Congratulations Stephane,Catherine, George-Emry the Joshua III?
Wishing you all a peaceful journey through life
Congratulations Stephane,Catherine, George-Emry the Joshua III?
Wishing you all a peaceful journey through life
Thanks Guys!
Gordocutter, my hand is almost all healed now & can move freely... Boat building will resume slowly toward the end of the week, the mom still need help as the baby...
Can someone explain me why we are the only specie that have such a terrible sound when crying!
Trying to get your attention. Needs help for most activities.
Dream on, Stephane; but ENJOY!! Change happens fast and the baby has lots to teach you.
Ah! Congratulations and welcome! Great news, glad all are well! Enjoy!!
Ahh, crying. This is 24 hour per day activity for a few months, then tapers off to about 20 hours a day. By the time he's three, it'll only be like 8 or 10 crying instances per day. After age 7 it gets real quiet, relatively speaking.
That's where my child-rearing experience stops, though my friends with older kids have said that crying returns in full force from age 12 through age 25... we'll see.
There are two kinds of boaters: those who have run aground, and those who lie about it.
Congratulations Stephane and family! I'm glad that things went well in the end despite the scary moments. Do we get a picture of the wee pirate?
Peaceful and Family, glad to hear everybody is OK, I am sure this drama was not what you were hoping for, but I sure am glad it worked out well in the end.
Now I don't mean to be pushy, but it has been said by others before me, 'no pictures, It didn't happen' and while I'm sure it certainly did happen, and you and the bride have the sleep deprivation to prove it, send out a snapshot anyway of this little 'Pirate', as a nice change of pace for us 'honorary uncles', from the broken boats and such...
Wishing Momma and son a rapid recovery and all of you restful sleep sometime this year... Cheers, Steve/BT
Glad to hear all is well after so much drama. Congratulations on the new family member, what a triumph!
Hey Stephane, Congratulations!!!
I'm glad it all turned out OK for everyone. It can be such stressful time when there are problems. People forget just what is involved in a birth even these days with all the medical technology.
A wonderful time ahead and you guys will never regret it all.
Bonjour Stephane,
I am very happy for you and Catherine. My best wishes for Catherine's recovery and George-Emry's health. I know you will need all your strength to see to the well-being of your family for now. Thanks for keeping us informed.
Congratulations Captain and God bless,
Thats great! Congratulations to all of you and let the adventure begin!
Thanks guys for the nice comment! We discover that our experience of night shift sailing begin to pay off
Here a little video of last night... Sleeping sound when the belly is full!
Ok next time I will put a chisel in his hand to keep it boat related
But as BT said... Here you need a picture to prove it :P
What a cutey! Cheers!! He'll be talking enough soon!

Peaceful, Glad to see the whole crew doing well, it may be early, but I think I see some sailor in that good looking real little one, knows to catch a nap when he is off watch... Time will tell the rest! Cheers, BT
Stephane and Catherene and a brand new George-Emry I am very glad that it has all worked out well in the end.I wish Catherene a speedy recovery.
Looking forward to seeing George-Emry taking his first sail.
Where have we been ? Where are we going ? Why are we here ?
Scary starts guarantees a storybook ending.
Sailing with my children has been some of the best times I can recall. My youngest just turned 17 and has been living aboard since she was 8. By the time she was eleven we would read to each other on long passages becuase we did not have autopilot so some had to stay at the wheel all the time. After we stopped in at Montaray Bay, she read Canery Row to me while I steered the boat. She is an awesome sailor, just imagine what little George-Emry will be like in nine years. Capt. Z.
Stephane, I've just received the e-version of the latest WB magazine. There's a lovely letter to the editor about your photo on the cover of the last WB. I'm sure your new mum will enjoy reading it, as will you! Hope all's going well for you all!
Thanks Rick for telling me!
The editor sent me this letter when they received it last month, was nice to read for sure...
Seeing all the mystery this picture give to him, I will sure not tell what was happening there now
BTW, boat building resumed full time since a few days... A few more planks ready to be in place.
Show off!!
Steaming ahead!!! I can just imagine snippets from a typical Tremblay household day:
3.00pm "hmm, something smells like dirty nappies............I'm just off to do some planking darling!!!"
6.00pm "Honey could you bath the baby??"......."I'd love to darling but I've just put a plank in the steamer....."
1.00am "Honey, the babies crying, it's your turn"....."No worries darling, you go back to sleep.....and I'm awake now so I may as well do a bit of planking......oh, how convenient, the sound of drilling and riveting has such a calming effect, I'll bring him out here more often"

Thanks, Greg you are quite close!
But my favourite is: I would darling but I still have some red lead on my hand and you know how its hard to wash it off. I sure won't like to contaminate our baby!
Baby keep Stephane awake? No I dont think he ever sleeps anyway.
Great work well done
Stephane, is George ruling the roost and the poor boat coming last?
It will pass in about 20 years!
C'mon, we need more inspiration. I'm dying to see how it looks now.
Now that Stephane has a baby, he's moved to the suburbs and bought a brick veneer house. He's swapping the Gartside for a plastic family canoe.
Hey guys... Come on give more theory
I am actually far from everthing, the baby and the boat! I am at the big city of Montréal... Earning some money to lower the loan a bit :P
I knew it! The beginning of the end .... At least make sure that the canoe has a pretty sheer!
Hello All,
it's been a while without news a lot of things happen during those months. I won't talk about it as a lot of it is personal which I do not want to spread over Internet.
Let's just say that the project is now for sales. The boat, wood, equipment (Anchors, solar panel, stoves, etc...) are all for sale for those interested please contact me for more detail.
Sorry to hear this Stephane, hope all goes well for you and family.

