David Wong’s Pan Asian & Sushi
by BloggerInParadise on Feb.16, 2011, under Meanderings
We went to one of our favorite restaurants for Valentine’s – David Wong’s Pan Asian & Sushi in Bonita. When we got there we found out that Sushi Thai now owned the place and David had gone to Las Vegas. We worried that the food would change. It is a unique menu with a lot of very tasty items. After having eaten our meal, we found our fears were unneeded. The food was great. Seems that they’ve put in a full sushi bar which is to open this Thursday. They said the original menu would continue and that Sushi Thai was going to add some of their own items. Sound great. Sushi Thai is a good sushi restaurant and combining the two should be a real positive. If you have the inclination, go eat there. You won’t be disappointed.

Boating on Estero Bay
by BloggerInParadise on Feb.10, 2011, under Meanderings
It’s been awhile, but finally I got around to taking another meander. This time a friend and I went boating on Estero Bay. This is an area off the coast of Bonita Springs that is bordered by a number of our coastal islands. They are close together and form a bay with access to the Gulf through several “passes” – some of which you can’t use at low tide.
We started off at a pier near Barefoot Beach. The video below starts off and has a view of some of the boats and some of the houses on the waterway. Then, when we got going we saw a dolphin having lunch courtesy of some bait fish. We ended up at the entrance near New Pass and Dog Beach. Dog Beach is where you can take your dogs and let them run loose. It was a beautiful day – just under 80 degrees. Not bad for early February. A nice day spent relaxing. You can rent boats to do this if you don’t own or have access to one. Give it a try when you’re down here.
You may want to turn the sound down. Still learning about how to video with my Droid and there is a bit of wind noise.
