Out & About, Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, BruLe, Bistro, Wine House, Lunch, Pineapple Grove, Delray Beach, Palm Beach County

I almost forgot to tell you about my casual lunch at BruLe, which is a bistro and a wine house in the Pineapple Grove Art District of Delray Beach.

It was in July and Rosalyn and I had just returned from the Norton Museum in West Palm Beach, where an Exhibit called Out of This World: Extraordinary Costumes from Film and Television was underway until 9/11/11.  It was great.

The Norton Museum of Art is located at 1451 S. Olive Ave., West Palm Beach, FL 33401.  Tel. 561-832-5196.  Website?  www.norton.org.

Another Exhibit was From A to Z: 26 Great Photographs from the Norton Collection is still going on until October 16th.  That was great too.

Also, until October 9th is Striking Impressisons:  European Prints from the Museum Collection.

And, The Art of War in East Asia will be on exhibit until November 13th.

It was hot and we were hungry.  I had not had lunch at BruLe, so, why not?  The address is 200 NE 2nd Ave. Right at City Walk in Delray.  The tel. is 561- 274-2046.  Website?  www.brulebistro.com.

In the above mentioned website you will be able to check their menus.  They open for lunch and dinner. 

They had a great selection of wines being that it is also a wine house.

We ordered 2 salads.  Rosalyn ordered the Arugula Salad with candied pecans, green apple, bleu cheese and red onion and a house vinaigrette.

I ordered their Market Salad which had baby greens, assorted veggies and a white balsamic vinaigrette.  Then, to finish it off I topped it with grilled chicken.

Both salads were delicious on such a hot day.

I think BruLe has a very diverse menu that will agree with most of its customers.  Can’t wait to have dinner next time.

Order at the counter, take a seat and they will bring your order to your table.
