The Fat Snook

The Fat Snook | Cocoa Beach . Date night here this weekend was a WINNER🎰 . The Poblano Pesto Shrimp🍤 (with pumpkin cheddar grits) made the cover because it was *hands down* the BEST shrimp n’ grits dish we’ve ever had. One of those dishes where you keep shoveling bites down your spouse’s mouth because you want them to share in the wonderful taste-experience you’re having😂 The chorizo cream sauce drizzle is what made this dish! 👌🏼🍽 . Other must-orders: The scallion-drop biscuits with GUAVA butter (trust us!), and the unforgettable Key lime pie. SWIPE to see how ridiculously TALL it is. And yes, it’s worth EVERY calorie and cent it costs. . Mad love for the Fat Snook and their super talented kitchen 🖤🐟

Crydermans Barbecue

Finally got our hands on some @crydermansbbq today! 🐖🍽❤️ An authentic Texas-style BBQ experience to say the least! . Owners Chad & Amy opened this place less than a year ago and it’s already BUZZING with loyal locals who know what’s up. . Huge smokers right outside where that meat sits for houuurrs cooking to perfection. No shortcuts. Just BBQ done right. . Also their apple bread pudding was amazing. And the dirty rice 😍...everything!! . Located in Cocoa Village. GO!

Dirty Oar Beer Company

“This is what dreeeams are made of”🎶 (who can name that movie) . Seriously tho, please go follow @thebeardedchefeats and do not rest until you’ve tracked that truck DOWN. We can’t promise these pico-loaded fries will be there (😭) because the chef is always playing with his menu. But we see that as a good thing because he comes up with some super fun, creative dishes. . We got the Major General Wings, the Thai-My-Shroom Burger and the these pico fries. All were devoured embarrassingly quickly. And that burger (swipe to see what’s in it) is a top contender in a nation-wide contest that you can vote in! #blendedburgerproject . .

OSSORIO Bakery & Cafe

Ugh why is @historiccocoavillage just the cutest?🤔🤗 We don’t get there nearly enough. But here’s a tilapia sandwich that really hit the spot at @ossoriobakery . A QUALITY find in Cocoa Village. This quaint bakery/cafe makes everything from scratch and has tons of fresh pastries & homemade ice cream in addition to their mainstream menu items.

Paisley Vegan Kitchen

No we are not Vegan, yes we were skeptical - especially Tyler - but turned out to be a great cozy meal! . Our favorite was the French Dip sandwich🤤 The nachos and berry pie were great too. & bonus that our little ones loved it! We were just bummed they were out of their BBQ jackfruit, their most popular item. Look this one up, looks so good!

Pub Americana

🍳An egg yolk has a single purpose in life: to be runny, to be dipped, to be drizzled. Hard yolks are shameful blasphemy. . Luckily the “starving artist” pizza at @pubamericana got it right 😉 Thank you @chefrapharca for blessing the space coast with your talents👨🏻‍🍳🍕
