Del’s Freez – Melbourne, FL

2013-04-29T15:12:28Z

With the rare opportunity to dine out this week and finally coming into the 21st century with my Nexus S, I thought I’d start blogging again about some of the great local establishments I was able to favor this week. First on the list, a true Melbourne landmark for a late night treat, Del’s Freez! [...]

Negril’s – Winter Park, FL

2010-06-20T01:03:26Z

Yesterday we were tossing around ideas for lunch and nothing seemed to be fitting the bill. I suggested swinging by Negril’s: Flavors of Jamaica, off of Lee Road, since we always pass on the way to another one of our favorite joints, Rhino Subs. In any case, I haven’t had really great Jamaican food since [...]

Cafe Maspero – New Orleans, LA

2010-06-06T16:42:04Z

Before we caught a flight home, we had a few hours to spend in New Orleans to see the usual sites. We took our daughter to the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas, which was a lot of fun, and then headed down Decatur Street to find some lunch. My cousin works in the area at [...]

Olde Tyme Cakery, Creamery, and Candie Shoppe‎ – Broussard, LA

2010-06-06T16:02:00Z

After a very satisfying meal at Nash’s Restaurant, we walked across the street to Olde Tyme Cakery, Creamery, and Candie Shoppe to look for something sweet for later. At Old Tyme’s they produce all types of cakes, sweets, ice cream, and candy, but the speciality of the shop, according to shop girl, is red velvet [...]

Nash’s Restaurant – Broussard, LA

2010-06-05T19:00:15Z

While visiting family in Louisiana this past week, we happened to be in town for my aunt and uncle’s wedding anniversary. To celebrate, we decided to grab lunch at Nash’s Restaurant in Broussard. Nash’s follows in the well established practice of converting an old home to a restaurant. For some reason, this seems to always [...]

Frey’s Crawfish House – Jennings, LA

2010-06-05T17:58:02Z

Having just returned from Louisiana I can definitely say I ate well and often. Since we spent most of our time at our relatives’ homes enjoying crawfish boils, étouffée, rice dressing, po-boys, BBQ, and other favorites there was little reason to go out, but we did get a chance to try a few good places. [...]

Stubs for mx.rpc classes moved to GitHub

2010-02-10T04:57:25Z

A short note. For simplicities sake, I’ve created a project on GitHub (http://github.com/blegros/flexRpcStubs) to house the mx.rpc stubs which help with testing Flex service classes. The HTTPServiceStub and RemoteObjectStub classes have had a couple of bugs fixes and I’ve added build script to generate a SWC for simplicity. You can read more about the stubs [...]
