Joella's Hot Chicken in Viera, FL

I had Joella's Hot Chicken highly recommended to me. Specifically, I was told to try the restaurant's Pimento Cheese Chicken Sandwich. I stopped in when I was in the area, and was a little surprised that it was a regular fast food restaurant. I had Joella's described as a chain of gourmet hipster chicken restaurants, but that was inaccurate. The building was similar to a Zaxby's.

As for the Pimento Cheese Chicken Sandwich, think a Chick-Fil-A sandwich (fried chicken and pickles) with added pimento cheese. It didn't look great, but the sandwich did have much more flavor than the Chick-Fil-A equivalent. I had macaroni and cheese as a side.
Joella's Hot Chicken was okay. It was a bit over hyped when I had it recommended to me. Good for Joella's for creating that hype though.

Harry's Pizzeria in Coconut Grove, FL

Was in Coconut Grove and had lunch at a restaurant called Harry's Pizzeria. They had a lunch deal going on where you got a salad, drink, and pizza all for less than the price of a pizza by itself. That's what I went with obviously. I picked an Escarole Caesar for the salad. I enjoyed that they put anchovies on top of the salad.
I had the Pesto Pizza. This pie had pesto for the base sauce and was topped with ricotta, mozzarella, parmigiano, and tomato slices
