Bubba Gump Shrimp



Bubba Gump Shrimp, Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica, Ca, Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter.
I got the "I am stuffed with shrimp, see pic" This was 20 bucks. It tasted ok but I did not like the texture of the cheese with the shrimp. Cheese with seafood is not a good thing.
It was fresh and hot. Service was good. What you expect at a tourist joint.

I would come back.I would just keep to the simple recipes.

Ginger Bistro

Ginger Bistro, Surfside Blvd., Cape Coral, Fl., Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter.

Lets start with chit chat.....Disappointing.

1st... though the website said 11 AM when I arrived there was nothing showing if they were open.
If you are disabled or have a hard time walking, the front door, It is 35 yards away via a path.    ( Note only 2 handicapped space nearby).
The decor is very nice. They have the window with the ducks. BUT NO pork belly for sale , only at Ft. Myers.
The food. I order the Mongolian beef extra hot. It was 10 bucks, a small portion and even with the extra hot not very hot. 2.50 for soda with a refill. The dim sum is very good.
Food is good but NOT as good as the original.

This is a sanatized version of the one in Ft. Myers. ..DISAPPOINTING
If I wanted a floridian chinese place I would go to the other multi joints around.

I want I need the real deal Like the GINGER BISTRO in FT. Myers.
I guess I will make the drive there for now.

Eat at Joe's

Eat at Joe's, PCH, Redondo Beach, Ca. Here is my 2 cents on the food and chit chat. 
I order a pancake sandwich for 10 bucks but it came self assemble required. See Pics.
The food is excellent, hot and tasty.They are willing to adjust the menu for your needs.The portions are a good size. Everything I saw coming out of the kitchen was looking good,
Prices were reasonable. It is a few blocks close to the beach so the place was crowded. Breakfast service was friendly and considering the crowd the waiting was not that long. They are open early but close at 2pm.
They have 2 big sitting areas and the counter. 
Parking is very limited.
So if in the area give them a try.

Wingnuts Pub & Grub

Wingnuts Pub & Grub, Del Prado Blvd, S Cape Coral, Fl., Here is my 2 cents on my food and chatter.

I am not a wing person...Especially since they do not give the  full wing any more.
Wingnuts give you the present day style  of wings plus a WHOLE LOT more.
Fried bologna sandwich, house made tater tots & deep fried twinkle to Name a few.
If they don't have it it has never been made yet.
I got the Philly cheese steak and Cole slaw. $11 bucks.

I must say it tasted good. The side, Cole slaw was only standard fare.
But the size of the buns were smaller than I wished for. Though I will applaud them. They did stuffed and fill them as much as possible.

Plus considering the 100 items & combination of food it is really staggering. The menu is reall TOO big....
If you cannot find something to eat. You are too picky.





Service was great.

Wendy's

Wendy's , Hancock Bridge Parkwy,  Cape Coral, Fl., Here is my 2 cents on the entree and chatter. I took the drive thru.... I got to go 2 - 50 cents Frosty's ,  a Large fry and a small double cheese burger
I was thru the drive thru in less than 2.5 minutes...Paying and driving away with my order. Pulled in my garage with the food still hot in 10 minutes

The Frosty's were cold but tasted nasty. I  have had better shake else where. Bad vanilla. Bad chocolate. What do you expect for 50 cents.
Now the burger was fine with the extra pickles & onion. Large french fries wonderful

Over all and excellent fast food meal. & service

Capt'n Fishbones



Capt'n Fishbones,  Tamiami Trail, N. Fort Myers, Fl. Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter.
Well I stuck with the basic fried fish and fries & house made sweet tea.
It was good. What suprized me was the house made tartar sauce, cocktail sauce and sweet tea.
These were outstanding. As well as  the service. It was a bit touristy but fun and very nice place to visit.
I am glad there is a very decent eatery to enjoy at a family joint.
Worth the drive for the local yodels.

Bubba's Roadhouse & Saloon

Bubba's Roadhouse & Saloon, Pine Island Rd, Cape Coral, Fl. Here is my 2 cents on my entree and chatter.
This is carnivore heaven. I order a 32oz. Marbled rib eye, mash garlic potatoes with green beans. Along with, wait for it, a fantastic in house made lobster bisque.With chunks of lobster.
Corn muffin ...with 2 fer 1, Scotch /w Seven up $4 bucks

This was a manly meal for a carnivore. Steak cooked to a perfect medium rare, green  beans/bacon a tad crunchy. The mashed taters with bits of mild chunks of garlic.
My only other issue was the gravy. I hated it. But Danna resolved my problem.
The meal was fit and prepared for a Manly King Carnivore...Wonderful




So if there are still any real men left in this wimpy state come on down and enjoy a real manly meal.
