This picture only begins to showcase the epic adventure I’ve had over the past five days. Last week, Jill and I embarked on a life changing trip to Miami. The reason?

Mi Casa Es Tsukasa
I ventured into new restaurant territory last night. My friend Lauren has been raving about Tsukasa for weeks. A Japanese Teppanyaki restaurant?
