Last week, we lunched at The Waterfront Restaurant on Anna Maria Island with two friends from the neighborhood.

What a treat!

From a table overlooking the intercostal waterway and Anna Maria Pier, BFF opted for seafood . . . jumbo lump crabcakes with Creole mustard sauce and fries:

I debated between several entrées and appetizers before settling on a bowl of the Soup du Jour (Beer Cheese Soup) and a small Caesar Salad: 

The pair paired well together ~ crisp, cool salad, crunchy croutons, and velvety rich soup . . . reminiscent of a robust Welsh Rarebit.

Our companions ordered Pork Sliders and Slaw (one of the daily specials), and a delectable, delightful, decadent, delicious dish ~ Truffled Gouda Mac & Cheese.  J offered me a taste.  One word . . . yummy!

Next time, I’m going to say C~H~E~E~S~E! 

Aah . . . that’s better!
