Florida Keys Local, Joins Coastal Friends In Real Estate Sales, Rentals, Special Events, and Wedding Venues

The Upper Keys most famous residents. Captain Key Largo, Brian is visiting with them-Tarpon!!
David loves the Keys and Florida lobster on the weekend. Who doesn’t?

American Press Travel News–February 11th,–Islamorada, Florida Keys-David Epstein joined the local professional real estate folks at Coastal. He is working with their team  to assist in all manner of real estate programs. Yes, David is my eldest son, but I only brag on the best people who are “people, people”, Dave loves to work with good peeps. His brother Brian is Captain Key Largo. Dave can find great realty, Brian great fishing opportunities. Both of them were brought up in the Keys, and went to all Upper Keys schools. Their friends are called “Keys Kids”, even though they are all over 50-years old, and the Keys has always been their home. Some left, but the lure of the Keys has brought most of them back. The siren call of the Keys is hard to ignore, it stays in your blood and psyche, forever!

Lets face it: Key real estate is pricy, but great rentals are also available at similar costs to all other water front locations throughout Florida. I love the Keys,I will always treasure the decades my wife Barb and I lived their and brought up our boys with respect and to respect nature and people who also respect the best thing life has to offer. Give Dave a call on his cell phone if you want to sell, or buy, rent, or even for any travel information and specifics about the Keys!  (305) 394 5350 You will love the little fishing and diving village of Islamorada, even just to visit!!

American Press Travel News-Nov 30th-Bob and Barb “On the Road Again”–This time in Islamorada, FL Keys, for TG-Day with family-also visiting and tasting the best of Islamorada at Bayside Gourmet.

Several locally created micro-brewed beer options, are Keysie, pleasee!!!

We met Jaclyn and Anthony Boffice owners and our hosts, to get a taste of their offerings, and oh, what a treat we were in for.  We kicked off our meal with Lobster Bisque. The bisque’s flavor and texture on a scale of 1-10 was an easy 10.

She brought out her Signature Meatballs, an appetizer perfect for the cooler weather enjoyment of real, hearty meat. The Margherita pizza was superior to all the veggie pizzas I have had anywhere. We imaged the Tavernier sandwich, made on home- made focaccia bread gently warmed with its topping of fresh mozzarella, imported prosciutto, tomato, fresh basil drizzled with virgin olive oil (we boxed this for a later meal, how much can we eat, after-all ?) Veal Parmesan also boxed after tasting-um-um great< and then the Chicken al la Gourmet (panic and herb encrusted chicken breast pan-fried and topped with sun-dried tomatoes, fresh spinach and aged provolone served over rice pilaf with a balsamic reduction) was tabled. Couldn’t stop the mangia effect. WOW! We finished up with coffee and 
Jersey Shore Cheesecake (whipped – one of their signature dishes).   Barb and I added up our 1-10’s, and there was no dishes rated under 10-plus!  We took all we could not fit in our stomachs for a later, or a tomorrow buffet of tastes. Give a call, and head right over when you can. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and they have a bakery of all home-made cakes, pies and bread products-Fer get about it, but not their number-305-664-2002 

Happy Thanksgiving to All!!!

American Press Travel News–Bob and Barb on the Road Again–Stopping to Smell the Roses and visit the reefs of the Florida Keys!!!   But first: Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, wherever they are, or have landed with family and friends!!!!

The Diamond Tea Room & Bistro

American Press Travel News- November 8th,–Its not often we are pleasantly surprised when visiting a new food emporium. This time we were, big time!

First off, the way to enter into, and leave the Tea Room & Bistro is through Diamonds By Terry Jewelry Store. After passing all the handmade, one- of- kind, gold and silver pieces crafted by Terry, you step into a beautifully appointed and decorated restaurant. Real themed table ware and cloths, teapots, and super comfy chairs, and get ready for a surprise. The surprise is their foods. Barb and I tried spectacular squash and broccoli soups, lobster cakes (lobster flown in from Maine, weekly) and a chicken Picatta. Fresh fruited sangria and peach tea. Of all the restaurants we dine out in (60-at last count in PSL, Ft. Pierce and Stuart) this amazing restaurant “took and gave the cake.” From the soups, salads, Tuscany bread, and the terrific personality of Terry, the owner, and Jewelry Manager Dea, we could not have been more pleased and happy! For dessert we had home made hot carrot cake and I slid my spoon into homemade Spumoni chock full of pistachio and cherries. On a 1-10 this tea room was a 20!
