We love creative craft cocktails, and both of these lived up to the hype. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (L) and Kill Bill (R). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/7ac8e807-60f6-4afd-bcc4-dc0127178914/20261011_193613.jpg Eat - Bonita Foodie Reviews: Blackbird Modern Asian - Wok-Charred Edamame ($11) The edamame was one of the simplest surprises. I’ve never had edamame prepared this way, and the char from the wok added a grill-like smokiness that transformed a typical appetizer into something I’m still thinking about. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/cd968c69-0c0b-4e24-98b3-6b0165675233/20261011_193412.jpg Eat - Bonita Foodie Reviews: Blackbird Modern Asian - Pork Belly “Tiki” Bao Bun ($7) I’m a sucker for a bao bun, and Blackbird’s “Tiki” version was another highlight. The bao bun was thin and pillowy soft. The pork belly was melt-in-your-mouth tender. Grilled pineapple, serrano chili and sweet and sour sauce achieved a perfect balance between sweet and heat. Peanuts added texture and a welcome crunch. The combination of these ingredients made each bite interesting. My only complaint is that we only ordered one, so I had to share it with my husband. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/c2c14694-11e7-4751-a804-df682a2b12e1/20261011_195045+%281%29.jpg Eat - Bonita Foodie Reviews: Blackbird Modern Asian - Thai Beef Jerky ($19) Our server recommended we try the Thai Beef Jerky. The beef in this dish is dried and then fried, which results in meat that’s tender on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside. A hint of sweetness was easily balanced by the accompanying smoked chili and Chinese mustard sauces. My husband and I agreed that the mustard sauce balanced the meat’s flavor best. (And that's a strong endorsement from my husband; he doesn't even like mustard.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/026e0fa8-927c-4d8a-b99d-db736e79c6c2/20261011_194938.jpg Eat - Bonita Foodie Reviews: Blackbird Modern Asian - Tuna Poke Crispy Rice ($19) Though it wasn’t without merit, this was a bit of a “miss” for us. The tuna was fresh and delicious. However, I wished that the rice was fried a bit crispier for a better texture contrast with the tuna. And although the wasabi tobiko seasoning on the plate looked innocuous, it packed a fiery punch. I discovered that the hard way when I dragged my rice through it, a spicy mistake I only made once. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/90fc1553-17ac-4927-a6dd-059881295ada/20261011_201236.jpg Eat - Bonita Foodie Reviews: Blackbird Modern Asian - Bangkok Street Noodles ($25) We finished our meal with a bowl of Bangkok Street Noodles. This was our least favorite dish for one reason: They were sweet. None of the listed ingredients prepared us for that — in fact, they have a “spicy” warning on the menu. (Which was fair because every so often a fiery bite sent me scrambling for water.) This was one of the few misses; the sweetness overwhelmed the other flavors, and it lacked the sweet-heat balance achieved by other dishes we tried. The noodles themselves were wonderful and the highlight of the dish. https://www.bonitafoodie.com/eat/know-whats-in-your-bowl-ramen monthly 0.5 2026-10-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/7c7f9e49-cee4-4797-b213-6d7dafaa600b/20261008_134145.jpg Eat - Know What’s in Your Bowl: Ramen My most recent ramen fix was Pop Onigiri’s Miso Tonkotsu (pictured here). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/83eeae37-92cb-40cd-8fa9-284e7528552c/20260922_202024-EDIT.jpg Eat - Know What’s in Your Bowl: Ramen Pop Onigiri’s Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen https://www.bonitafoodie.com/eat/where-to-eat-outside-in-bonita-springs-wear-your-flip-flops-edition monthly 0.5 2026-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/42195573-d517-4b6c-8d77-f6aac9d73dee/20261008_174255+%282%29.jpg Eat - Where to Eat Outside in Bonita Springs, Wear Your Flip Flops Edition Sunset views at Doc’s Beach House https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/f5f9a534-4be8-46ec-8aa0-e7eabf659e15/20261008_174438.jpg Eat - Where to Eat Outside in Bonita Springs, Wear Your Flip Flops Edition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/06d76e4c-8cbf-4f1b-a623-4bdd47195ce8/20261008_180152.jpg Eat - Where to Eat Outside in Bonita Springs, Wear Your Flip Flops Edition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/ba230d7f-0b7c-4773-a7b7-c86055477af9/20261008_173537.jpg Eat - Where to Eat Outside in Bonita Springs, Wear Your Flip Flops Edition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/2983c90d-2331-485d-bedd-5280f558373b/20261008_181438.jpg Eat - Where to Eat Outside in Bonita Springs, Wear Your Flip Flops Edition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/f543a9e5-f6b9-40fe-98d9-7eae95fab4e6/20261008_182823.jpg Eat - Where to Eat Outside in Bonita Springs, Wear Your Flip Flops Edition https://www.bonitafoodie.com/eat/the-bonita-foodies-guide-to-eating-in-bonita-springs monthly 0.5 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/b88639a9-6c71-4f4f-8bd8-c743d704d444/20231117_133438.jpg Eat - The Bonita Foodie's Guide to Eating in Bonita Springs, Part 1 - A past daily salad special, with their quiche and ice tea in the background.