Dear Stephane,
I am very sorry to hear about this reversal of fortune. Sometimes it seems life conspires against us. You have given us so much by sharing your lifes endeavour, and for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Take comfort in knowing you have done a great thing building a work of art and tradition.
I wish you all the best in whatever direction life takes you and your loved ones.
I had to put my plans for myself and my boats on the shelf this past May after falling from a ladder and fracturing my heel bone. I have discovered the truth in the old saying, that 'when one door closes, another opens'. I am still in a cast after nearly four months, but my eyes have been opened by the kindnesses friends, family and total strangers have expressed towards me.
I hope someday to meet you, face to face, and shake your hand in appreciation of your noble efforts.
Good Luck friend
Very sorry to hear that, take care and good luck!
I too am sorry to hear of this development. I've enjoyed watching your build, and I hope you can find someone to finish her in the high quality with which you've started. I hope all works out for the best for you.
Really sorry to hear this Stephane.
Best of luck with the next stage of your life.
My heart just sank, but I'm sure yours must be broken Stephane!
Is there nothing that will allow you to complete your ship?

Hi Stephane, very sorry to hear this. Of course I really hope things work out for you and only you and yours can know what's best to do. But, if it's any use at all, my tip would be to see if you can just leave things as they are for a little while - sometimes a bit of time can be helpful in making the right decisions.
Thank you for letting us join you on this beautiful adventure. I know we will eagerly follow your future ones.

Very sorry to hear that friend. That must have been a very difficult decision. Your build helped a lot to inspire me in mine.
Best of luck with whatever is next.
Was thinking about you recently and just checked your blog yesterday to see what was up. Now you make this post. Ah, me.
Change is life's only constant.
Bon chance, mon ami.
There are two kinds of boaters: those who have run aground, and those who lie about it.
We all know you've considered this deeply at this point. Nobody could invest the time and love into a project like that to the extent you have and then walk away from it. I hope whatever has happened to force you to this turns out for the best and that one day we can watch you lay another keel and finish her. Cheers,

Stephane I cannot express how sad I am in knowing about the end of this beautiful journey that you've been so kind in sharing with us. For the time that your story lasted, I could see my dream turning into reality in another person's life, like a magic mirror and for that I'm grateful to you. The word that come into mind is inspiration.
I realy hope everything turn right for you again and wish all the best for you and your family.
All the best

text: Cindy Sherman March 17–June 9, 2013 The Dallas Museum of Art will present the exhibition Cindy Sherman, a retrospective survey tracing the groundbreaking artist's career from the mid-1970s to the present. The touring exhibition, organized by the Museum of Modern Art, New York, brings together some 160 key photographs from a variety of the artist's acclaimed bodies of work, for which she created myriad constructed characters and tableaus. The first comprehensive museum survey of Sherman's career in the United States since 1997, the exhibition draws widely from public and private collections, including the DMA. Sherman is widely recognized as one of the most important contemporary artists of the last forty years, and is arguably the most influential artist working exclusively with photography. Today her work is the unchallenged cornerstone of postmodern photography. Throughout her career, Sherman has presented a sustained, eloquent, and provocative exploration of the construction of contemporary identity and the nature of representation, drawn from the unlimited supply of images from movies, TV, magazines, the Internet, and art history. Working as her own model for more than thirty years, she has generated a range of guises and personas that are by turns amusing and disturbing, distasteful and affecting. To create her photographs, she works unassisted in her studio and assumes multiple roles as photographer, model, art director, make-up artist, hairdresser, stylist, and wardrobe mistress. Through her vision and skillful masquerades, Sherman has created an astonishing and continually intriguing variety of characters that resonate deeply within our visual culture. The exhibition showcases Sherman's greatest achievements to date through the extraordinary range and evolution of her work, from her early experiments as a student in Buffalo in the 1970s to her recent large-scale photographic murals. The exhibition focuses on some of the dominant themes prevalent throughout Sherman's work, such as artifice and fiction, cinema and performance, horror and the grotesque, myth and fairy tale, and gender and class identity. A selection of ambitious and celebrated works will be highlighted, including works from major series such as fairy tales/mythology (1985), history portraits (1988–90), sex pictures (1992), headshots (2000), clowns (2002–04), fashion (1983–84, 1993–94, 2007–08), and society portraits (2008). In addition, the exhibition includes a site-specific photographic mural produced in 2011–12, on view for the first time in the United States. The exhibition is organized by The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Additional support is provided by the Gay and Lesbian Fund for Dallas, the Contemporary Art Initiative, and TWO X TWO for AIDS and Art. Air transportation provided by American Airlines. Valet for the exhibition reception is provided by A fully illustrated publication accompanies the exhibition and includes an interview with the artist conducted by filmmaker and artist John Waters. A film program drawn from MoMA's vast cinematic holdings and selected by Sherman also accompanies the exhibition. The exhibition is organized by Eva Respini, Associate Curator, Department of Photography, The Museum of Modern Art. The curator of the Dallas presentation is Gabriel Ritter, The Nancy and Tim Hanley Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art. Cindy Sherman requires a special exhibition ticket. Tickets are $16 for adults with discounts for students, military personnel, and seniors; DMA Partners and children 11 and under are free. To purchase your ticket online, visit the DMA ticketing page.

