My Quest

This blog is the tale of my quest for home-made, low-salt, traditional, rustic and innovative cuisine. Special attention is given to restaurants and food suppliers in special locations, such as locally owned farms, farmer's markets, walkable people places, water view properties and to properties of notable architectural merit. Restaurants and inns are considered in light of sustainability efforts as well, and noted with a green apple for special efforts to conserve and sustain.

Cafe Zelda

www.cafezelda.com
Newport Rhode Island

This enchanting eatery boasts itself as the best cafe between Key West and Bar Harbor. The nautical decor is enchanting. I could imagine the rear dining space as part of a ship, with its dark wainscot and deep blue striped wall covering, bench seat and wonderful framed ship picures.

But the food is my favorite part of the experience and the seafood bouillebaise will pull my back on every return to Newport. A generous assortment of seafood and fresh tuna adorned be a succulent broth rich in herbs and spices. For appetizers, we were elated to find the rare tuna appetizer served with a tempurah crust and delicous sauce.

A sure return for us...
