Eileen and I were prowling around Cookman Avenue today. It seems as if every time we go there, we make new discoveries. Bonney Read is a sea-food restaurant with “classic chowder house” cooking.
I was snapping a few photos through the open doors when a waiter popped up and invited us to get a few shots inside. It seemed like a friendly and inviting establishment, and we love seafood, so Blogfinger will return for a restaurant review. You can check the menu on-line.

The two wait staff guys below were desperate to pose for a picture. They were hams in a sea food eatery. I do have another shot without the junior high shenanigans, but after a second review by Eileen, we decided that this pose was probably just right.

FROM THE DISNEY FILM “RATATOUILLE,”
Dear Paul, We have you to thank for a wonderful meal at Bonny Read last night. We had guests from Upstate New York, and my wife and I were debating where to take them for dinner. Your post made up our minds. The staff was excited when I showed them your blog, and brought it up on their computer for the staff’s enjoyment. You have new fans in AP. The only downside was the noise level, making conversation difficult. Thanks for all your good work.
Donald and Phyllis Sutherland Webb Ave, OG