Renowned for an action-packed pyrotechnic-fuelled explosion of a show, Limehouse Lizzy continue to keep the spirit of Celtic rock icon Philip Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy alive, well and dominating stages worldwide.
Attention to detail, playful audience interaction and that all important X-factor that leaves you with the feeling of witnessing the real thing have led to their performance being described as "beyond tribute", by both audience and critics alike.
Following the enormous success of their ˜Live & Dangerous" & "Dedication" tours, the band embarked upon their "Into the Limelight" 2008 tour to tie in with their appearance on an episode of BBC2's 'Arena' documentary series of the same name. The tour travelled as far as a headline slot at the Rhodes Rock festival in Greece, and the Virgin Atlantic Music festival in Barbados. The band appeared alongside diverse world music acts, and played a Thin Lizzy set representing the Celtic rock genre.
Their latest tour continues to explore and celebrate the artistic and musical legacy of the hard living, hard-rocking, yet at times surprisingly tender and romantic artist that was Philip Lynott.
Expect more of the Celtic influenced tracks like "Whisky in the Jar" and "Black Rose", amongst the usual razzmatazz and classic tracks "The Boys are Back in Town", "Sarah" and many others we've come to expect from one of the most highly rated acts on the circuit.
"Limehouse Lizzy's Wayne Ellis, an uncanny ringer for Phil Lynott…" - The Guardian
"Entertainment for more than a decade…fantastic live music" - Arena BBC2
"If you're sceptical about tribute acts, you won't be after seeing Limehouse Lizzy" - Radio Times

Does sitting on the beach all day bore you? Are you sick of tour guides?
See also: How to find the right volunteer vacation.
How about a vacation that puts you to work, while exposing you to some of the world's most exotic places and eye-opening people? These kinds of immersion vacations aren't just for the recent college grad. In fact, half of all travelers with Global Volunteers, one of the largest volunteer tourism groups, are over age 50. The following volunteers said, "Yes, sign me up!"
Warren Stortroen, Earthwatch volunteer
It was his fourth trip to Mexico as an Earthwatch Institute volunteer, and so as his fellow travelers got a crash course in paleontology, Warren Stortroen embraced his inner Indiana Jones and headed out on his own expedition.
Near a dry riverbed he found small pieces of armor plating called scutes. "I was pretty sure they were from a prehistoric animal," says Stortroen. The research scientist leading the Earthwatch Mexican Megafauna expedition agreed: Stortroen had discovered a glyptodon, an ancestor of the armadillo, which in its day stood about 4 feet tall and was as big as a small car.
This was five years ago, when Stortroen was 74 years old and already an Earthwatch addict. In 15 years, he has been on 66 expeditions helping scientists conduct research involving paleontology, archaeology, endangered species, climate change and ocean health. He has studied dolphins in Vonitsa, Greece; worked shoulder-to-shoulder with archaeologists in Turks and Caicos Islands and helped save the endangered Australian bilby in Australia's Red Desert. He recently returned from the Amazon River and soon will be leaving to study wildlife and wine in Bordeaux.
"I used to do science museum tours where we went to interesting areas, but people were always just showing you things and telling you about them," says Stortroen. "Once I got involved with Earthwatch, I no longer just wanted to look at things. I wanted to do them."
Jay and Joyce Rush, Habitat for Humanity
They call it "Infectious Habititis," and it's a condition Jay and Joyce Rush developed almost 10 years ago. Jay Rush took an early retirement, and the couple sold their York, Pa., house, moved into their RV and hit the road helping to build homes for people in need.

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback via our website last week regarding the three logo choices for Seminole State College. By the Board Meeting on November 16th, we will have a final recommendation for our Trustees to consider. Once a design is approved, we anticipate having the final artwork for the new logo by the end of November, with guidelines issued at that time for printing new business cards, stationery, name tags, forms, etc. Remember, we will be transitioning into use of the new logo, when existing supplies and materials bearing the SCC name / logo are depleted. If you run into an unusual circumstance or demand before the new logo is available, please look to your division leader or VP for direction.

