re: Gulf Coast Beach Condo rental rates

Posted by JTBrett on 4/22/24 at 2:47 pm
I've written the gulf coast off for the most part as well. It truly is cheaper for family of 4 to go to the Caribbean for a week, which we've been doing for last few years. ...
[quote]You can get to Isla quickly if you hire a car service. Carm is $100 both ways including ferry tickets $69 without. A cab will cost $80 each way.[/quote] Good information. Thanks....
[quote]It's a 15 minute ferry ride.[/quote] Sure - but if it's raining or there's a delay you can easily tack on some time to a trip. Not that big of a deal, but when I have a small window like this I try to keep things simple as possible. Sounds like most don't think it's a big deal which is good ...
Flying into CUN late July. Initially planned to stay in Isla Mujeres, but debating whether it would make more sense to stay mainland due to short nature of trip. Few questions: 1. For those familiar with making the trek to Isla, does it make sense logistically to try and spend the extra travel ...

Yes sir. And agreed. I’m waiting for the right person to do it in BR, because we sure as hell don’t have it :lol: For shops that have made it more than a couple years, BRQ has done a good job at pumping out what I would call “run of the mill boring brisket” and some decent chicken and pork ...

[quote]If you are going to do brisket you either have to run out, or do it poorly.

[quote]That work life is brutal[/quote] That and inventory management is also brutal trying to put out good product when you are trying to establish yourself and understand customer volumes. Incredibly hard business to own/operate. It’s fairly easy to do one right at home as others have noted...

re: Fresh Crawfish Tails

Posted by JTBrett on 3/30/24 at 6:39 pm
Interesting. I actually don’t care if they have been frozen. It isn’t a delicate meat and I almost always have them in a sauce, so I’m not paying a premium for “fresh never frozen”. ...

They share the wine list with the restaurant, so they have a pretty nice list. I just find it interesting I haven't heard anything about it, but it seems to have a decently "fun" and higher end bar menu.

I've heard good things about the new setup/food at Emeril's, but I haven't heard anything about their "wine bar" "next door". Any thoughts/reviews of the place? [quote]Paramount Caviar Service 150 Hybrid Sturgeon Marinated Olives 9 Sardines 14 Avocado, Creme Fraiche, Pickled Shallot, Grille...
