 Just when you think some things will never change, they do. Last March, Burger King added a new concept to its Orlando Florida location with the installation of a Whopper Bar. The Bar offered a specialized burger menu with over 20 available toppings to choose from. This year, a first for the nation, a South Beach Florida new opening will feature the new Whopper Bar and beer!
During limited hours, the location will feature beer sales which up to now has only been featured outside of the U.S. in locations in Singapore, Venezuela and Germany.
The chain reports that the new concept is not readily available but determines feasibility based on each location. In the future, you may be able to find more of the unique Burger King's in large cities, airports and sporting venues. What's next? Tequila at Taco Bell?

 Dee is Back and better than ever for 2010
Dee on the Prowl
by Dara Singmaster
I’m baaaaaaaaaack! And I’ve been a busy girl so be prepared to take notes.
It is not often that I “do” lunch…especially since I no longer live within walking distance of the downtown area…so I was thrilled when Anastasia suggested we Wilmington Red Sox Nation gals lunch at the newly opened The Harp on South 3rd St. (close to Greenfield Lake).

 Let's hear from you! Check out all new reviews
Leave a review for us about a recent experience at one of our local restaurants. Visit a restaurant page today, we want to hear all about it. Which restaurant is this?
The best kept secret in Wilmington. [This]
has fast become our favorite restaurant. The extensive menu and the
unique specials, great service, cozy relaxed atmosphere keeps us coming
back. We have never been disappointed. If you want to know where the
locals go. this is it. The appetizers are especially good. The mini
crabcakes with Thai sauce is my personal favorite. My wife loves the
zucchini fries. Make sure you try their soups especially the lobster
bisque. Their New Orleans style shrimp and grits is the best I have
ever had. Their fresh catch Louisiana pan-fried puppy drum I had
recently was great. Tuesday is rib night, I recommend Thai style. You
can also get just about anything you want steamed. The menu prices
are very reasonable.

 Having something different on the menu boosts Nicola's Italian restaurant draw as flocks of people take advantage of their special pasta tasting events. In 2009, Nicola's introduced their homemade pasta tasting evenings in which Chef Nick Pittari chooses from an extensive list of homemade pasta for a fixed price dinner. What is more like having five entrees and a dessert, Nicola's keeps the pasta dishes flowing as the crowd is treated to a wide variety of sauces, specialty dishes and introductions by Chef Pittari.
The pasta tastings are offered throughout the year and by special group request. According to Chrissie Pittari, the pasta tastings have a huge response and coupled with their "Big Night" a family style dining event, the restaurant has enjoyed large crowds and a unique offering. "We love to share the experience of the family style dining events, unless people have grown up with this type of dining, it is an unusual experience and one where there is opportunity to mix and mingle with others as well as taste a large variety of our food." States Pittari. For more information on special dining events or to request a group pasta tasting, contact Nicola's at 910-798-2208.