Lavendou Bistro
Online Reservations
Lavendou is wonderful and is our favorite place to dine in the Dallas area. There are so many choices and the food is cooked perfectly each time. Thanks to Pascal and his great staff for another exceptional dining experience.
We went to Lavendou the first time during this year's Dallas Morning News Restaurant Week and liked it enough that we returned to celebrate our anniversary with an opportunity to make a wider menu selection. The restaurant was full by the time we were into the entree, but the service was prompt and efficient (but unhurried). Would recommend everything we had: Escargots and Couquille St Jacques (done differently) for Appetizers, Tournedos and Duck for entrees and a Souffle Grand Marnier to top it off.
Nice food - lovely room- professional waitstaff. Attentive owner.
They had a singer the evening we dined on a Wednesday night. She was awesome and would like to know when she will be there again. Food is always consistent and I love the ambiance. Warm and cozy atmosphere.
This is a great place where you get the most for your dollar.
As always, the staff was warm and inviting. The food was excellent, and the service superb. My wife and I have this as our favorite place to dine!
We had such a lovely time at Lavendou for our 35th anniversary celebration. The ambiance set the right romantic tones, the food was exquisite and the service was par excellance! Lavendou has created such a wonderful balance of fine dining without pretension. We cannot wait to go back again.
Pascal really has a well run establishment serving some of the best French style food in the metroplex. His staff is always very friendly, attentive and helpful on the French wines. This is one of favorite in Dallas.
This is my favorite restaurant and it has been since inception approx 20 years ago .Lavendou Bistro ranks as the finest country French restaurant in the Metroplex when you compare the outstanding food, a full range of wine selection, great attentive table service and great ambiance. The French Room can learn from them. There is no doubt this establishment has proven year after year the consistency of what a great French restaurant is all about. Second to none - Perfection at its finest!!
It's menu is more French than the French Room and not nearly as expensive or formal. On Saturday, it's packed and incredibly noisy. The good was great. The service was just okay but it was really busy. You might try dining outside as the noise dissipates or go on a weekday. The menu includes a pre fixe menu as well as additional specials. Or try something from the standard menu. Try the escargot or the foie gras, the veal medallions or duck entrees...try something French. I would go again. Difficult to find a good French restaurant in greater Dallas and this one fits the bill.
Every thing from food to service to soundings was great. Food the best love the 1664 beer. We dined with friends and not rushed, it just couldn't have been better.
My husband and I always enjoy this French gem. On our last visit, I tried the filet and it was wonderful. I won't even begin to tell you about the pommesfrits. So Good!! Patrick is our favorite wine expert and once again, he choose a great, affordable red wine. As always, the souffles are a perfect ending to a wonderful meal.
We love the relaxed feel. Its the best French restaurant in the area. Two of four had the trout with roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables and agree that it continues to be our favorite.
Fabulous french food and french service. Lavendou is our usual choice for special occasions and when we "need" a delicious french meal. The menu is extensive and varied and the special prix fixe menu specials are not to be missed. Service is always impeccable and the wine list is extensive and priced reasonably. Do not skip the Grande Marnier souffles! The best in town!!
My friend and I went for a birthday celebration. My salmon was excellent. The French really know how to do salmon. I always have it in Paris and it was just as good at Lavendou! The restaurant has a convivial atmosphere and isn't fussy or pretentious. Coat and tie are not required.
We've been to Lavendou's Bistro many times but still enjoy it for special occasions. The room is attractive, the food is always delightful, and the service is excellent. My only quibble is that, when many people are in the room, it can be very noisy.
We ate on the patio and the weather and food were fantastic. Our waiter was great,
French Bistro menu has something for everyone. Everyone at the table had a great meal. Recommended.
This past week end my friends and I choose the "Alsace" Oktoberfest specialty menu. Absolutely delicious. The best Sausages and Ham I've had in the USA. I wanted to lick my plate for every last crumb from the Plum Tart. It was perfect!
Loved the guitar player which went along great with conversation as well as the fabulous food. The wine we had was great an all in all perfect evening!
I really enjoyed the restaurant. It was a comfortable spot with a nice atmosphere and the food was very good. A little expensive however. They could take a dollar off of everything and be in better shape.
My wife and I have been going to Lavendou for many, many years. The restaurant consistently delivers excellent service and exceptional food. I have never been disappointed. A great place for a romantic evening or a special occasion, Lavendou is not stuffy or pretentious. Patrons come dressed in business casual to more formal attire. I consider Lavendou one of the few true gourmet restaurants in Plano.
The mussels were the best we've had for 30 years. The Alsatian décor and cuisine were excellent. The only negative is that the noise level was much too high for a quiet dinner.
We had a great time at your restaurant. Do not know what was better: the food or the service.
Bit pricey. Food/service was excellent. Could hear ourselves talk without sound bouncing off the walls. Delightfull evening seeing our good friends again.
We really liked this restaurant. A bit on the pricey side, so not your typical weekend/weekday restaurant, definitely meant for special occasions. The food was great (get the chocolate souffle!) and the service was good as well. The restaurant itself is in a strip mall, but you definitely don't notice it when inside. It's like you're in a French cocoon! We went on a Tuesday, and it was busy but not completely packed. Overall I would definitely recommend this place!
The goat cheese salad was excellent and the main course of pork tenderloin with roasted potatoes hit the spot. The food was very tasty and the service was efficient and we did not feel rushed. Just a nice evening out with family.
We celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary at Lavendou. Recommend the wild mushroom appetizer and the lamb. Service was fast, friendly and unobtrusive. Our waiter was very knowledgeable about the restaurant's wine selection. Although the restaurant was packed on a Saturday night, nothing seemed rushed and we were able to have a normal conversation without shouting.
Very good food in a very nice atmosphere. Music by Patrick on a Tuesday evening was a great addition to birthday dinner celebration.
The food is always absolutely fantastic, and the serving staff are always so pleasant and attentive. They brought out a special treat and sang to my mother for her birthday, had all of the (delicious!) food there in a timely manner, and we're absolutely courteous and helpful. Forever one of my family's favorite restraunts.
We always look forward to dinner at Lavendou, though I have to say that I've never seen it quite as busy and loud as it was on Saturday night. Nonetheless, the food and service kept up with all the activity, and we came away with pleasant memories and happy stomachs.
Lavendou is tucked away in a strip mall - but its cheery awning, neatly-trimmed hedge, and potted trees, strung with tiny lights, offer a visual barrier from the surroundings. You'll feel like you're entering the heart of Provence. Inside, the restaurant has lovely ambiance. The combination of Provençal florals and stripes with warm wood and ceramics provides the perfect blend of comfort and elegance. This isn't a hushed, ultra-formal French restaurant - the warmer atmosphere lets you feel like you are eating in a fine bistro in the south of France. Lavendou is one large room, but glassed dividers allow for more-intimate couple seating, away from larger parties. And the FOOD! It's exquisite - some of the finest French dining in Texas!
Always a treat with high quality ingrdients and nice service and surroundings.
Always great for a special occasion like a birthday lunch!
This was our first visit and we enjoyed one of our best meals there. The food was excellent, especially the duck pate and the tournedos, and of course the souffle was perfect.
By far my favorite restaurant in Dallas. Very authentic French. Service is impeccable. Specials are always within the season and very good. How they do rich perfect Soufflés, I'll never know. Yes go! You won't be sorry.
Good place for romanic get away. Filet outstanding as well as soufflé. Service very attentive.
Took my wife to Lavendou for our first time. The online reservation process was very convenient. Patrick was our server and he was amazing! He explained the menu and wine list to us very well. He is the best! The food was outstanding. The scallops appetizer was our favorite. The best ever! Very enjoyable atmosphere and we look forward to going back. Daryl
Good food; good service; a nice up-scale place with a very nice atmosphere
My wife and her friend both really enjoyed the lunch special, chicken crepes served with aldente vegetables (carrots, cauliflower, broccoli). My mahi lunch special was also very good, and appreicated that fish was not over cooked. Potato leek soup and cesar salads were also quite good. All washed down with Alexander Valley Charodonnay (2009) - excellent. Service was a tad slow (long delay before entrees arrived) considering that restaurant was relatively uncrowded at lunch on a Saturday.
Excellent food and service! The live music by Patrick on Tuesday nights makes the experience even better! Highly recommend!
I made my first visit last week and had a wonderful experience. The attentive and knowledgeable waiter gave good recomendations for food and wine. I had the beef tournedos with pepper cream sauce and fries. The beef was perfect. The fries, although they came out hot, had sort of an industrial quality to them. Somehow I expected they would be more rustic. My appetizer was french onion soup and was as good as any I've ever had. My wife had the duck and it was excellent. The souffles were a bit of a disappointment. Mine was a little soupy, and had the consistency of meringue. Not bad, but I don't know that I'd order it again.
The service was very slow. Ordered the rib eye. Not sure what I got but it wasn't a rib eye. The plate was ice cold and the steak was cold as well. Wine was great and the desert was excellent. We eat here often and I'm going to write this one off as just one of those things that happens. We will be back.
We frequent Lavendou only 3-4 times a year. Each visit proves to be great occasion. The ambiance and food always draw us back- it's always authentic and good. Our visit this past Saturday night proved no exception. The gambas, sole, and mussels were very good. The souffle was fun. We remain fans! Bon appetit!
Charming neighborhood restaurant with great food. Hard to beat the bisque and the souffles.
We always have an amazing dining experience at Lavendou. It is consistently delicious and always great service.
Beautiful cozy spot that would be a hit anywhere, even in the French country side. Hard choices means return visits to try them all. An excellent dining experience all the way around.
Went there for the first time after several friends highly recommended it. It was perfectly charming . . .so much so that we are returning next week for our 29th Anniversary. Wonderful food, great service and quiet enough to actually carry on a conversation. Looking forward to our next visit and highly recommend.
We celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary here. The food and service were impeccable!
Why have we not gone there before? Everyone recommends it . . .and now we know why and yes, we will now be regulars . . .delicious Dover Sole and the Caprese Salad is the best we have ever had . . .ever! Jerry's Italian heritage makes him think he is an expert . . .and he was blown away by it! Then finishing with the two soufflés made for a perfect meal! And the service was nice but non intrusive . . .Nothing but praise for this neighborhood gem!

