The Big Tip: Do not attempt to walk in a Restaurant around 7:00 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. and not be ready to wait at least 90 minutes.

Hog Snappers is a spot that is tucked away in Tequesta and is my local favorite. They have everything I want to eat from seafood dishes, sushi, oysters, and to outstanding and flavorful salads. The staff is very welcoming and laid back. The atmosphere is that beachy Costa Rican vibe.

Coolinary Café
So this is technically Palm Beach Gardens but this place is where you get food with a difference. The food is great and the menu has a twist to it that adds to the experience. Bring a special date to eat some different tasting food and enjoy and nice selection wines. I recommend trying the Rabbit Sausage & Noodles and then finishing with the Carrot Cake Inspired Waffle.

Vulcano’s
When I was growing up in Bella Vista near Jupiter Bay. I used to go over to my friend Tommy’s house on Sunday for an outstanding authentic Italian meal.

It just so happens that Vulcano’s was started by Tommy’s Aunt and Uncle. So if you want the most authentic Italian taste, stop in for
