Great beach day yesterday. Spent the day at home base then a lovely dinner at Ocean 82 in Grand Case to celebrate our friends birthday. I made reservations online using Open Table. Quick and easy using them for this night as well as Bamboo House. In the special request box of the form I typed we were celebrating a birthday. When we arrived they wished him a Happy Birthday and at the end of the meal brought over a dessert platter with a sparkler and sang happy birthday to him.

Very good service and food was delicious. French onion soup, salad for two of us for starters followed by lamb shank with scalloped potatoes for David. Me and Mike got the salted filet mignon with Béarnaise sauce and birthday boy had chicken fettuccine. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal, cocktails and the Grand Marnier soufflé. That was delicious.

They reimburse you for the $5 parking fee which is located only a few buildings before the restaurant. WE almost never find street parking nor at the free lot farther up and last night was no exception. When departing I showed the hostess the parking stub and she handed me $5.
