Sweet Creativity!
It is so nice to run across a nice and unique place… While driving by everytime I saw the sign I got curious but didn’t have a chance to stop until yesterday. Luckily it was lunch time and I decided to “explore” the new place on SW 136th Ave in Davie. Just steps a few steps actually but very close from IKEA, South of I-595.
It’s a place hard to describe, it is one of those you need to “experience”. It’s a Cafe where you can find some light goodies such as salads, wraps, sandwiches, pizzas and where you can create your own smoothie, chocolate and ice cream. You can also design your own box of chocolate! When I say design I mean it!!! You can craft and decorate your own box, perfect for that one-of a-kind gift.
A warm atmosphere where anytime you turn your head you find something you didn’t see before. That’s the kind of place I love…
Patti told me that tomorrow Saturday Feb. 21st at 7:00 PM there will be a saxophonist and that soon they should be able to offer light spirits.
Kuddos to Patti and Rick Cortez for creating such a great place so close to home.