Kona Grill - Baltimore
Online Reservations
My boyfriend and I went to Kona during restaurant week for our anniversary. We'd both been before with our families for our graduation dinner, and both times we have been impressed. This visit, we ordered the avocado eggrolls and spicy shrimp for apps, YUM! For drinks we had the pineapple mojito and raspberry crush. Both were great. We both had macadamia crusted chicken for dinner. The portion is pretty hefty! And for dessert, key lime pie for he and spiced apple bread pudding for me. Both were delicious! We sat on the outdoor patio, and the ambience was wonderful. we'd been here before with a group of 7 ordering everything from drinks to apps to sushi to meals to dessert. EVERYTHING was great. And we'll definitely be returning to kona.
Overall, this is a great restaurant. Food service was great but it took a while for us to receive our drinks. Also, it was very loud in there. But the food was excellent.
This place has wonderfully delicious Asian and steak fare. They have delicious mixed drinks (the best and only pineapple honey mojito I've ever had!). Beautifully done atmosphere and the crowd is there any night of the week, so be sure to make a reservation!
We had a group of 7 on a Tuesday night so it was quiet. We made reservations although we did not need them as there was nothing going on in town (no conferences etc). Great appetizers, great meal. Among our group we had the edamame (angry on the side which wasn't too spicey actually), a couple of rolls.....then for dinner, sea bass was out of this world great, a new pork dish, some rolls, everything was great. Matt the bartender gave us some great recommendations. The snickers pie dessert was too die for. Good service, overall good experience. Definitely would go again.
Kona Grill is now in my regular rotation for both personal and business lunches during the week. There is something on the menu for everyone and no one is ever unhappy with their meal. I also recently went their to dinner with my husband when we had occasion to be downtown and dinner was just as consistent. The service is good with a "zone defense" approach; with the special touch of a manager checking in consistently to make sure the food is to our liking and always looking for an opportunity to make sure our experience is without disappointment.
Great spot. Food is outstanding and the staff was fabulous.
Great place for Happy Hour for drinks and sushi I really like this place.
Race weekend changes everything since they are extra busy. Food was fine, service impacted by race crowd.
Four of us enjoyed Kona Grill during the Baltimore Grand Prix weekend. The service was friendly and good. Unfortunately it was so warm inside due to the windows being open to the street during the day, we had to leave early as we found it too uncomfortable. Otherwise we enjoyed our dishes and the friendliness of the staff. They had our reservation ready for us as planned.
Delicious!!! Loved the unique menu of meat n full menu of sushi.
We were a group of 11 people and we had great food and great service. All of us enjoyed our meals. Highly recommend the Caribbean Chicken. Also the Snickers ice cream for dessert. The restaurant was very busy after the Grand Prix weekend but this did not affect the quality of the service or the food. Only one item on the menu was not available.
Had the chicken tacos and they were excellent. My coworker tried the special turkey and brie sandwich and she enjoyed that as well.
Had a working lunch meeting here. Noise level was good enough that we could hear eachother but not worry about disturbing other diners. As usual great service from Niko!
Food was good, nice decor, and great location near the Inner Harbor
We visit Kona Grill once a month and our experience is always enjoyable! We enjoy the professional and friendly service. The cobb salad is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is rich and lively. I will continue to be a repeat customer and spread the word to friends, family and business associates. Thank you!
We go here every so often for lunch and have never been disappointed. The service is always quick and friendly and the food is good.
Our reservations were during happy hour so the bar was busy and boisterous. Service at the bar was not up to par but once we were seated for dinner, our waitress was helpful, friendly and attentive. Everyone ordered a different entree and we all received our food quickly and at the same time. I had pork tenderloin and my wife had sea bass. The presentation and preparation of the meals was excellent and delicious. Although Kona Grill is a chain restaraunt it felt more like a local place that fits in well at the inner harbor.
Getting hot and delicious food in a timely fashion is always a plus in my book!
This was our second visit. As with the first, we loved the inventive Asian fusion dishes and the sushi was well presented. The drinks are the hit of the evening -- whether draft beer or unusual long drinks -- they made dining fun. Service was outstanding, especially with a full house following the Maryland-West Virginia game.
Food was great sushi (volcano roll) was great and our waiter was perfect! Definitely can't wait to go back.
I frequent here for lunch, dinner, and social gatherings. The food is great. They have this cozy lunge section with a fire pit which great for group outings. Happy dining!
Kona is located right in the middle of downtown Baltimore. A block from the water front and 4 blocks from Camden Yards. Perfect place to dine before the ball game, BUT you gotta make a reservation via Open Table. The food is quite good and the drink list is great too. Thanks to the folks at Open Table to helping us res. our table for that evening before the Red Sox vs O's game.
We went to Kona before an Orioles game. Food was great, service was a little slow but with such a large party we were patient. They gave us separate checks which was so helpful as well!
The restaurant was amazing I celebrated my birthday with friends and family and they made sure they did whatever they could sooo that we enjoyed ourselves.
This was an excellent restaurant for groups to share dishes. Additionally food is available for all types of diets. Portions are generous but not enormously large. The atmosphere is eye pleasing. A good time for all.
Our selections were tasty (shrmp and pasta), but he asparagus salad was jus a little wilted. Our only complain use that the service staff was a little TOO friendly. The waitress came around too many times...we could barely get a mouthful down without having to answer a question. Also, the staff was too quick to take the plates away....I still had bread that I was nibbling on and some soup and had to fight to keep my plate.
