| Sabal House Bed & Breakfast in Lake Worth, Florida |
This week
features Sabal Palm House, a Bed and Breakfast Inn, whose history dates back to
1936. The tour guests were not only
introduced to the rooms of this historic jewel, but were also served White
Chocolate scones; whose history dates back to 1513, and flour via the Romans circa 9000 BC. The scones accompanied a Hibiscus Tea, with
tea being indigenous to Burma (Southeast Asia), popularized by the Dutch East India Company, and
made a staple by Catherine Braganza in 1660, wife of King Charles II. Both
sweet treats were served to the guests of the Sabal Palm House. Tour Guests also
visited The Sugarcane Lady at Lake Worth’s Famers Market to taste pure sugar
cane juice, George’s Meat Market for Beef Stroganoff, Mother Earth’s Cafe for
Black bean burger salad with cilantro dressing, tortillas at the Tortilleria; and to the LULA arts district
to visit Lake Worth Art League Gallery and Clay, Glass, Metal, Stone.
