authentic food,experienced biz
CONS: sort of tight parking,but separate


3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Parrot Jungle Island

Great for people that love animals,mainly birds.The price has increased somehow but still a series of fun shows to watch.I still have the recordings of some of the shows that I went since I was child.The feats are famous and well worth the price.

PROS: Clever stunts by birds
CONS: far away location

Honeygrill

Miami, FL Chinese Restaurants 09/08/06: 'Visited this location for its buffet'

Liked this buffet but it is little expensive compared to the NEW chinese buffets by the University,also the food does not taste as fresh.The service is great ,and has a pretty CANTONESE atmosphere.The employees are very polite,and would recommend it from that pespective.
There is no separate parking ,since it is in the middle of a shopping center.

PROS: Nice buffet
CONS: parking could be tight when shopping center is full

Miami Bakery

Miami, FL Bakers & Bakeries 09/08/06: 'Not really a wide selection of products'

I have visited this location a few times,and did not enjoy the pastry,bread or products for sale.The place did not look either clean/organized or else.The locale had old appliances that seemed a little broken down.The selection of products did not appear to be Spanish or Cuban but Central American or Nicaraguan.Certain people like this type of place.Most everybody does not speak English and Bad Spanish

PROS: Nice location
CONS: Not great pastry/products

Karla Bakery

Miami, FL Bakers & Bakeries 09/08/06: 'air conditioned clean place,nice pastry'

Good tasting pastry,like heavenly custard(not really authentic tasting),fruit cakes and bread.The sweets tend to be a little expensive but the decoration and organization of the place looks OK.The touch of decoration feels European in a way,but the politeness of the employees leaves something to be desired.Some employees can speak Englishbut most cannot.Recommend it to certain people that enjoy this type of pastry/bakery.

PROS: Nice tasting pastry,bread
CONS: some employees not polite do not speak English

Opa Lock Hialeah Flea Market

Hialeah, FL Flea Markets & Swap Meets 09/08/06: 'Somehow organized'

I visited this Flea Markey once but did not find what I was looking for.This Flea Market compared to the Greyhound one (which has Central American folk) is even worse in terms of selection and prices.It reminds me of certain REAL LOW CLASS merchandise flea markets elsewhere in the country.I would only recommend it to people to visit once or twice.

PROS: Oraganized compared to other Flea Markets
CONS: sort of expensive,questionable merchandise
