In the mood for some authentic Spanish Food. (I said Spanish as in Spain, not Latin) . That's spelled PAELLA!!! Drop by and visit with resident Spanish Guitar Extraordinaire Paco Aguilera and his wife and partner MariaElena. Tell them Alex sent you and ask for the Paella and Sangria. You won't regret it. If you are lucky enough to be in town on the weekend, try and catch the Flamenco Guitar Show a la Gipsy Kings. You can thank me later.

Walk half a block to some of the best Italian Fare and Brick Oven Pizza this side of the Atlantic. Say hello to my friend Marcello who runs this little gem and let him recommend something. Everything is good and he has a knack for recommending just the right thing. If you're lucky enough to get a table outside, enjoy the South Florida Breeze and a great meal. But hey, let's keep this one between us. Don't want it getting too crowded. Oh!!! I almost forgot. Check out their brunch! It's Benissimo!!

In the mood for some craft beer and wings. Maybe a mouthwatering HUGE Burger. There's a reason the locals hang out here. Maybe it's the ice cold beer, the mouthwatering wings, the burgers. Maybe it's just the great atmosphere to watch the game on the flats screens. Oh wait!!!! Check with them for the entertainment lineup. There's always great live music on their patio stage.

"You have to have the Philly Cheese Steak." I don't know how many times I've been hanging out with Pat and Dave (The Owners) at this Hole in the Wall and a traveler walks in and asks for a menu and Pat yelps out his go to phrase. Enjoy a cold beer and listen to stories by one of the most animated restauranteurs in the business. Conversations vary with the wind. One moment you're talking about Golf and the next politics or fishing or crabbing. You name it, Pat is an expert. Remember... don't ask for a menu. Just ask for the Philly.

You'll have to drive or take the Shuttle for this one. Another Local Favorite, A little dark and grungy but the wings are great and the beer is cold.

Okay this is my go to almost everyday and sometimes three times a day. Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner. This place does so much business the food is always fresh. Looks like a convenience store from the outside but I challenge you to find better food in the area. While you're there you can stock up on some craft beer or wine from their impressively extensive selection. You can also get sundries and or stock up for your trip to the beach. Ask for the Churrasco Skirt Steak and Fries or pick from the daily specials displayed and made fresh every day.

If you've tried Crackers for Brunch already and want to feel like you're stepping into a time machine. Walk over to Carol's Cozy Corner and have yourself some traditional American Fare. This place feels like you went back in time to the 50's. Great Food. Great Prices. Great Place To Check Out.
