Taste & See

I had been in grind mode for the last three weeks. I didn’t want to deal with anything that didn’t concern Nico or basketball. All-Star Weekend was great as always. I had a couple phone calls from Eva, but I didn’t feel like talking. We had texted a few times after Kobe’s passing, but nothing too deep. She made her choice as far as our relationship was concerned and I was trying to make sure it stayed there.

I was prepared to spend another Saturday in the house, watching footage of the Black Mamba since we didn’t have another game until Tuesday, but Nico wasn’t having it. He walked into the living room fully dressed and grabbed my iPad from my hands.

“We’re not doing this today, bro.”

“I’m studying.”

“You’re in a funk. We gotta get you out of the house.”

“I don’t feel like going outside.”

“It’s February in Miami, this is the best damn time to go outside. Don’t make me get Mo on the phone.”


I thought about it for a second. I knew he wasn’t bluffing.

“Alright, man. What do you want to do?”

“For starters, let’s celebrate that your boy got accepted to the University of Miami.”

“What? Are you serious? When did that happen? I know I’ve been out of it, but damn for real?”


My brother had gotten accepted into every college he applied to so far. All of them in the state of Florida. He’s already set on being my branding manager once this is all said and done. But he wants to experience college. Maybe even build up his clientele. I know he really wanted Miami so he could be close to home.

“Nah, I just got the letter a couple days ago. Trust me, you haven’t missed anything.”

“This is definitely cause for a celebration. What do you want to do today? Anything you want. Name it.”

“Well, I feel like I need some new clothes. So, I’m thinking we should head to the Design District.”

“I figured that was on the list.”

“Maybe hit the beach. Ride Go-Karts. I just want to have some fun with my favorite brother.”

“Favorite brother, huh?"
I laughed. "Give me like forty-five minutes. I’ll grab a shower and we can head out.”

3 hours later, we’re leaving Miami Design District with a trunk full of shopping bags. I think he tried to clean out Eric Emanuel and Off White. He also apparently needed a new pair of sunglasses from Gucci. This kid is something else, but he deserved it without question. And he was right about getting out of the house and into some of this Florida sunshine. I was feeling better than I had in a while.

We’re cruising through Wynwood when we spot a food truck called Taste & See. The name looked familiar, but I couldn’t remember from where.

“Yo, this is Chef Dani’s spot. We should support,” said Nico.

That was it. Dani King was the chef that catered his private birthday dinner last month. She was recommended to us by DeVante Parker. And the food was great. We pulled into the parking lot and headed over. A girl around Nico’s age held a tablet in her hands.

“Welcome to Taste and See. What can I get for you?

“Hey, is Chef Dani in?”

“Yep. One second.”
She walked away from the window and soon Dani appeared.

“Nico, Tony, hi! Great to see you again.”

“Sup, Chef Dani. Let me get the steak alfredo with some fried shrimp. And a Cherry Pepsi.”

“And for you, Tony?”

“Um, let me get this pineapple bowl. Steak and chicken. Regular Pepsi for the drink.”

“Got it. Total is thirty-eight dollars. I’ll have this out for you guys in a few minutes.”


Nico and I grab a seat at one of the tables she had set up near the food truck and wait for our food. As promised, the food arrives 10 minutes later.

“Chef, you got a few minutes to join us?” Nico asked.

She looked over at her food truck and saw that her employee was taking a couple orders.

“Yeah, I’ve got a few minutes.” She pulled over a chair and sat between us. “What’s up?”

“I just wanted to say that this plate is lit! What’s on the shrimp? This isn’t regular fried shrimp.”

“Thank you, but I can’t give away all my secrets.”

“Respect. Respect. Tony, we need to get this on social media. People need to know about this spot.”

“You right, bro. Get a pic of me and Chef Dani.”


After a few pics we let her get back to her customers. Nico turned his phone to me.

“You guys look good together, Tone.”

“What? Chill out, bruh.”

“I’m just saying. What would it hurt to ask her out? I’m tired of seeing you mope around. Eva moved on, right?”

“We don’t talk about her, Nic.”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I need you to get the hell out of the house and out of my hair. Madison and I haven’t really kicked it in a couple weeks. I love you, but you’re always around, my dude.”

We finished our meal before heading back over to the truck to take a couple more pictures and I even signed a few autographs. After taking some pictures with Chef Dani and her employee, that we found out was her sister, Deja, in front of the food truck. More people began showing up, so we decided to stay for a little bit longer and sign a few more autographs.

“Thanks, so much, guys. We really appreciate all of the support.”

“No problem. I only stand behind what I believe in.”

“I really appreciate it, Tony. Seriously.”

“No problem. Seriously. I would like to ask you something though?”

“After all this publicity? Anything.”

“Totally unrelated to the publicity, although I would like to know about the sauce you used on my pineapple bowl, but would you like to go out with me some time?”

“The sauce is a King family secret, but I’d love to go out with you. I still have your number, so I’ll text you from my personal phone and let you know when.”

“Cool. I’ll let you get back to your customers. Have a good night.

"It looks like we’re gonna have a great night, thanks to you.”


I walked over to my truck where Nico was waiting for me. My phone vibrated in my pocket from an unsaved number.

I know you have a game tomorrow night, but how about when you get back in town? The truck is open just for lunch on Tuesdays. Only if you’re up to it.

I texted back it’s a date before slipping my phone back in my pocket.

“My man,” Nico said. “So, when is the date?”

“Shut up and get in the damn truck.”

If Snow had played more minutes the outcome would have been different. But Dallas has nothing to lose at this point.

Lil bro with the assist.
