The oceanfront Benny’s on the Beach, perched upon Lake Worth beach, already has one of the best dining views in the county. Now it’s got a kitchen with ambitions to match that view.[and...]
Leading that kitchen is Chef Jeremy Hanlon, who brought along his achiote paste for nutty notes and flavor depth and some zingy tomatillos to rev things up.
His culinary experience includes stints at Daniel Boulud restaurants in New York and Palm Beach, Charlie Trotter’s in Chicago, and Michelin-starred restaurants in France and Spain.
He also competed on Food Network’s “Chopped” series some years ago and won the National Restaurant Association’s 2010 Hot Chef Challenge.
IF YOU GO:
BENNY’S ON THE BEACH is located at 10 S Ocean Blvd., Lake Worth (on the Atlantic Ocean beach in Lake Worth); 561-582-9001; BennysOnTheBeach.com and Facebook.I have this to add. When my father was in town, we enjoyed a lovely lunch, he sat down to a hearty shellfish bowl in a tomato base and I dined on the fish tacos. The tacos were quite tasty and a little spicy with sriracha added to the sauce. You just can't beat being ON THE BEACH!
