Today our friend Marit had a rare day off of work – I think she’s worked 19 days in a row or something crazy like that.  So we thought it would be a good day for a happy hour on the water somewhere.  We decided upon a new place with a great location, Hudson at Waterway East in  Delray Beach.

While waiting for Marit, Susan and I started off with the portabello fries and the lamb sliders.  Both were pretty good – the fries had a nice breading and the sliders were topped with feta, basic, & mint and served with a tzatziki sauce.

After Marit arrived, we ordered the crispy fried calamari and the Tuscan flatbread.  The calamari were topped with cherry peppers and were served with a lemon roumalade.  The girls’ favorite was the flatbread, made with a basil pesto, mozzarella, teardrop tomatoes, arugula, and lemon vinaigrette.

The crowd was pretty steady, and actually got busier as the evening went along, which is not bad a for a Tuesday.  Then again, with the great location on the Intracoastal and the perfect South Florida weather, how can you go wrong at Hudson at Waterway East?
