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!

Barb enjoying EVERYTHING!

AmericanPressTravelNews.com-Dublin, GA.-November 7th,-Bob & Barb “On the Road Again and feasting again! We headed out from Page House B & B into town by car (although it was in walking distance) and stopped in front of Deano’s Italian Grill. We are familiar with the great tastes that come out of a wood-fired brick oven, and when I saw the massive grill full of various Italian dishes and pizzas being done to perfection in the black-body heat method (cooks through and through quickly and leaves all dishes moist and not dried out) of radiating cooking temperature, perfect for doing dishes perfectly, I sat down-period!

Robert and Jennifer Shaffer owners and operators, both graduates of the Culinary Institute of America in New York, came from Florida to Dublin in 2010, to do their thing! And boy, do they do their thing. Their wait and cooking staff are really committed to this restaurant,  as besides loving the fare, they respect and like the owners as well, I learned this based on me asking a few of them how they like working at Deano’s.

So what did we eat, well, we popped a pizza, a chicken marsala dish, Calamari dish to perfection and then desserts to salivate over. So we were talked into a Crème Brule’ that was fab-plus!img_6218

Pizza Bruni, a delight to the eye and the palate!

Calamari was light floured and flash fried. It came with marinara and cherry pepper sauce. The citrus garden salad was crafted with strawberries, mandarin oranges, grapes candied walnuts and Gorgonzola cheese with balsamic vinaigrette.  The Chicken Marsala was a pan seared chick breast with delicious sauteed mushrooms, in roasted garlic butter and Marsala wine sauce. We finished our meal with Coffee and crème brule.

Yes, Barb was really digging in to it all!!

AmericanPressTravelNews–November 3rd, Dublin, GA.-Bob and Barb “On The Road Again”, yet “Stopping to Smell the Roses, and Great Dishes Along the Way.”- While in Dublin, GA and staying at the amazingly beautiful Page House B&B, we went into town to check out the great restaurants Mono, Owner of Page House told us about. The first location was called Company Supply. Well, the name really fooled us as I hear it does to newcomers to Dublin. First of all, The owner Richard Mascaro’s company mission is to provide their customers with all natural, hormone and antibiotic free-food  choices. They also strive to source organic and local when available.crawfish-cakes

We sat down and enjoyed reading the menu which began the juices flowing: Craw Cake’s for an appetizer caught us first – a mix of craw-fish tails, spices, Trinity and Panko bread crumbs, cooked to perfection, accompanied by corn and feta salad with Creole aioli-viva the tail! Superlative appetizer!

We also checked out Sweet curry chicken salad, Chipotle Pimento  cheese,  Black-Eyed Pea Hummus. Served with warm pita bread. Call Cole Trio Coco Cole Trio.appetizer-tapas

General Supply as they call it, offers there award winning main entree: Delta chicken. A grilled breast, sauteed spinach sun-dried tomatoes, becamel sauce, goat cheese, and served over garlic roasted mashed potatoes. Zowie! We loved this dish too-if you remember from other posts, we are big on garlic and so is Mascaro.chicken-mascaro

Brian Curry and Nicole Boulete, owners of the Corner Grill put in considerable work and efforts to cleanup to develop their new business! Food, cleanliness and decor was terrific!!!!

APtravelnews-Port St. Lucie, FL-February 18th,–Bob and Barb “Stopping to Smell the Roses” at The Corner Grill.  The Corner Grill  Restaurant, located in the Bridge Plaza just off Port St Lucie, Blvd.  1068 SE Port St Lucie to be exact, is owned and operated by Nicole Boulete and Brian Curry. This is no run-of-the-mill Grill! Serving breakfast and lunch, the Corner Grill puts out some mighty large and tasty meals. We first met the folks here when we stopped for breakfast last week. Barb said that she was very happy with her egg dish, and I agreed with my cheese omelet, that everything tasted fresh and there was no greasiness to anything. We decided to go back and have lunch today! We were very glad we did. Our positive suspicions were correct; this is no ordinary food emporium! What we ate: We started with Hidden Shrimp. Perfect shrimp covered en cruet by delicious melted mozzarella cheese that also covered a tasty addition of spinach. We left nothing over!! We tried a Mac and Cheese Burger, yep! Mac and cheese on top of a perfectly cooked to our liking, burger with perfectly done fresh grilled bacon strips-WOWSER!!! We also tried an impressive pork sandwich with three different cuts of pork, pickles, more bacon, served with a cucumber salad. So big was this delicious dish that we could only eat half of it (yep, doggy/people bag is in our fridge now for today’s lunch too)  although if my stomach was as big as my eyes it would all have gone down, right then!

Roomy and airy, decorated with all manner of marine and tropical metal fish and palm tree scenes, the place was very relaxing and our waitress was very nice and friendly- yes, we even left her a decent tip, for a change in exchange for great service! The Corner Grill is open now for two months and from Monday to Saturday from 7am–3pm and on Sunday from 7am to 2 pm. Ask about their special Friday breakfast which also includes coffee! Give a call 772-249-0087, although, just stopping in will always get you a table too! They serve dishes such as Poquine  (French Fries with a gravy and cheese curds, yes ate that too) and other French Canadian specialties!P1030296 P1030299
