Café Centro’s Supper Club starts today
A Northwood stalwart in West Palm Beach has reinvented itself recently—new look, new chef, new menu and a fresh start. Welcome to Café Centro, which starts a supper club tonight, with jazz and pop sounds and Italian dishes. Tickets for this new Monday night feature are $25 per table seat, $10 per bar seat and these include a glass of house wine or beer. Purchasing an entrée is required.
Other entertainment plans for Café Centro are: Thursday Ladies Night, with soulful sounds by Tessie Porter; Friday Unwind, with smooth R&B and jazz with Gregg Jackson; Music is Life Saturdays, with duo Maycol & Lilian. Plan on a lot of music with your meal from Executive Chef Jamie Steinbrecher.

Truluck’s launches lunch service at The Galleria
If you’re bemoaning the closing of Truluck’s at Mizner Park (just before this venue won a Wine Spectator award, too!), then you’re in luck if you don’t mind driving a bit south.
Truluck’s Seafood, Steak and Crab House in Fort Lauderdale’s Galleria has been around a while, and just started serving lunch as well as dinner. Dishes include sashimi salad, beef tenderloin medallions, Faroe Island salmon, lobster roll, farmhouse burger and more, as well as a prix-fixe, three-course menu for $30. There’s also a Truluck’s in Miami. Breathe.

Beachfront Dune hosts preview for first-look crowd
The new Auberge Beach Residences & Spa in Fort Lauderdale is opening its Dune restaurant officially on Nov. 30. But if you’re interested in this indoor-outdoor dining and bar venue, you can pony up for a sneak peek during the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show from Nov 1 to 3. For $85 tickets per person, that includes an unlimited bar and a three-course meal from Executive Chef Edgar Beas (most recently from Santa Fe). Get tickets here.
The property has been built in part by The Related Group (builder of CityPlace, among other Palm Beach County properties). Other developers on the project include Fortune International Group, Fairwinds Group and Auberge Resorts Collection. Hours for Dune starting Nov. 30 will be dinner daily from 5 to 10 p.m. Lunch service to follow.
