Re: Kitchen Nightmares: Zeke's

Didn't the same people that own Frankie and Johnny's end up owning Zeke's after his death? I haven't been particularly thrilled there lately either.

Rue 127

Anybody been to this new spot on Carrollton? I assume it is the place that started with an "A" across from Venezia's....The little buzz I've heard has been good.

Sunday on the beach in Tulum

I had a really good time this past Sunday at the beach down here. My oldest aquaintance is one of the local Mayan Healers I met during 9/11. Her name is Lili. She's pretty far out, but one of the kindest people I know. Sunday afternoons she has a Jam session at her place. This time we cooked chiccha...
