Sorry it’s been so long since my last Lilash Update. I’ve been officially using Lilash for about 7 weeks now, and I am a believer!
Here are my lashes BEFORE Lilash:
Here are my lashes NOW:
Unfortunately, even though Lilash has definitely made my lashes longer and fuller, ain’t nothing you can do about how STRAIGHT they are. LOL. Asian is, as Asian does, I guess! But with a little eyelash curling magic, here’s what they look like with mascara!
←how crazy?!!
Thank you to Lilash for making my lash fantasy become a reality!!

FULL REVIEW
Miami’s always a quick getaway for New Yorkers. Years ago, I used to frequent David’s, which was a low-key, down & dirty Cuban place. But they’ve since let go of their space and have been reduced to a “take-out” window on 11th Street.
Much to my happiness, my friend Harmeet wised me up to Puerto Sagua 2 years ago. Almost identical to the old David’s I knew, Puerto Sagua is a two-part establishment on 7th & Collins Ave: one part is a restaurant, the other is a diner-type counter setup.
I’m no Cuban food expert, but I likes what I likes. Puerto Sagua delivers hearty, flavorful food, and never fails to satisfy. I try to eat there every time I’m in Miami.
My dining motto is always: FLAVOR before FRILLS. And that is definitely Puerto Sagua!
Here are links to the extensive, bi-lingual menu!
This past visit, I just had time for brunch (my last meal in Miami!), but here’s my delicious meal:
- Spanish Omelette: Spanish sausage, ham, potato and onion. This is like my ideal dish: 1) Egg a-plenty, 2) HAM = Pork, 3) Onions, 4) Spanish Sausage…even MORE PORK! By conventional “fine cooking” standards, the egg is probably over-cooked, but by “HP real people” standards”, this is PERFECT. SEOULDIVA SAYS: ♥♥♥♥½ / ♥♥♥♥♥
- Cafe con Leche: steamed milk with espresso. You may be scratching your head, “Isn’t this what a latté is?” Technically…yes. But Cafe Con Leche is SO MUCH MORE. I think the espresso portion is brewed with beans from Latin America so the flavor is more rich, less bitter, all flavor. So heavenly, in fact, that I had to have 2 cups!

- SAUCE! What would any dish be without fixins. In the middle of each table at Puerto Sagua Restaurant, there’s a host of condiments, ranging from salt & pepper, A1 to all types of hot sauces! This one was my fave:
