I am a Florida Native, having travelled nearly every inch of the state for food. From the freshest seafood, to the smallest dive bar, to splurge-worthy establishments, my love of food knows no boundaries. Growing up, my dad cooked homemade meals every night; he also worked as a concierge at a high-end hotel. His homemade meals were inspired by his line-cook experience as a teen, and his concierge profession often came with VIP invites to some of the finest restaurants in town. This experience developed my wide-ranging palette, giving me the unique desire for comforting home cooked meals as well as refined dishes that highlight the beauty of food. I am a foodie at heart, and I am happy to share my experiences. My reviews are authentic; I feature only those restaurants that genuinely impress me.

My name is Tatiana Rodriguez, and I am passionate about all things food. Alongside my boyfriend Kobie Simmons, I co-founded "Weeatfoodsoflo," a food page on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Since 2020, our mission has been to showcase local businesses and share our culinary adventures with a combined following of over 130,000 enthusiastic food lovers.

Through "Weeatfoodsoflo," we highlight the vibrant food scenes of various cities we visit, celebrating diverse cuisines and uncovering hidden culinary gems. Our journey has deepened my appreciation for the artistry and creativity within the food industry. As a judge, I bring a unique perspective shaped by years of exploring flavors, documenting food experiences, and engaging with a large community of fellow foodies. I am thrilled to contribute to the South Florida Tacos & Treats Festival as a judge, eager to evaluate and appreciate the culinary talents of the participants.

Marc Targownik, Owner of Floridian Foodies has been a food enthusiast for most of his life but just recently moved to the sunshine state. For almost a decade he has been filming restaurants in New York's melting pot of flavors. He is on a mission to travel city by city to try Florida's diverse variety of cuisines and share his experiences with you through mouthwatering videos on Instagram and their premier foodie publication. He is excited to help declare South Florida's best (Tacos or Desserts)!

​Fueled by a deep passion for food, I've been exploring and sharing culinary experiences since 2020. Through my social media journey, I've built a vibrant following by showcasing diverse restaurants and dishes from across the country. I believe that every meal has a story, and my mission is to uncover these narratives and connect people through the joy of food.
