Vegan or interested in finally trying it? This happens to be an excellent restaurant. Very dog friendly and the owners are around a lot. Serves wine and specialty teas and great deserts! Not cheap.

Fantastic Cuban food, open 24 hours. In my humble opinion, the only protein you want to eat at a Cuban restaurant is pork or steak, pork being the best. The rice is unreal, with back beans and plantains. I love their breakfast sandwiches. Made to order, I just ask for egg, cheese and bacon, toasted well. Great coffee! Beware, it comes with sugar unless you tell them not to put it in. Colada is expresso with sugar (tiny serving but jet fuel) and cafe con leche is expresso with milk and sugar.

Dunkin'

Sushi Jo
319 Belvedere RdGood sushi. I can't walk out of there without spending $50 on myself.
Excellent food at a good price. I like the thai lettuce wraps and the Greek salad with chicken. Noisy at night. Lake Worth is like City Place, dozens of restaurants and bars. Some shops are open at night or on Sundays.

In the Brazilian Court Hotel, this is my very favorite restaurant in south Florida. It's very expensive but worth it. The brunch is reasonable and a delight. The service is perfect. Seating is indoor and outdoor. I always sit outdoors. I have been thanked several times for taking friends there, even when they were paying!

This is Latin flavored "fast-food" chicken and pork place has been a hit with guests. They cook the chicken on huge grills and it's lightly but deliciously seasoned (I think with lemon and garlic). There are 3 locations closer to Chez Holly that are not showing up on the map, so I recommend that when you're ready for some chicken or pork, rice & beans, or combo salad, you just google the locations. They usually have a drive-thru but if you haven't tried them before, you should go inside. They have a sauce & salsa bar that is very good (I particularly like the garlic cilantro dressing & curry mustard).

Drinks & Nightlife
Outdoor mall with dozens of restaurants and shops. Almost all stores and restaurants are chain. Almost all restaurants are good. I have never had a meal at Cheesecake factory that I haven't liked. It's menu is like 25 pages long. It doesn't take reservations and in season everything is super crowded so go in between meal times or be prepared to wait. Off season it's no problem going whenever you want to. Also good is il Bellagio, an Italian restaurant next to a beautiful fountain with water that dances to music. In season, there are concerts on the weekends. Other good restaurants include City Cellar Wine & Bar (takes reservations), Brio (takes reservations), Ruth Chris Steakhouse, Panera Bread (inexpensive), Saito's Japanese steakhouse, Mello Mushroom - the list is endless. There's also a great movie theatre, Muvico (with Imax). Google CityPlace, West Palm Beach and you will find a more complete list of what it has to offer.

My place is perfectly situated 1/2 way between Lake Worth and City Place in West Palm Beach. Both have a lot of restaurants and bars and a significant party scene. Lake Worth has a lovely beach with a good restaurant (Benny's on the Beach) on the pier over the water (a must do). Lake Worth is more folksy than City Place. Both venues have great ice cream places.

Before City Place, Clematis Street was the downtown scene. City Place is on Rosemary Street, which runs north/south; Clematis Street runs east/west and ends at the water on Flagler street where there are piers you can walk out on. At the end of Clematis is E.R. Bradley's Saloon, a good restaurant and bar. But there are plenty of good restaurants from the intersection of Clematis and Rosemary down all the way to the water. Clematis street has more late night clubs.

Arts & Culture
Eclectic collection. Small museum. Visitors have told me they were underwhelmed or disappointed. I felt the same way until my brother, an art dealer, pointed out some of it's merits. It's a great couple of hours to see a few famous painting, a sculpture garden, and have lunch. They always have one traveling exhibit.

Less than 15 minutes away, with free and easy parking, you should see what is showing here. There are multiple venues within the center, but the main stage has big productions like traveling Broadway shows. I like the Kravis a lot because it's not too big and the acoustics are good (unlike the Broward Center for the Performing Arts). You can pre-order and pre-pay for a drink that will be ready for you on intermission. Now that's civilized.

It's a bit of a trek, but there is no coastal town that is closer. It is well worth the drive. There are always coupons on line. Plan at least four hours. You will get up close and personal with wild animals which you will view from your car, and you can feed the giraffes.

Every year for 2 weeks in January, the South Florida Fair takes place. It is huge and everyone goes, young and old, and not just once. The rest of the year it hosts all kinds of shows, such as RV shows, gem shows, gun shows, etc. It also has yesteryear village, which I am not familiar with.