I continue to write the same reviews because I rarely order something different! It's that good! Sushi combo
Kona is one of my and many of my co-workers favorite lunch spots. Something for everyone from salads and sandwiches to suchi, pastas and diner entrees. Appatizers and flat breads are also delicious! If you have room for desert the red velvet cupcake is yummo! Service is generally pretty quick which is important at lunch break. Of course, I have my favorite waiters but some are better than others. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and always clean.
The food was great but our waitress Teresa was absolutely terrible. She was almost impossible to find the whole night and was ignoring us the whole time.
The red sake sangria tasted delicious! You can either have a glass or take iy by the pitcher which my party did. The big kona burger was thick and tast along with the skinny fries. I would definitely come back again.
Kona Grill has a great menu. The food was good. So good that our waiter was able to give us the recipe for the macadamia nut chicken.
The total restaurant experience and the fantastic food made our experience fabulous. Unfortunately, the waiter tried to sell us the food instead of simply tell us the specials, talking way too fast and not giving us an opportunity for questions. But we had four entrees and two appetizers and each of us was extremely happy with our choice. The butter cake and the crème brûlée left me speechless they were so good.
I am from Salisbury Maryland. I have a friend in the University of MD Hospital and will be there for several months. His wife has been staying with him around the clock. I took her out to dinner this past Friday and she said your place is "Amazing". It was great to get her out to have a couple of drinks and great food and feel normal for a night. Family will be flying in this weekend and she will be making reservations for dinner. Also I go to concerts alot in Baltimore and I always dine at Kona. Love it ! Nicole Kelley
Service was great. Even the owner/manager stopped by to say hello. Wait staff knowledgeable and friendly. Food was good. I'm not big into Asian cuisine but my date loves sushi and she enjoyed it. It's a lively place with an awesome decor.
I was excited to go here since I had just honeymooned in Hawaii a few months earlier. I think actually dining in Hawaii spoiled me and I was looking for the exact same experience, but Kona Grill was still great. The hibiscus margarita is so good!!
Right around the corner from the Inner Harbor's many food choices is this gem of a restaurant, only two blocks away. The menu is quite varied, touching on asian to fusion to comfort american!! The service was excellent, the food was very good, and I will definitely go back. I had the soft shelled crab slider, which was very tasty, if not a bit too spicy. The flatbreads are out of this world!! One flatbread yields 8 good sized pieces--we had one with apples and brie that was heavenly!! You have to try one, as there are several varieties. The bread pudding for dessert was excellent, as was the key lime pie...
we were mingling with a wedding party on Friday night (6-8) at the Baltimore restaurant. The mother of the bride wanted me to call her this week to hear how the wedding went but the napkin with her number/e-mail was misplaced. I would like to follow up if you have this information. Or give her mine.
would have wanted a private and quiet area for our group's luncheon meeting. noise too loud, could not hear each other. place not good for a group meeting
I recently celebrated my 26th birthday at Kona Grill, and everything was awesome- the server was very attentive and had a great personality. I ordered the BBQ chicken flatbread and a fried crab roll, and both items were delicious and filling. I would definitely go back there again.
Meal was good but lunch hour was packed. Next door to convention center--convenient location but we weren't the only ones there... Server came quickly but food took quite a while to come out. Not recommended if you're in a hurry.
We went there before seeinga show at the Hippodrome. The service was outstanding and the food was great. The Wave roll sushi was amazing, as we're the crab cakes. We recommend the specialty drinks also. Highly recommended.
Had a great meal and the staff was very friendly and accommodating.
Nice option for lunch convenient to convention center. Service was prompt and good without being intrusive.
I came to Baltimore for the weekend to spend time with a good close friend who loves sushi. She claims to know only a little about it, but she knows more than I. I let her pick the two sushi dishes we had. One had salmon and the other had tuna. Both were excellent. We asked for a second order of the salmon sushi dish. Delicious. We loved it. Service was excellent. Atmosphere was nice. Prices on the sushi were very reasonable. Kona was a highlight of a memorable weekend. My friend was very happy I took her there. I would definitely go back.
Kona Grill is the rare place that takes reservations and large groups and serves reasonably priced good food by the Baltimore Convention Center. If you have a small window for lunch I highly recommend it.
Been here a few times and the food is always amazing. Service could be better but that was the only real flaw to the entire evening. Would recommend this place to anyone in the area.
I work in the building upstairs and while there are many choices close by, Kona is a favorite of mine and many of my co-workers. Excellent and diverse menu and quick service, which is always a good thing on lunch break. Food is always excellent and the waitstaff is friendly.
Because this sandwich was on sourdough baguette, dipping it in the au jus just made it PERFECT! More cheese, next time, please.
Had a reservation for 9. Food came out on time and all at once. Appetizers were great (Avocado Egg Rolls and the pot stickers). Plates are reasonably priced. A good amount of food for each meal. Very friendly service that did a great job explaining the different dishes and seasonings.
Kona Grill is a chain, but definitely more on the trendier and nicer side of the spectrum of chains. The food is reasonably priced for the quality, which overall is quite good. This particular location is convenient being in the Inner Harbor and also because there is a Charm City Circulator pickup/drop off right in front for the Banner and Orange routes. We come here quite often as a result. The happy hour specials are also great.

