The Birthday Girls!
If you look at this picture and the young lady in it you see my 90 year old mom at her birthday party. You need a special place to host the birthday girls of April (mom, sister, and daughter). We picked a great Manatee County restaurant; the Beach Bistro. Feasting on Tomato soup with blue cheese and vodka, Grouper Cheeks, and a fine Pinot Grigio all while watching a beautiful sunset over the Gulf of Mexico; it doesn’t get any better than that.

Meet Sean Murphy

A native of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Sean graduated from Dalhousie Law School, the “Harvard of the North.” Avoiding a career in law and Canadian winters, he followed his passion for food to New Orleans and learned the restaurant trade under the tutelage of industry renowned Archie Casbarian at the world-famous Arnaud’s. There, he was introduced to Dr. Murf Klauber of the Colony Beach and Tennis Resort, where he worked before opening the Beach Bistro.
