In my travels I have eaten at many a restaurant and been given many a good treat to eat, and also man a stomach ache to defeat.  One place while I was in West palm Beach Florida was an Italian restaurant that reminded me of my uncle Vin and his restaurant back when I was a boy.  The Maison Carlos is a wonderful restaurant with a great atmosphere, it was just like Vin’s, except it was much bigger and of course, it is still around.  Vin’s shut down when he died back when I was still in grade school, and it wasn’t anywhere fancy like Palm Beach.  When I entered I was immediately taken off guard by how nice the place looks, and I was also very happy that the staff was so nice to me.  They had French Cuisine there along with the Italian favorites, it was just a great treat to finally eat somewhere I felt at home.

Nostalgia aside, the food was very good, and their wine selection was excellent.  They had some very nice aged red wines that tasted wonderful, and the meal, that was probably the best part about it.  I had a wonderful Caesar Salad and the Spaghetti with crab meat – absolutely great.  Before I was done though I had to try one more thing – and that was the veal.  That was probably the best and most well remembered meal of my entire life, like one of those epic movies you go to see and you never get it outta your head – now every other restaurant i go to I expect to live up to this standard, and most of them don’t.  When you’re in Palm Beach you have to stop by Maison Carlos and try the food, or else you will regret it for the rest of your life.