Hey, everyone. Well, I started designing these three ships last August. We finally just released the designs to the public, so I'm free to post them as I please. They're for a mmorpg space game I'm working on called Vendetta.
Anyway, enough outta me, here's some art.
Any comments or critiques, I'd love to hear them. I won't be changing these designs any more, but I have plenty of work still ahead of me.
The concepts for the ships are as follows:
The first one is built by a militaristic faction who only have about 300 years of ship building experience. They don't have force shields or anything, so it's plated like a tank.
The second one is built by a faction who's had space flight for over a millenium, but never had cause to fight anyone (until recently.) They're in the process of converting civilian craft designs into fighters.
The third one is built by sort of a nomad faction. The ships are hacked apart and put back together in different configurations as the need arises.
So that's what I was aiming for with the three designs. Like I said, any comments or crits would be greatly appreciated!

Best Hotel Staff in Boston
Posted Aug 26, 2013 on Hotels.comWe stayed at the Ritz Carlton BC while our daughter was in the hospital for a serious operation. The entire staff of the hotel went out of their way to see that we were comfortable and well supported. It was almost like having family around us when we needed it most!

Posted Jul 23, 2013 on Hotels.comSo disappointed. Neighborhood is not great. Upon arrival, I was cleaning long hairs off the bathroom floor. Got stuck in the elevator twice. Air conditioning was not working well at all on a few very, very hot July days. Zero view. Was celebrating my first anniversary, and this hotel was certainly the big disappointment of our trip, even more so when I remember how much I was paying. Switched to the Four Seasons on our return leg. Such an improved experience. Sorry Ritz-Carlton. I loved you in New Orleans. Boston, not so much.

Did not disappoint, great 1 night stay
Posted Jun 3, 2013 on Hotels.comThe Ritz did not let us down for our 1 night stay in Boston. Great service, super nice rooms, gym on site was great, would love to come again and the Ritz is the go-to for luxury, high-end nights away from home. Just wish there were more of them but $$ is pretty high.

Expected a larger room for the price
Posted Jun 3, 2013Pros: Great service
Cons: Bedroom area was small
Location: It was fine
Beautiful Hotel had a wonderful stay - I thought the room might be larger for what I paid - it was nice but I think for the $600 a night I expected a larger than average room. No seperate sitting area - although the bathroom was nice - will probably stay somewhere different me time.

Firing Mechanism All extinguishers have pins or pull tabs that have to be removed to activate the unit. This feature prevents false activations. Some of our testers had difficulty removing the pin because it was held in by a thin sacrificial plastic tie. We found most extinguishers had two levers that are squeezed together to activate. This is in contrast to the smaller 5-BC units designed for personal watercraft, which use a more simplified firing mechanism. Kidde uses a plunger mechanism and First Alert uses a trigger to activate their unit. Both are designed so that the firing mechanism does not extend past the width of the cylinder.
Gauges There is a gauge on most extinguishers to measure the pressure of its contents. A fire extinguisher can be "overcharged" meaning the contents are under too much pressure, "discharged" meaning that there is not enough pressure to work correctly or "in the green" which means that the unit is properly charged. The standard round gauge was found on all but the personal watercraft units. Over time, or after it has been used, a fire extinguisher will loose pressure and will cease to work properly.
Most of our test extinguishers were not rechargeable. A rechargeable extinguisher can be taken to a service station for maintenance. If it is not rechargeable then it should be discarded when the gauge reads discharged or it has been in service for 12 years from manufacture.
Mounting The time it takes to find a fire extinguisher in a cluttered locker could mean the difference between saving your boat or having to jump overboard. A properly mounted fire extinguisher should be at every exit and near the engine compartment. This keeps your back to your escape route and an extinguisher ready near the likely sources of fire aboard. In the galley, an extinguisher should be mounted so you do not have to reach over the stove.
On open motorboats, fire extinguishers should be mounted in an easily accessible location. A non-marine-rated fire extinguisher could have parts that corrode or do not secure it firmly to a moving boat. Be sure to purchase a marine-rated fire extinguisher that has a noncorrosive metal or plastic bracket that can secure it firmly to a vertical surface.
Partial Discharge Fire extinguishers are designed to rapidly release fire retardant onto their target. When activated, the firing mechanism pierces a gas cylinder exerting additional pressure in the cylinder propelling the retardant out of the open nozzle. During our test we found that a partially discharged dry chemical extinguisher was inoperable after a few minutes. If you have a flare up after several minutes, a partially discharged unit might not work. It is important to replace or service the extinguisher as soon as possible.

