Its time for howling and laughter as Key West prepares for the month of May. Join in on two fabulous events that are filled with local camaraderie and fun. This Wednesday, April 28th, a full moon rises over the island, bringing out mysterious and eclectic characters. Stroll to the Artsy South End of Duval Street and join in on the South Duval Gallery and Café Neighborhood Howl. From 7pm-10pm, the South Duval Neighborhood bars, restaurants and cafes will open their doors offering delectable foods and drink. A fun full moon night, art galleries and cozy unique shops stay open late to welcome all the Full Moon Howlers.

One night of howling, the second night howling with laughter. This Thursday and Friday, April 29 and 30 (9pm), comedian Judy Tenuta will be performing live at the Bourbon Street Show Lounge. Tenuta’s comedic exaggerated and off-beat style pull you in, challenge your concept of social norms, and make your cry with hilarity. Outrageous, edgy, faux yet fierce feminist and just plain LOUD, Tenuta’s appearance is a Key West first and will be sold out. For more information and tickets visit https://www.bourbonlivekw.com/

Finally, onto important matters, food! This week’s featured restaurant is Banana Café. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner this eclectic French Café offers delectable savory dishes in a casual island setting. The Eggs Benedict with Norwegian Salmon is to die for! http://www.banana-cafe-key-west.com/

Warm Regards from the Mermaid & The Alligator!
