Visiting Del Boca Vista

Hollie and I enjoyed visiting the Morikami Museum in the western Boca Raton area. Founded on land that was originally a small Japanese colony 100 years ago, has a nice small museum and beautiful extensive gardens around an artificial lake. The restaurant cafe was said to be rated in the top 5 museum restaurants in the USA-- very good Japanese food with an absolutely lovely view of the lake and landscaping.

My parents hosted us for some meals at their condo. My dad is justly proud of his made-from-scratch French onion soup. However the chips we munched on for an appitizer were served with the blandest salsa we've ever tasted-- like watered down catsup. South Florida is neither New Orleans nor Texas. But it has charms and pleasures in limited dosages. Nice beach!