Screw self-restraint. We've got a better weight loss success plan: Stuff yourself silly. There's a way to fill your mouth and your stomach without doing the same to your yoga pants. It's called fiber, and if you still think of it as something Grandma stirs into her OJ to stay regular, you need a serious update. "Fiber is the secret to losing weight without hunger," says Tanya Zuckerbrot, RD, author of The F-Factor Diet. One U.S. Department of Agriculture study found that women who increased their daily fiber intake from 12 grams to 24 absorbed 90 fewer calories per day than those who ate the same amount of food but less fiber. Do nothing to your diet other than add more of the rough stuff and you will lose nine pounds in a year, effortlessly. Here's how this wonder substance works—and why you'd have to be nuts to let a day pass with less than your recommended 25 grams. Learn how snacking on the right foods can help you lose weight, too, in WH's "125 Best Packaged Foods."
Fiber 101
What is it, exactly, that we're asking you to shovel into your body? Fiber is the indigestible part of a plant. It's in fruits, veggies, whole grains, nuts, legumes, and beans. Now that the fiber trend is catching on, you'll also find it added to yogurt, soy milk, pasta, and more. Other foods pause to pay a toll along your gastrointestinal highway, but fiber zips through E-Z Pass style because your body can't digest it. Like seat fillers at the Oscars, fiber fills a void and then vanishes when something better takes its place.
You've probably heard of the two kinds of fiber, soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber tends to hide inside foods—the flesh of apples, the grain of rice inside the hull. It's what gives cooked veggies their soft, mushy quality. In your stomach, soluble fiber binds with liquids to form a gummy gel that makes you feel full as it slows digestion, letting your body absorb more nutrients from the rest of your food.
Insoluble fiber is what most octogenarians are after. It bulks up as it absorbs liquid in the stomach; the bulk pushes waste down and out of your system. Insoluble fiber is usually found in the skins and outer parts of foods, and it's what gives many their tough, chewy texture. "Think of insoluble fiber as a broom," Zuckerbrot says. "Basically, it speeds up the passage of material through your digestive tract and sweeps out all the toxins in your body." Translation: Hello, fiber; goodbye, constipation.
As long as you're eating natural foods, you'll reap the belly-filling benefits of both kinds of fiber. By taking up space in your stomach, fiber foils overeating by making you feel too stuffed to keep snacking. And while you're enjoying the satisfaction of a full stomach, you can gloat over the fact that it likely took fewer calories to achieve that feeling: Foods that pack a lot of fiber can help lower your carb intake. If you're noshing on cereal with 44 grams of carbs per serving, but 10 of those carb grams come from dietary fiber, your body will absorb only the 34 grams of nonfiber carbs. The result: High-fiber fare can help you stay out of the spike-and-crash cycle some high-carb foods can create.
Diamonds in the roughage
The only bad thing about fiber is that most of us don't get enough of it. "More research is showing that Americans' intake of fruits and vegetables remains below recommended levels," says Sari Greaves, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. Remember that RDA of 25 grams? The average woman squeaks by on about 14, according to the Agricultural Research Service. Too many of us chow down on fiber-empty grub like chips and soda. Fiber-rich foods deliver more bang for their bulk: They tend to be the most nutrient-dense, which matters if you're cutting calories.
Now that fiber comes in everything from yogurt to grape juice, it might be tempting to let fiber-added goods fill the gap. But while those products have their place, they shouldn't be your go-to source. "It's always better to get your fiber from whole foods," Greaves says. Supplements and add-ins don't have the same nutritional benefits as whole foods.
Some easy ways to sneak in natural fiber

The Diamondbacks hope to stay above .500 and even the series when they visit the Rockies on Saturday. Both Colorado and Arizona spent some time earlier this season believing it would make the postseason, and the two proud franchises are now just playing out the string.The Rockies slugged four home runs to take a 9-4 win in the series opener as players like Charlie Blackmon, Corey Dickerson and Charlie Culberson try to prove they belong in the team's 2014 plans. The Diamondbacks (77-76) are a couple of days removed from mathematical elimination but still have a winning season in their sights.

The sinkerball specialist is having trouble getting through six innings and surrendered 12 walks in his last three turns. Cahill is 1-2 in three starts against Colorado this season and allowed four runs in six innings to lose to the Rockies on May 22.McHugh is getting a spot start in place of left-hander Jorge De La Rosa, who will miss his second straight turn with a thumb injury. McHugh allowed one run on four hits over five innings against St. Louis on Monday but failed to pick up his first win. The 26-year-old is making his first career appearance against Arizona.WALK-OFFS1. Rockies RF Michael Cuddyer (forearm) sat out Friday and is day-to-day.
