DINING
AROUND EAST NAPLES WITH PAUL & DONNA KOLBIAZ
We hope you've had an opportunity to try one or more of the restaurants
we've enjoyed in the last few months. What fun this has been!
This month we visited "The Real Macaw" on
Bayshore Dr. Our party of 5 had a delightful experience dining in
a tropical atmosphere unlike any other in Naples..........and there was
even a REAL Macaw! There was something on the menu to please
everyone's palate from the strawberry butter on the freshly made
johnnycakes, through the marvelous selection of gourmet Caribbean
entrees, to desserts to die for! There was a nice variety of fine
wines and beers to choose from as well. We felt as though we were
pampered the entire evening. This is one restaurant you don't want
to miss! It's a place to celebrate a special evening, special
event, or just treat your special someone. During this off-season they
are open for dinner on Friday & Saturdays. Although not
requested, reservations are suggested.
Wednesday's have been designated as Appetizer Night, so we decided to go
back and sample the offerings which range in price from $4.95 to $8.95,
while we were treated to a strolling musician. We were thoroughly
pleased as we enjoyed another truly enjoyable evening.
We decided to have breakfast this month at "M&M Down
Home Diner" and were glad we selected this place, which
looked like a little farm house inside. The food was just what the
name suggests: down home cookin', which we love, and the prices were
from yesteryear. This restaurant is located right next to Bob's
Barber Shop, in the Winn Dixie Shopping Center adjacent to the Village
Falls Shopping Center. They serve breakfast and lunch and even
offer free delivery from 7AM to 3PM. Would you believe bacon for
$.95? The food and prices were both very good. The luncheon
menu had everything from sandwiches & salads to the real
"down-home" serious southern lunches like Pot Roast, Country
Fried chicken or steak to Pot Pie and all you can eat Chicken &
Dumplings. The highest priced luncheon on the menu was Grilled
Port Tenderloin w/augratin potato for $7.95. You'll be glad you
tried this restaurant.
We're happy to say that the owners of these restaurants live and work in
East Naples, so let's support these fine establishments.
Next month we'll try to list all the restaurants in East Naples and
categorize them according to what meals they offer, ie: breakfast and
lunch only, fine dining, etc. Your suggestions on new places to
try, great places to try, etc., would be more than welcome.
Till next month,
Paul & Donna |
