Tallahassee Restaurant Review: Eternal Grounds Coffee Shop
Posted On 01/25/2012 17:38:05 by Tallahassee_Restaurants
     A Soul Nuturing Cup at Eternal Grounds Coffee Shop by Pedro Sempertegui  The coffee bean helps fuel our world with its magical powers.  One cup can give us the energy to take on the day while one pitcher can give us the energy to power through the night.  Some load it up with milk and sugar but I like keeping it dark.  For one thing, itâ€...

If I offered you $25,000 to train your team, would you take it?
Posted On 12/08/2011 15:14:31 by Margo
Earlier in the year, I participated at the City of St. Mark's monthly Commission meeting, where I presented on Florida economic incentives (i.e. tax breaks in the form of credits, refunds and training grants).  It was an amazing experience.  My goal was to inform smaller communities about the availability of economic incentives and briefly describe some of their benefits.

My BIG questions: If I offered you a check for $25,000 for training your employees, would you... Read More

  A Modern Mexican Restaurant at Morelia's by Pedro Sempertegui
& Lindsay White     If I were to compile a list of my favorite foods and rank them according to how much I absolutely cannot live without them, Latin American foods would be very well represented towards the top.  I consider it a blessing that my mother was such a great chef.  I grew up eating a lot of traditional...

Posted On 10/20/2011 09:45:36 by Margo
When it comes to training, some employers are concerned that they may incur the cost of training an employee and that employee may leave. This is a common dilemma for a business that is considering skilled training for its team. It is a fact that some employees will leave after being trained, but it is still worth the effort on your part to train your team.   There are a number of advantages for a company that trains its team.

Tallahassee Restaurant Review: Bagelheads
Posted On 10/10/2011 09:52:10 by Tallahassee_Restaurants
  Feed Your Head at Bagelheads
by: Pedro Sempertegui
& Lindsay White     Bagels are a very historic food.  Some people believe that they were created in the shape of a stirrup to commemorate the victory of Poland's King Jan III Sobieski over the Ottoman Turks in the Battle of Vienna in 1683.  But they were invented much earlier than that.  In Krakow, Poland, they were made...

Tallahassee Restaurant Review: Island Vybz

  Feeling the Island Vybz
by: Pedro Sempertegui
& Lindsay White   I'm always up to try new and exotic foods, but it's always hard to find a good ethnic restaurant.  There are a lot of places that tote authenticity in their names but their food ends up lacking the flavor and integrity of the real thing.  Take Olive Garden for example, it puts on that it's an Italian restaurant and says t...

Tallahassee Restaurant Review: Shula's 347

  Let There Be Steak!
by: Pedro Sempertegui
& Lindsay White   Every day I've passed by Hotel Duval with only a faint idea about the caliber of food that's offered in their first floor restaurant.  Shula's 347 brandishes the title "Grill" but many seem to see it as more of a "Steakhouse" due to the great care they take in selecting their cuts of meat.   The "Shula Cut" is the brand name o...

A New Take on the Boring Sandwich
by: Pedro Sempertegui

Taking a delicious journey
South of the Border
by: Pedro Sempertegui
& Lindsay White   Los Amigos opened a new restaurant location on Apalachee Parkway, a little east of Capital Circle.  I took my lovely girlfriend Lindsay out to see what this new location had to offer.  The drive from my house wasn't bad at all, and considering the magical qualities of good Mexican food, I couldn't complain.  ...

Food Critic Review: Tally's Grille
Posted On 09/09/2010 15:30:11 by Tally_Food_Critic
I walked into Tally's Grille in Market Square and immediately felt like I was in a classic Mom & Pop country diner like my uncle used to take me to as a kid.    They only serve Breakfast and Lunch - Monday thru Friday with Breakfast ONLY on Saturdays. Closed Sundays.   You order at the counter and you are greeted by Dixie, one of the owners, and she takes your order. Very friendly and doesn't rush you.  Turns out her son and business partner, Chris, is working... Read More



Why Girlfriends are Hypocrites
Posted On 09/08/2010 08:58:30 by GrouchyTallahassee
Guys, so you are at a singles bar and the woman you are talking to just LOVES the cologne you are wearing.    So you start dating and the first gift she buys you is a different brand of cologne. Why? Because she realizes the cologne you WERE wearing was probably given to you by an ex-girlfriend.   This is called "Marking Her Territory"... yes, just like a dog pissing on the tree. Only this time, you are the tree.   Here is where the hypocrisy comes in:   The cologne... Read More
