Re: Great but Gone MB Restaurants
Just thought of a few more, but my memory is fading.
There was a restaurant on one of the house boats on Indian Creek in the late 60's or in the 70's that was called "(Something) Just a Hobby" The 'something was the owner/chef's name and I cant remember what it was. Like "Robert's Just a Hobby." You needed reservations and there was a very small seating and only one service time each evening. The owner/chef cooked what he wanted and did a serving and it was all free. It was his hobby and while I never went there I was told the food was great.
There was a great ice cream parlor in the downstairs area of a hotel on Collins somewhere near 32 street. You could park on one of the 00 blocks and there was a door at street level that took you directly into the parlor.
About the Sambo's/Denny's, and the place I am trying to remember, it was there before that as far back as the 50's and 60's. It was like Woolfie's, but a bit more refined.
Also just into North Bay Village, Fun Fair. Great pizza or chili burgers.

What about Sonny's Italian on 21st. And I think the ice cream parlor was the Nasharie in the old Saxony Hotel. They had the best desserts ever.

Re: Great but Gone MB Restaurants
Thanks. That was the place in the Saxony. My favorite dessert was the Appian Way, a concoction of ice cream and malted milk powder and other goodies.
I also agree on Sonny's on 23 street. Great shrimp scampi and pizza. But I didn't like the owner or his friends or the way his delivery guys drove.
