Comments Off on Palm Beach Gardens: Figs by Todd English

EAT PALM BEACH | FIGS I had lunch at Figs today and am somewhat disappointed that I haven’t tried this place out sooner. Something about restaurants located in the mall/department stores are hard to take seriously. But the food was seriously delicious. The service was great from the moment we entered the restaurant. The host was gracious and our server on top...

Comments Off on Palm Beach Gardens: Cafe Bistro @ Nordstrom

EAT PALM BEACH | CAFE BISTRO Café Bistro is a hidden gem located on the top floor of Nordstrom in the Gardens Mall. While the mall isn’t the first place I think of to grab a meal, Cafe Bistro stands out as a winner. It’s the perfect blend of casual but classy and a fairly quick stop for a nice lunch. The atmosphere is perfect for girls lunch (or day)...

Comments Off on Palm Beach Gardens: Cafe Chardonnay

EAT PALM BEACH | CAFE CHARDONNAY I recently visited Cafe Chardonnay for a birthday luncheon. I had been there previously for a graduation luncheon and have had their food at parties (Penne a la Vodka, Chicken Caesar Salad, etc). Cafe Chardonnay is perfect for special occasions with the upstairs loft dining area able to accommodate fairly large groups in a private...

They also offer omelets and salads. It’s set up...

Comments Off on North Palm Beach: Park Ave BBQ & Grille

EAT PALM BEACH | PARK AVE BBQ Park Ave BBQ has been a part of my lunch and dinner rotation at home and the office for years (NPB and PB Lakes locations). It’s casual, with legit portions and a good value. The decor is goofy, for lack of a better term, with decorations ranging from bedazzled”Eat Hearty” signs (Ed Hardy-style) to camo S.P.O.T. gear,...

Comments Off on Palm Beach Gardens: Alaina’s Bake Shoppe & Cafe

EAT PALM BEACH | ALAINA’S BAKE SHOPPE I’ve had Alaina’s cupcakes many (maybe too many) times. She is a family favorite for birthday cakes, baby shower mini cupcakes, open house cookies, you name it. Whatever the occasion, we seem to find an excuse to need her baked goodies. However, since opening, Alaina has taken off as a go-to for lunch and savory...

Comments Off on North Palm Beach: Paris in Town French Cafe

EAT PALM BEACH | PARIS IN TOWN Paris in Town is just as the name would suggest. Hidden in an unassuming strip on US1, Paris in Town is the perfect escape into a French cafe (and I always choose the US1 original over the newer Downtown at the Gardens location.) This is my favorite go-to for Sunday breakfast, or Petit Dejeuner, with my mom. At least once a month I...