This is the cocktail that started my culinary cocktail rabbit hole — so obviously, I had to ask Lauren, who created it, about it. (Naturally) it’s one of her faves, too: “‘Garden-to-Glass’ is probably one of my favorite cocktails. It embodies every flavor I would want: herbal, citrus and that hint of spice.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/31178e69-b490-4357-8560-f31c922c07a1/Blank+2+Panel+Portraits+Comic+Strip+%281%29.png Drink - Getting Local with Garden-to-Glass Craft Cocktails - Pictured here are two drinks that use those shrubs: Spa Water (L) uses their cucumber shrub, while Watermelon & Salt (R) uses their watermelon shrub. https://www.bonitafoodie.com/thingstodo daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/96edaf36-6435-4a5e-9d45-e2db3d2938d8/nataniel-susantoputra-rJctOLt1CAQ-unsplash.jpg https://www.bonitafoodie.com/thingstodo/where-to-celebrate-oktoberfest-in-bonita-springs monthly 0.5 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/6f012b3f-a76f-4a30-967e-e0d27222b091/vivu-vietnam-fN6HB_vALOM-unsplash.jpg Do - Where to Celebrate Oktoberfest in Bonita Springs - Make it stand out Photo credit: Vivu Vietnam on Unsplash https://www.bonitafoodie.com/home daily 1.0 2026-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/e570e427-b82a-4822-bc0e-be24d10d0a04/redd-francisco-o1SDSKCe8IE-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/b2aaf09f-5f50-4dc4-b081-566f56c6635d/alex-haney-CAhjZmVk5H4-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/6b4fb129-4465-4867-89dd-9c76340e94f9/kobby-mendez-xBFTjrMIC0c-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/7c8be192-bd6a-4a93-8a1c-8fbff885b567/nataniel-susantoputra-rJctOLt1CAQ-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/ef3f95ba-530f-482e-9811-f1d989ecac07/kate-dacres-mannings-S8-ZTH7qy7w-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/7d45377a-8903-48da-8751-796209d11f93/kelsey-chance-ZrhtQyGFG6s-unsplash.jpg https://www.bonitafoodie.com/about daily 0.75 2026-09-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/a586e291-1140-44d6-a43e-1625888cdbef/annie-spratt-2wwiwYJve_g-unsplash.jpg https://www.bonitafoodie.com/workwithme daily 0.75 2026-09-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/0b946d49-a7a9-43fd-bb6f-32eeadb1c21a/sincerely-media-ylveRpZ8L1s-unsplash.jpg https://www.bonitafoodie.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://www.bonitafoodie.com/services-store daily 0.75 2026-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/1780620297.232179-EPIWBFKOBYFOEQTOBSSD/imgg-gg3p-BCHSH-1f1a6af1.png https://www.bonitafoodie.com/services-store/p/advanced-service-35kgs-kzj8d-l7ekx-kxzhg monthly 0.5 2026-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/1780620297.745548-XMVEDKCDFKULRWKDAUPG/imgg-gg3p-BCHSJ-396f2c14.png Services - Seasonal Fruit Tart https://www.bonitafoodie.com/services-store/p/advanced-service-35kgs-zggck-bgbeb monthly 0.5 2026-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/1780620297.702305-IVCFVBXRQQRSEGFJIPUW/imgg-gg3p-BCHSJ-5d4ad26b.png Services - Artisan Croissants https://www.bonitafoodie.com/services-store/p/intermediate-service-dxtp2-fmpk5-4j2ch monthly 0.5 2026-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/1780620297.811091-BRIVWBTQHSSKVVKSNOBP/imgg-gg3p-BCHSJ-7221a5c6.png Services - Private Wine Tasting https://www.bonitafoodie.com/services-store/p/basic-service-6c62w-e6g3j-p7ddx monthly 0.5 2026-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa04584934a8f49e0ea74dc/1780620297.738722-ZRAJYQPJLDBSKDWXZACJ/imgg-gg3p-BCHSJ-d9c107bc.png Services - Craft Beer Flight
