    Island Food & Iceland Food



    We're here at Pelican Bay at Lucaya - the destination when you're the 101.5 Employee of The Day - and it's absolutely beautiful!

    I was just talking to Verly, the chef at Sabor, the fabulous poolside restaurant at Pelican Bay. He's from Iceland and he brings a unique flair to the menu here. Can't wait for the Sunday Brunch - Icelandic Eggs Benedict - yes, with smoked salmon.



    He has a book out featuring a variety of recipes from Iceland, along with specialties from the menu here at Sabor - you can take a look at IcelandicChef.com.

    When does Taravella play?

    A big thanks to everyone who helped make a dream come true for the J.P. Taravella High School Marching Band - raising the money to send the band to Washington D.C. to participate in the Presidential Inaugural Parade. They're the only high school marching band from Florida to perform for the new President - although they're one of about 100 bands and troupes participating in the parade.

    J.P. Taravella is about 75th in the lineup. Here's who's scheduled, and in what order, so you can keep out for our local heroes.
