Ok. The next time I come to St. Augustine, put this on the list. Your narrative and photos makes it feel like I was there, but my tastebuds need to catch up!

Hi Jenn,
I enjoyed reading about you and Roberto’s trip to Casa Maya. Smart that you get one meal and split, then split dessert. When in St. Augustine I will go there!

OK Mom! Sounds like a plan!

Thanks Meg. Yeah, we try to split stuff as often as possible - I find that we get a more correct portion size that way and miraculously still have room for dessert!
Do you have any recommendations for St. Augustine dining?

Well..this is the first time I’ve ever heard of avocado used in a sweet dish! And I call myself a foodie.. beh!!

Hi Jenn, Yes I also love the quaintness of this unasuming restaurant. I stopped in one day for some hot cocoa - BOY! WAS IT GOOD! Not your average cup as it is made with hot milk and then special chocolate crunched up and blended in a blender. Just right for wandering around St Augustine on one of those blustery cold days. Also for some really good greek food, try Athena’s.

I know Maria! I had never heard of it either! It is quite good!

What a great idea Amber - I will have to drop by and try one - before it gets too hot!
I love Athena’s! They have a great breakfast too!

okay - i’ll definitely try it!

I totally understand trying to convince others that Mexican is really good; aside from taco bell when i need my salt, fat & fake satiated fix…..

I’m a Calfornia native and trying to find fresh California inspired Mexican food out here is ‘nil….trying to find GOOD Mexican food is almost ‘nil!

I will try Casa Maya as well as continue to cook Calif-Mex @ home when inspired….

Thanks & Yum,
