As part of my south Florida adventure this week I drove up to Fort Lauderdale to visit my cousin and see her new apartment. She took me on a tour of the whole city including lunch at a place right on the river called Suite 100.
The restaurant has a huge outdoor patio with a fantastic view. Here is the view from our table:
We were a bit on the early side and had the restaurant all to ourselves. Our waiter was extremely friendly and attentive and didn't seem to mind at all when it took us a full ten minutes to decide what we'd like to order.
We started by splitting the margherita flatbread which looked exactly liked the Ellio's pizza we used to eat as kids. This flatbread tasted much like the Ellio's of our youth only it was topped with fresh tomato slides which redeemed it a bit.
For the main course my cousin ordered the tomato soup which comes with grilled cheese wedges on the side. She said the soup was even better than the last time she ordered it there.
I ordered what they called the "new" Caesar salad which is basically a deconstructed Caesar salad with the added touch of lightly grilling the lettuce. I've had this kind of Caesar before and its a nice change from the usual formula.
Our waiter informed us that Suite 100 has a very popular jazz brunch on Sundays. I could definitely handle a veggie omlette, a mimosa and live jazz on the waterfront. You?
