What's eating you?

I love living in Brickell but I must admit, the lack of casual dining options is a problem. I dream of the day when a Panera Bread, Chipotle or even a Dunkin Donuts open their doors.

I know I can’t be alone on this one. Yes, it’s wonderful to have so many fine dining restaurants right outside my door but sometimes I don’t want to spend $75 to go to dinner with my boyfriend. Especially in this economy!

One of my favorite restaurants, The Beer and Burger Joint recently announced that they will be opening their second location right in Mary Brickell Village. This is great news for those of us looking for a casual dining option that won’t break the bank. If you haven’t been, the original Beer and Burger Joint is located in South Beach on Bay Road and 18th Street. B&B is set to open this summer, just in time for football season. Finally, Brickell will have a decent sports bar for Dolphins season!!

What is everyone up to this weekend? Make sure you get outdoors, the weather is supposed to be gorgeous!
