Gaido's! Gaido's! Gaido's!

We ate there Friday night and then again on Saturday ( late lunch/early dinner)

The best red snapper ever.

I concur, Wolfie!

That is our favorite eating spot in Galveston!!!

Also for those not in the know - Casey's is next door to Gaidos and is more casual, less expensive and yummy too. Same owners but the preparation is simpler -more fried seafood.

I did not know that, Wolfie! Thanks for the tip!

Thanks Wolfie, there are a bunch of us looking for places to eat in October

Another great place right off the Strand - Paradise Bakery for breakfast. We had a free breakfast this time at Hotel Galvez but when we stayed at Harbor House we walked to Paradise both mornings. Great breakfast, great price and a lovely small town bakery atmosphere.

I think it was called Paradise!!

Balinese Room is a great - let's meet and have a few drinks place. Beautiful old place that has been restored - on the Seawall across from Galvez. Live music so it's a great spot for the night before.

Are you going to come on the cruise with us, Wolfie?

wolfgang · 02-21-2006, 06:35 PM

October may hard for us - we generally go late november. plus with an april cruise we're notsure we'll have enough vacation days left for another one in 06 although we are planning on it.

oh - when I mentioned Balinese I meant it's "Let's meet place" not Hey let's meet there place. Although ---- if it happened, that would be the place to go!
