Miami Love Chrissie returns to South Florida as often as she can, as this is where all her family still is. What she misses the most, besides her family, is the richness in culture and people. "People are bilingual there —speaking Spanish and English. And it's just so fun. Sometimes I'm like, Oh my God, I haven't spoken Spanish in such a long time, unless I'm talking to my mom on the phone. And the food. Oh my gosh, the food," she says with a smile. In addition to her tia's kitchen ("she's the best cook ever!"), Chrissie loves eating at the restaurants she grew up on, like Di Piazza ("The best pizza. The garlic rolls are amazing."), Flanigan's ("Those ribs!"), and Chicken Kitchen ("Oh my God, there was one right in front of FIU, so I used to go for lunch there all the time when I was in college. It's so comforting to have that."). Dress: For The Stars Fashion House IG: @forthestarsfashionhouse
