RER 2.15.14
This weekend I was lucky to not only escape the dreary weather of the North East, but also attend my boyfriend’s sister’s intimate wedding ceremony down in the Cocoa Beach area of Florida. Temperatures were warmer, but what made the trip the most enjoyable was spending time with the families and being a part of the small gathering. While we were away, there was a ton of eating, of course. The groom’s mother mentioned in one of many toasts, during one of many meals, that both families like to talk and to eat, which was made quite obvious during this celebratory long weekend. I had some seafood at Milliken’s Reef at Port Canaveral,

This was just the beginning. The restaurant landscape was quite different from up here, as there were more chains and fewer "mom and pop" establishments—we tasted a little mix of both.
