Tried Bonefish Grill in Columbus for the first time. Great food, so so service.

Kinda weird seating during the day but food was perfect…  my snapper was fresh and the pizza had the brick oven, this crust feel.

A very enjoyable breakfast at this very upscale restaurant in downtown Portland. I had the breakfast croissant sandwich with roasted rosemary potatoes. The sandwich was filled with eggs, cream cheese, tomatoes and bacon. The roasted rosemary potatoes were cooked as hash browns and topped with diced tomatoes. Over all I must say that this meal [...]

A short walk from our condo, we walked in right before they closed (10pm on a Sunday during Memorial Day weekend) and still managed to get good service. Our waiter, Jacob Whitney, was truly a delight! Now for the food … we started with Fried Dill Pickles and Gator Tail a la Fud. Next we [...]

Great lunch specials! Sicilian Swai Pasta, Horseradish Swai, and Shrimp over Grits. Yummy!!

We’re here for the #NRB12 conference and staying at the Gaylord Hotel so we met for dinner at Ravello. WOW… I was just blown away by the menu! Couldn’t decide on any ONE thing so thankfully they have a wonderful sampler of appetizers that Sandy and I shared! Cotto e Crudo is a sampling of [...]

Tried a new place in Panama City Beach this trip. My mother suggested J. Michael’s Seafood & Oyster Bar right across the street from Captain Anderson’s, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The oysters were the coldest I had ever had, and the seafood gumbo was absolutely delicious. It was the perfect choice on a chilly [...]

Had an amazing dinner with some wonderful people to celebrate my birthday before Thanksgiving! The crab cakes were divine…of course, but the mango mousse captured my heart!

Elegant fine dining experience!

Another Auburn University home game means another fun visit to The Creole and Seafood Shack on HWY 14 W in Auburn. After a much closer homecoming victory than was expected, my great friends Crissy, Gina, and Mike decided they wanted to try dinner at The Shack. The place was PACKED, so obviously Chip and the [...]

A new seafood place on Veterans Parkway, The Big Catch is really catching on in Columbus. The fried shrimp basket with the jalapeño may be the best I’ve had in the area.

I recently tried fish fry for the first time. It seems to be a popular dish to be had on Fridays in place of meat. This of course would apply to those that follow a catholic faith. I’ve had most of my fish frys in the western ny area and i’m always craving this dish [...]

Smokey Bones has really improved over the years. I go frequently and get the teriyaki glazed salmon with the Mac n Cheese to die for.

To be honest, majority of the “sit down” places in Portland are just plain good compared to other places I eat at home. I guess it’s because there are so many restaurants here that you have to serve good food in order to survive. So that brings me to the East Ender. I started with [...]

Finally got a chance to try the crab cakes and can I just say that I wanted to BATHE in the sauce!!? They only serve them on Friday so make sure you get them when you can!

Oh my… crab stuffed trout with PURPLE sweat potatoes made my evening fabulous.  Followed by the bread pudding of my dreams.  It doesn’t get any better than this.

Never disappointing, Hunt’s Oyster Bar and Seafood Restaurant on Beck Avenue is a regular destination whenever I go to the beach. Although their specialty is oysters, there are always tasty alternatives to choose from on their varied menu. The raw oysters are always delicious! But the three cheese Cajun-baked are always a treat as well. [...]

This is just my favorite salad ever.
