I hadn’t been to Michael’s in several years. Last weekend, I had a hankering for some fondue, so off we went. Michael’s is best known for being a steak house, having long waits and being a little annoying about seating you sans reservation. Last Sunday night I did not make […]

B.O.’s Fish Wagon is a Key West institution. Buddy Owen has owned the place seemingly forever. B.O.’s is an open air shack. It is a more permanent version of the now-popular food truck.
I have been telling you about some summer specials going on here for a while now, but this one takes the cake. Grand Cafe is offering locals (sorry, visitors, we have to have a few perks for suffering through the summer heat.) 50% off during the month of September. Everything. […]
Charming, independently owned restaurants, with good food and service are not abundant in Washington, DC suburbs, particularly Reston. Last weekend, while visiting, we found ourselves at Passionfish in the Reston Town Center. It is part of a mini-chain of various restaurants in the Washington area owned by the same restaurant […]
Nothing says happy birthday like a good breakfast. So, when in Lancaster for a wedding, we were also celebrating my mother-in-law’s birthday and started the day off at Ida’s Cafe. Like my sister-in-law so astutely observed: a restaurant has to be good if they can close by 2 PM.

We make our way up to the dessert room at Bern’s. To call it a room is a bit of a misnomer. In fact, it is a big space with many individual wooden-enclosed booths, complete with doors. Weird is an understatement. It is, however, unique.
Imagine relaxing on a cool, breezy day, palm trees swaying, sitting in the shade with a view of the beach and a cocktail in hand. OK, it felt like it was 200 degrees outside and I was drinking iced tea, but you get the idea. Like many other businesses in […]
I had never been to Bagatelle restaurant in all of the time I have spent in Key West. As I recently got the Restaurant Card, with a two-for-one entree I decided to give it a shot. Overall, there were many positives and a few negatives to the dining experience.
The Key West Woman’s Club raises money for all sorts of charities. One of the ways they raise money is by selling the Talk of the Town Restaurant Card. This card costs $95 each, with proceeds going to local charities. The card entitles you to two for one entrees at […]
