Visit a pair of hot spots for lobster in Florida.

Florida doesn’t always conjure up memories of great lobster, but the delicious delicacy from the sea can be had in abundance near the Solara at Wellington. The Station House Restaurant and Miller’s Ale House Restaurant serve it up right.

The Station House Restaurant

The Station House Restaurant emerged from the remodel of an old train depot in Lantana, FL in 1993. This is one of the area’s most renowned establishments for authentic Maine lobsters. The Station House has become an undeniable favorite of locals and seasonal visitors since day one. (The visitors from the northeast often say the lobster is exactly same as it is in Maine.)

Miller’s Ale House Restaurant

“One and a quarter pound of Maine Lobster served with cole slaw and baked potato.” That’s all Miller’s Ale House website says about their best dish, and that’s really all you need to know isn’t it? No, wait a minute. That’s the special on Wednesday and it’s $14.95!!! If you’re a penny pincher, you may be hopping in your car right now to take advantage of this one. You won’t have far to drive.

Clearly the seafood scene in Wellington, FL is second to none. Get out there and enjoy the best of Florida coast.

Pancakes for breakfast?

So you woke up Sunday morning with nothing to do and a craving for some breakfast. A quick look at the bleak situation in your Solara at Wellington kitchen makes you think it’s time to get dressed, throw on a hat and find a solid pancake joint. Never fear, a couple of delicious options are available.

Original Pancake House

The Original Pancake House has been delivering delicious, fresh breakfasts in Florida for more than 55 years. This place cooks up more than 25 different pancake, crepe and waffle options every day. Every day you can enjoy two pancakes, two pieces of bacon or sausage and two eggs anyway you like them for $4.99. Your quest for breakfast is complete and it only took a three-mile drive from the Solara at Wellington.

Nick’s Diner

Nick’s takes you back to the heyday of breakfast diners in the 1950s with a classic menu including steak and eggs; country fried steak and eggs; and the stellar Hangover Deluxe. The Hangover Deluxe knocks out that headache with an order of biscuits and gravy topped with cheddar cheese, potatoes, bacon, fried chicken and scrambled eggs for $8.95. Everything is all better now. This will require a trip into West Palm Beach, but it’s worth the drive folks.

Solara at Wellington residents do not need to search far for great restaurants. Follow us on Twitter for all the best places.

South Florida Remodeling, Renovation and New Home construction. We are giving a new facelift in Jupiter, Palm beach gardens, West Palm Beach, Deerfield, Pompano, Wellington, South beach and all South FL!

Our main contracts on properties include: renovation, remodeling, home improvements, commercial, building, general contractor, builders, construction, Beach Front Pools, room additions, custom estate homes, hurricane impact windows, design build, waterfront homebuilder, commercial industrial tenant build outs, bathroom, restaurant, clubs, lighting, painting kitchen, cabinetry, granite counters ,flooring, and roofing. The main cities we handle are North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Jupiter http://www.jupiterremodelings.com , Hypoluxo, Wellington, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Deerfield, Coral Springs, Royal Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Lake Worth and Fort Lauderdale. When remodeling or renovating your home, nothing is more important than hiring a good contractor.

Everybody’s doing it. While the housing market may be experiencing a temporary downturn, our remodeling projects all over Florida continue to hold steady simply because many home owners have decided to stay put in their current homes, opting to upgrade rather than move. Some of L and L construction remodeling projects are becoming a necessity as the average age of homes in America reach just over 30 years old. But older home or new, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and other South Florida homeowners are adding, expanding, reconfiguring, and remodeling their homes more than ever. Every year, over 25 million homeowners in the U.S. make some kind of improvement to their homes and remodeling projects are no exception. Major remodeling projects now make up a large part of the money invested by homeowners. These include complete home remodeling, additions and kitchen upgrades.

As a general rule, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom remodels will return the most value per invested dollar when it comes time to sell a home. If you decide to give your house a face-lift it’s important to find the right remodeling contractor. Choosing the right remodeling jobs is important, and your remodeling contractor should be able to help you with the jobs you should do to maximize the value of your home. Financing your Delray Beach remodeling project may also take careful consideration. If you need to borrow money for a major project, you should be aware that there are a number of ways to get the money you need. You always want to shop for remodeling loans with the lowest interest rates, make certain your payments are tax deductible and most importantly don’t put yourself in the situation of over borrowing and possibly losing your home.

