And even more Valentine’s Day restaurants. . .
Pinon Grill (6000 Glades Road, 561/391-7770) at the sprawling Town Center at Boca Raton has a few specials for your V-Day dining pleasure. (For the calendar-impaired, that’s Saturday, Feb. 14.) Among the offerings are bouillabaisse with mussels, clams, shrimp and scallops in saffron broth; wood-grilled brie-crusted filet mignon on a bed of wild mushrooms; and traditional tiramisu. You can order off the regular menu too.
Passionate carnivores will want to head over the Abe & Louie’s (2200 Glades Road, Boca Raton, 561/447-0024), where $115 per person will get V-Day lovers a three-course meal. First up is king crab bisque. Then comes filet mignon with twin Florida lobster tails with potato gratin and roasted tomato demi, followed by a dessert of Belgian chocolate brownie with cinnamon ice cream.
In Palm Beach Gardens, Cantina Laredo (4635 PGA Blvd., 561/622-1223) is featuring a special cocktail—the Aphrodite Margarita—and a three-course meal that’s available from Thursday, Feb. 12 through Saturday, Feb. 14. For $35 per person you’ll get a choice of either mango salad or vegetable soup to start, sauteed shrimp with mango mole sauce or chicken breast with chipotle rancho sauce for an entree, and strawberries with vanilla ice cream and cinnamon chips or churros with Grand Marnier cajeta dipping sauce for dessert.
At Casa D’Angelo (171 E. Palmetto Park Rd., 561/996-1234), Angelo Elia’s excellent Boca Raton ristorante will be serving several V-Day specials, among them risotto with porcini mushrooms and white truffle oil and a 12-ounce bistecca alla Fiorentina.
And if you don’t feel like getting fancy or maxxing out your credit card, put on your flips and a clean t-shirt and wander into Grease Burger Bar (213 Clematis St., West Palm Beach, 561/651-1075). You don’t need reservations, just an appetite and teeth. Order your sweetie one of their ginormous burgers off the regular menu or chomp down on a special brie-stuffed burger on a bed of arugula, red onion, prosciutto and fig jam. Wash it down with something off their lengthy list of craft beers, boutique whiskeys and artisan cocktails.
And on a personal note, I’m off to the Sonoma Wine Country for the wedding of one of my best friends (and a little wine tasting on the side). Blogging will resume next week when I return. . .
