Alligator Pear Destin

Food trucks have become a popular thing on the streets these days, and I'm so excited to see them parked and open for business in Destin. I came across this one totally by mistake, and once we saw the name we had to find out MORE. Alligator Pear is another name for avocado, and to me that's just another name for butter....meaning delicious :) I lost count on how many times I've eaten here already, as the food is amazing and the couple that runs it is super sweet. My favorite item is the Carnita Torta and the Watermelon Tea is the icing on top. Right now the truck is parked East of Beach Liquors, in Destin, beside the Track, but being mobile they could possibly change locations due to change of seasons. This is definitely a stop you don't want to miss!

Hard Rock Destin

Everyone loves Hard Rock Cafe, and I think the biggest buzz is collecting a T-Shirt from every Hard Rock you pass....in your lifetime! Spring Breakers have arrived this week, and I know they will be stopping by Hard Rock for a great meal, and walking out with a bag of T-Shirts.

Hard Rock Cafe is located at Destin Commons, across the street from Bass Pro Shop. Our Hard Rock Cafe in Destin does so much for charity and I encourage you all to check them out. Please be sure and ask when their next fundraiser will be taking place so you can participate and give back to our community.

WHO DAT got the best WINGS in Destin?

WING STOP in Destin, Florida has the best wings ever and their staff is simply AWESOME! Tonight we decided to have our Super Bowl Party there instead of watching the game at the house. While Ortie and Irene are big Dallas and Jets fans, they helped us pull for our beloved SAINTS tonight! Super Bowl Sunday is a BUSY day for wings and as you can tell, once you've cooked a ridiculous amount of wings....well, you might just turn into a wing. LOL!! (Thanks for the picture Irene)

WING STOP has many flavors of wings, but my favorite is the lemon pepper, and yes....there french fries are the best you'll ever eat too. WING STOP is located in the Wal-Mart shopping center in Destin, Florida so please stop in and order your favorite flavor today.

WHO DAT think they gonna beat them Saints? Nobody gonna beat them Saints!!

Destin Sushi

Sushi in Destin can be found in several places, but one of our favorites is Sakura which is located in the Old Time Pottery Shopping Center. We always get two Sushi rolls, and an order of combo fried rice to share. Of course my favorite sushi roll is the crunchy shrimp, and I always ask them to add cream cheese which makes it a creamy, crunchy shrimp roll. Most people dunk their rolls in soy sauce, but I always ask for some of their spicy mayo to add to my soy sauce. Believe me......that makes it even BETTER!

Pepitos - Mexican

For the best Mexican in town I highly recommend Pepito's. Pepito's has been serving our area for many years, and it's definitely a locals favorite. Monday night is .99 cent Margaritas, and the service is always outstanding. My favorite dish is the Shrimp Quesadilla and I always have them add grilled onions....YUMMY!!

Pepito's is located in the shopping strip located to the left of Old Time Pottery. Be sure and catch a movie at Lively Cinema when you leave!

Landshark's Pizza

Today was the big day of Championship games for the NFL, so we decided to go out for Pizza. We went to Landsharks and ordered our usual sausage with extra cheese and it was good as usual. There was a big crowd enjoying the game there today. As a special treat they even brought out oysters to the buffet bar. There were raw oysters and baked oysters. The baked oysters were baked with cheese and jalapeno's on top and they were absolutely delicious. Landshark's is located in Destin right next door to Old Time Pottery. If you catch it just right you should go around the corner and catch a movie at Lively Cinema. Thanks Landsharks for the special treat today.

McGuire's Farewell Dinner

Tonight we joined 11 of our friends for dinner at McGuire's. We actually took one of our dear friends out before she leaves us next week to move back to Boston. We will miss you Molly, and wish you the best of luck.

McGuires's was the chosen restaurant, and as always the food and service was great. Our table had a nice variety of food such as salads, hamburgers, sandwiches, ribs, steaks and prime rib. McGuire's has a great menu, and their lunch specials are the BEST! My favorite lunch special is served on Wednesday's, and it's fried chicken, mashed potatoes and collard greens...YUMMY!!! Don't forget whether you are having lunch or enjoying dinner they still serve the Senate Bean Soup for only .18 cents with the purchase of an entree. Where else can you get an appetizer for only .18 cents?
