Since the application for membership asks for your favorite resturant I was wondering if there was interest in a forum or whatever to discuss resturants?
It could include stuff like:
Actual reviews
New places
Restaurant experiences
What do you like in a wait staff
pet pevees
great times
etc.
I am new and still kinda lost in this site so if you are interested you would need to helpme figure out what to do.
A couple of places that I love are C'est La Vie on Main Street and Maximillians on 10th. Maximillions is a tiny sandwich shop - they make GREAT veggie salads (well, there is chicken on them, but they will charge you less if you opt for no chicken). YUMMY.
I am pretty sure both locations are only open during the week for lunch.
I love trying new restaurants as I've only been in town for just under 2 years. We visited Tommy Bahamas (St Armand's Circle) for the first time a little over a week ago. I wasn't prepared for the prices but have to admit it was some of the best tasting food I've had since arriving in Florida. This is on our "return to" (once a year if we can afford it) list. After our fabulous meal, we walked from the restaurant down to Lido Beach and had a great full moon beach experience, burning off maybe 1/20th of the calories taken in. If $30 meals and $11 drinks don't make you quiver, check this place out. Bonus, they give you a 25% off coupon good in their clothing store downstairs.
We visited Sun House (south end of Anna Maria Island) for our 35th anniversary. Wonderful food but the total bill says it will stay a special occasion place, at least until I get a job. But their Jamaican style chips with pineapple salsa are incredible. And it was one of the best Key Lime Pies I've had since coming to Florida.
