"Thats So Sarasota" Food Tour: KOJO Steakhouse Multi-Date: Cropped Top + Jean Skirt + Louis Vuiton

Hi loves! So, on today's post I am back in my stomping grounds of the art district in downtown Sarasota and I am continting my food tour.

We are back at this hotel that I stayed at a few years ago in the most expensive site suite they have, but this time, I am in a different room (this is the third room I have stayed in here that was different) and I have a pool view.

7. Kojo Steakhouse The Arts District

This is another stop in my food tour for Sarasota. Today we are having dinner at downtown's KOJO.

A lot of times I go to restaurants not because I have heard about them through word of mouth, but because I found them and followed them and became a fan. So, yea I wanted to try this place out and FYI now they are opening one in St.Pete. Now, bear in mind these photos are not recent, I have been working on this food tour for over a year, but I checked the menu and everything shown is still offered.

 

While in the Arts Disgrict of downtown for me if the weather is great then please opt to eat outside! It was October and it was a great night and it wasn't even busy outside (it was inside).

So, unlike most restaurants the miso soup was gluten free; it looks delicious and my husband had it.

I actually ordered this meat with the Chimichurri sauce (I needed the protien due to extenuating circumstances whi h brought us here). It was a decent amount and enough to share.

I love woke fried or sautéed veggies so this was also mine and man, I couldn't even eat all this food! We shared my food and my husband also had all his food! I actually had to break this into two posts because we just didn't realize the portion sizes were so large.

Everything was relly great and this is definitely worth a stop! The important thing I want to say again is that this is the Arts district so there is more stuff to do around here after your date and it isn't that far from St.Armonds Circle as well.

Hubby's Bao Buns

Our next stop: The Art Ovation Hotel

We have stayed here before and I loved all of the local art which is produced and sold by the students at the Ringling College.

There is Art all.over the hotel and tonight there were serval Art showing going on. They also had extended an area of the hotel that usually is reserved for the ballroom and events to show additional Art.

If you like local artists I would suggest checking out the local artists who are students at the Ringling College. Their art is shown and sold at the hotel in the Arts Dostrict of Sarasota at this hotel.
