Alright faithful followers, and guests at Hilton Singer Island Oceanfront Resort, fret not – got another hot spot for you that’s said to be a must-see and gotta stop in Palm Beach. Like to dine under the stars, or with the stars? Read on.

Ta-boo American Bistro & Bar boasts a track record of history as rich as its past patrons. Built in 1941 by Ted Stone only a short while before the United States’ entering World War II, 14 years passed before Jim Peterson took over in 1955. Another 20 years passed before the booming business changed hands and was set for famous friends when it reopened in October of 1990 by the hands of Franklyn deMarco and Nancy Simmons.

Wealthy and well-known patrons are no strangers to the bistro boasting visitors such as Frank Sinatra, John F. Kennedy and others. Crowned for “understated elegance and influential gatherings” by local publications’ praise and tabloid’s mention, the “best night spot in the country to drink, laugh, and meet women” boasts a trio of differing menus tailored to its visitor’s tastes, deep pockets or not.

Moderately priced lunch items offer elaborate salads and grilled selections but for the night owls in to beat the bite of hunger before visiting the bar can select from an impressive spread of prime cut steaks, veal and exquisite choices even without meat! Check out the selection and tour the photo gallery at their Web site.

A most impressive, and extensive wine list flaunts finer selections from France, Italy, New Zealand, Australia, Argentina and California all with reserve lists available. Probably the most fabulous, and my favorite feature of this concentration of wealth and wonder, is the intimate bar and lavish décor all beneath a roll-away roof to literally put stars in the eyes of visitors, stars themselves or not.

So goes the saying that that this Palm Beach Bistro & Bar is “a must” on travelers lists and “if you weren’t seen at Ta-boo, you weren’t seen in town.”
