Brown Cafe Bon Voyage Weekend!

[Old International]

The only food problems that I will have is the shrimp and green beans and beer will cause my Gout to flare up. So I will be visiting the doc and getting some little pills to fix the problem..........

OK, you've got me wondering. What can't you wait on? The cruise of the get together before the cruise? Are you going with us?

Wondering if we are going to have unannounced guests for dinner?

Or find a few brown stowaways ? LOL

 

[Old International]

Are we going to meet somewheres? We are 23 days out at this time. Time to firm up the plan.

 

[dilligaf]

Sounds like a good idea. I vote late sat afternoon or early evening. Trp and his wife will not be in until sat afternoon.

Also, location. I'm not much into big set down meals ( I know, the main dinner room on the ship..lol) but if that is what everyone else would like to do, I'll do and like it.

Go find a Miller Alehouse, they have a few of them. Very cheap beer, drinks, food.. the food... yummy, and great, and cheap !
Lots of room in them too. It's a huge sportsbar, and diner.

[trplnkl]

that's a possibility....Steve is our host for that evening, I hope he can afford the place....

 

[dilligaf]

No South Beach or Miami in the lot, Klein.

 

[dilligaf]

I take that back. The first time I looked at it it didn't load all the addresses. Cool. I like this idea.

Np, I took a menu with me as a souvenier, and also to show canuks how cheap you can wine and dine in Fl.
Here are just a few examples: 12 oz Ribeye Steak, served with veggie of the day and choice of baked spud, frenchfries or rice $12.99
12 oz NY Strip : $13.95, same sides. Really delicious !

Seafood Combo (Shrimp, Scollops, Calms and Fish fingers) $12.99 (with coleslaw, hush puppies, and choice of potatoe).
Seafood Sampler $11.95

They also have monthly specials that change every month :
But are daily specials, like prime rib for $10.99, or Twin lobster Tails for $17.95.
Plus daily lunchspecials from 11am-4pm $4.95 buys either Potroast, or Pittsburger, or Meatball sub, or Pasta Carbonara, or Turkey dinner (specials probably change monthly as well).
Dad's meatloaf or fish and chips (Th and Friday) : also $4.95

Drinks : $5.00 pitchers of miller beer, $2.00 Forster pints.
I think I heard you'll be there on a Saturday ? 5 bud for $10.00

other drinks are always on special too. I had a few $1.00 magaritas, they were good ! They usually have a special drink on sale daily for $1.00 (like wiskey sour, cape cod, Tequilla Sunrise, or Bay Breeze).

I'm sure stud has been there. I recommend it very much, esspecially for larger groups....

Ps, I do have the menu here, if anyone cares to know how much thier favorite meal costs.. (off the menu on thier website), I can look it up.

This actually happens to be one of my favorite restaurants. I have one on my route and eat there frequently. I think this is a great idea, as the place is very laid back and inexpensive. Good recommendation Klein! All in favor say aye.

Well thank-you ! I ate there often too. I miss it. If I was back in FL tomorrow, it would be my first stop. Awesome food, great steaks !
Anyways, for those that have never been to Florida... remember to bring a sweater, or a light jacket into restaurants. They are sooo over-chilled from the ac.

 

[dilligaf]

AYE! and there is one in N Miami Beach.

 

[klein]

AYE! and there is one in N Miami Beach.

Thats where (close to) the Nudy Beach I went to !

 

[trplnkl]

sounds like my kind of place...AYE.

I had originally planned on going. About the time I was going to buy the ticket my 21 year old son got into a horrible motor cycle accident. He made it through but is badly banged up no head trauma. Curshed his right leg in 3 places. It has been a slow recovery. The guys at my center say if I wouldn't have bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all. I just thank god every day. The devil gives me hard knocks but god softens the blow. So I will be on vacation that week will think about you guys often. Have a no several drinks for me. dsm

 

[dilligaf]

And we'll think of you and pray for your son to have a speedy recovery. Best wishes D

deepsouthmamaw, Our daughter is 23, I can't imagine how stressful it would be if she went through something so traumatic. I'm sorry you are facing such a difficult situation. Hopefully we will get to do this again next year so you can come along with us in 2011.


As far as a pre cruise dinner on Saturday definitely count us in. We're in for whatever everyone else wants to do. Millers Ale House looks like a great choice. Do we need to call ahead and reserve a table?
