June 13th, 2007 – Biltmore, Coral Gables!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Jun.13, 2007, under Florida History!, Florida Restaurants, What\'s New?
We headed out to the grand and historic Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, just blocks from where my mother was born and raised. Sandra was there for a tourism board meeting. We had a number of meals in one of their restaurants, 1200 Courtyard Grill.
The fellow on the left is a chef there and the fellow on the right was one of the waiters.
Rob Labby drove up from Fort Lauderdale to have lunch with me. While there a pigeon had escaped quite a torrential downpour outside and wandered around the restaurant. I tried to help chase the bird out, but only succeeded in getting the bird to fly into the lobby of the resort. Sorry, Biltmore!
