How's about some OYSTERS on the half shell. You can't beat Hurricanes in Seaside. At least not the last time I was in town. Been a couple of years. Any other place locally that does as good a job and as tasty?

Goatfeather's for good oysters on the half shell!

Just back....we ate at La Paz -absolutely wonderful & fresh & creative Mexican food.

My college sons pressured us (wink) to go to Hard Rock,,,had a 40 minute wait( have heard of 2 hour waits-it is pretty small)...food was really great there...we had the Tuscan Salad...served on this long suare plate and it was FABULOUS!!!!

Help! We can't recall seeing the ROYAL ORCHID that several have recommended. Please tell us where it is? Thanks!
And now here are our recommendations: BORAGO's, SMILING FISH, D&K's, Vintij Wine Bar & Restaurant (on 98 across from Silver Sands), Ole Sole Mio (not sure if that's spelled right) but it is just a little further down 98 as you go toward Destin. Have frequented all these spots multiple times and never, ever been disappointed. All are Terrific!

Heading west on Hwy 98 it's a short way down on the left from the Silver Sands Factory stores, in a strip plaza with MoJo's, surf shop,etc.

Ate at Blue Orleans for breakfast, based on recommendations in this thread. The Cajun Omelet was fantastic, the beignets as an "appetizer" were super and the strong coffee was tonic for an early morning Sunday.

The whole staff makes you feel at home, the atmosphere is certainly a toned down feeling of Bourbon Street on 30A. It's a cozy scene where everyone seemed to be having a good time, a place where the employees and the customers are all in sync.

Definitely will go again. It's on 30A in Blue Mountain Beach across 98 from the bike shop and the health food store.

Does anyone know if Nina's(Nena's?) off of 98 West before you get to Destin is still open?

Nena's sold along with the small track behind it. 24 townhomes and a pool will sit where Nena's is located, and single family lots starting around $220K each are available now, with closing to begin around Sept '05.
