Fine
Dining in Broward County
By
Nicholas Jurkowski
Broward County encompasses Ft.
Lauderdale and Hollywood, and as such, there are many
fine destinations to explore ranging from nightclubs,
like Automatic Slim’s, to more academic fare, like the
Museum of Discovery and Science. While you wouldn’t
necessarily think that these two locales would cater to
the same audience, you’d be surprised; many nightclub
aficionados are also science buffs, with a pocket
protector in one shirt pocket and a glow stick in the
other.
One of the most interesting, enjoyable, and historic
locations in Broward County is a little restaurant
called Cap’s Place, the oldest restaurant in Ft.
Lauderdale.
Picture this: You and your spouse are celebrating your
one year anniversary. Wanting to do something special,
you decide to take a limousine to dinner at Cap’s Place.
The limo from Millenium picks you up, and you enjoy a
relaxing, luxurious ride to the Cap’s dock. Your egress
takes you onto the skiff that will take you to the
restaurant. The calm, romantic boat-ride helps to whet
your anticipation of the meal to come. You enjoy an
excellent bottle of pinot noire with your lobster and
snapper. As the evening turns into night, you take the
skiff back to your waiting limousine – you can imagine
where things go from there.
Located off Lighthouse Point in South Florida, Cap’s
Place has a 78 year history, and has been known for
fresh seafood and hearts of palm salad for years. The
fact that it is located on an island (accessible only by
Cap’s motor launch) is even more famous than the food –
every diner takes a short boat ride to the island
restaurant. It started as a 1920's casino and speakeasy,
and has been on the National Register for Historic
Places since 1990. Cap’s guests have included the likes
of Winston Churchill, the Rockefellers, Al Capone,
George Harrison, Errol Flynn, and Joe Namath (not a bad
crowd to share restaurant preference with), and Cap's
has won numerous dining awards. Known far and wide for
their cobia, snapper, lobster, stone crab, and pompano
(as well as freshly shucked clams and oysters), Cap’s
Place is a seafood lover’s dream – though they offer
fantastic steaks and chops as well.
Check out the most unique dining experience in South
Florida and consider a Millenium Limo to take you most
of the way. Cap’s Place is the place for historic dining
and delicious seafood (not to be confused with delicious
dining and historic seafood…. no one likes a stale
lobster).