If you’re planning on undertaking your own remodeling project, it’s important to have a plan and determine your budget to see if your plan is financially feasible. You’ll have to decide if you need a loan and what type of loan will be best for you. You’ll need to talk to your remodeling professional and make certain you can get all the necessary permits. Any remodeling project can be a stressful time but if you take your time, do a little research beforehand and work with your remodeling contractor, you can make any home improvement job a smooth process.

Description:

South Florida Remodeling, Renovation and New Home construction. We are giving a new facelift in Jupiter, Palm beach gardens, West Palm Beach, Deerfield, Pompano, Wellington, South beach and all South FL!

Our main contracts on properties include: renovation, remodeling, home improvements, commercial, building, general contractor, builders, construction, Beach Front Pools, room additions, custom estate homes, hurricane impact windows, design build, waterfront homebuilder, commercial industrial tenant build outs, bathroom, restaurant, clubs, lighting, painting kitchen, cabinetry, granite counters ,flooring, and roofing. The main cities we handle are North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Jupiter http://www.jupiterremodelings.com , Hypoluxo, Wellington, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Deerfield, Coral Springs, Royal Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Lake Worth and Fort Lauderdale. When remodeling or renovating your home, nothing is more important than hiring a good contractor.

Everybody’s doing it. While the housing market may be experiencing a temporary downturn, our remodeling projects all over Florida continue to hold steady simply because many home owners have decided to stay put in their current homes, opting to upgrade rather than move. Some of L and L construction remodeling projects are becoming a necessity as the average age of homes in America reach just over 30 years old. But older home or new, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and other South Florida homeowners are adding, expanding, reconfiguring, and remodeling their homes more than ever. Every year, over 25 million homeowners in the U.S. make some kind of improvement to their homes and remodeling projects are no exception. Major remodeling projects now make up a large part of the money invested by homeowners. These include complete home remodeling, additions and kitchen upgrades.

As a general rule, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom remodels will return the most value per invested dollar when it comes time to sell a home. If you decide to give your house a face-lift it’s important to find the right remodeling contractor. Choosing the right remodeling jobs is important, and your remodeling contractor should be able to help you with the jobs you should do to maximize the value of your home. Financing your Delray Beach remodeling project may also take careful consideration. If you need to borrow money for a major project, you should be aware that there are a number of ways to get the money you need. You always want to shop for remodeling loans with the lowest interest rates, make certain your payments are tax deductible and most importantly don’t put yourself in the situation of over borrowing and possibly losing your home.

If you’re planning on undertaking your own remodeling project, it’s important to have a plan and determine your budget to see if your plan is financially feasible. You’ll have to decide if you need a loan and what type of loan will be best for you. You’ll need to talk to your remodeling professional and make certain you can get all the necessary permits. Any remodeling project can be a stressful time but if you take your time, do a little research beforehand and work with your remodeling contractor, you can make any home improvement job a smooth process.

Buy fresh produce at the GreenMarket

Your Solara at Wellington kitchen would be so much better with some fresh produce. The West Palm Beach GreenMarket fills the need.

Each Saturday vendors offer a variety of farm fresh fruits and vegetables, tropical and native plants, fresh-cut flowers and artisan foods from 8 a.m. – 1 p.m. at the Waterfront Commons in Downtown West Palm Beach.

This market offers a lot more than that. Featured booths frequently include bakery selections, eggs and omelets, coffee, tea, guacamole, salsa, kettle corn, gourmet olive oil, orchids, flowers, fruits, vegetables and even pet treats.

Enjoy the sights and sounds of the new Waterfront while you eat breakfast or lunch. The West Palm Beach GreenMarket is dog-friendly and offers free parking in the Banyan Street Garage until 2 p.m.

A trip to the GreenMarket takes about 30 minutes from Solara at Wellington. That is a drive well spent if you’re looking to make your kitchen come to life.

Get prepared for your trip with reusable grocery bags, walking shoes and a recipe that needs fresh ingredients.
