Bocas House, Coral Gables – USA
I don’t usually like milkshakes and I blame my mum for that. When we were kids we had our medication with strawberry milkshake and since then I can’t go near the stuff – and even the smell of the Mc Donalds ones makes me feel ill. However, I specifically went to Bocas House for one…
