I was told that Bud & Alleys lease is not renewing in 2007. Anyone know anything about that being fact or fiction?

Shades of the old...Shades of the New, will be the theme in Seaside at the old Shades location.

The Great Southern Cafe will be serving southern food from the south. All seafood will be fresh, and all vegetables will be grown by farmers from the Gulf area. You will be able to eat fine southern cuisine indoors and down-home outdoors.

The outdoor deck will have a bar... And an oyster bar for a very casual off-the-beach eating and drinking experience. Flip flops, shorts and sand will be be welcome. The indoor rooms will have table colthes and candle light, but they will still be up-scale Casual. You can have fun in any mood.

The new owners are experienced chefs from the south.

Don't worry. You aren't losing the old. You're gaining the New.

:welcome: I just e-mailed the outside oyster bar info to the 2 gals in our June group that like to leave the Grayton Beach every day at lunch, bike up to Seaside in their bathing suits, eat oysters and drink a margerita for lunch, then bike back to us at the beach. They used to do this at Hurricanes and were upset about the closing. It looks like y'all have saved them!

lotsofun, word on the street is that you guys are building a new deck in addition to the existing deck. I think that is awesome. Last night while dining at Amore, Chickpea and I were both saying how much we loved outdoor dining.

In the past, I ate at Shades probably once every 10-14 days. I didn't go for great food. The food was average, but I went for the casual atmosphere and decent prices. If you add great food to the mix, you will do well. The white table cloths scare me a bit, so I will stick to the deck, or the bar if you still have one.

Now hurry up and open!
