I would think arriving around 4:00PM and getting settled, looking around, what would you suggest for dinner?

It's too soon to go traveling and by 5PM wouldn't most good places be booked?

Leaving in hours, early AM!

It's the low season so plenty of places in the area near the Marriott will take you as a walk-in. What type of food are you looking for? Any particular places you're looking at?

Nothing special, that's for Ruth Chris and the Passions.

There should be alot of places along the main strip of hotels on Palm Beach - alot of casual place and nice places, too. Shoot, I was even a walk-in at White this past Sept. - no problem getting a table.

Papillon is also very good and walkable.

Some good casual places are Cafe Rembrandt, Salt & Pepper...

Le Bistro and Taste of Belgium are closer to you. They're in the new malls across the street from the Holiday Inn. White is located there, too.

If you want a beach bar/casual food atmosphere the Bugaloe pier bar by the Radisson is good. Also Moomba's is right next door to the Marriott Surf Club - great beach bar and drinks but the food is only so-so.

The beach bars sound real good. The sunset with a rum drink and my honey! What more could I possibly want!
