Most of Hazel's breakfast staff are now working mornings at the new Cactus Cantina.
Cactus Cantina is using Hazel's pancake recipe.
By John Mullen
June 11, 2018 – Orange Beach, AL (OBA®) – Cactus Cantina has quickly established itself as a tradition with its popular cuisine of Tex-Mex with a Southern twist including its light, crispy chips and fresh-made salsa and guacamole.
But with its newest location on beach road in Orange Beach, it is keeping alive the longstanding tradition of a good ol’ breakfast at Hazel’s – with a Tex-Mex twist.
It’s the only one of the five Cactus Cantinas serving breakfast in the long-time Hazel’s location. Serving you that familiar breakfast will be some familiar faces with dishing up familiar recipes.
“I think we kept 13 out 14 from Hazel’s,” co-owner Michael Lane said. “They’re the same people here that you are used to getting that friendly service with. It’s the same building and the same crew and a lot of the same ingredients they used at Hazel’s.”

By John Mullen
June 11, 2018 – Orange Beach AL (OBA®) – Linda Tucker wanted to do something special for her 50th wedding anniversary on June 8.
So, she stopped at one of her favorite restaurants, Doc’s Seafood Shack, and got a to-go plate of her favorite dishes. There she chatted at the counter with a couple on one side and a man on the other as she waited.
“We started talking about how it was my anniversary and I stopped in to get some food that I thought I really wanted,” Tucker said. “I came for fried chicken and onion rings and this is the best place for onion rings.”
Before the day was over she was treated to one of the nicest surprises springing directly from her counter conversation with new acquaintances. And ended up with a dozen red roses at her door. The same type of flowers her husband gave her for many of their 46 anniversaries during their marriage.
Though it was her 50th wedding anniversary, it was her fourth without husband Tommy who passed away in 2014. The Tuckers retired after 33 years each in education and moved to Orange Beach in 1998.

While approving an outdoor food court plan for beach road east of Lartigue’s Seafood on June 5 as part of the Beach Village planned unit development, it was made clear music would not be part of the attraction.
Also, during the meeting, the council began the process of taking over maintenance and control of Canal Road from Alabama 161, or the Doc’s Seafood Shack intersection, to its end at Perdido Gate subdivision.

Harsany was relaxing in the bar area of his iconic Cosmo’s restaurant on Canal Road, the flagship of the five restaurants he and Jodi now own in the city. They took over the Ivan-ravished courtyard-type building in 2006 and built it into an icon of the Gulf Coast culinary scene.

John Mason-Smith flew onto the Stennis aircraft carrier aboard a plane like this Grumman.By John Mullen
May 18, 2018 – Orange Beach, AL (OBA®)- Landing on an aircraft carrier is unlike any landing 99 percent of the population will ever experience. The plane is not slowing down to gently light on the runway.
Oh, no. It’s speeding up, going all out just in case.
“They’ve got one chance to catch the hook so you’re accelerating into your landing because they want to keep going if they miss,” John Mason-Smith of Perdido Key said.
Mason-Smith was enjoying a specialty coffee at BuzzCatz Coffee and Sweets one bright morning reveling in the memories from a trip landing aboard and taking off from the USS John C. Stennis aircraft carrier.
Mason-Smith’s once-in-a-lifetime experience came from simply being a fan of the Navy’s Blue Angel Flight Demonstration team. Well, maybe not a simple fan.
“I follow the Blue Angels,” he said. “I’m just a huge, fanatical fan of theirs. I follow them so close – I follow all the social media for the Blue Angels, the navy, naval aviation and all that.”
May 16, 2018 – Orange Beach, AL (OBA®) - Educational opportunities continue to grow in Orange Beach and the city council continues to provide a helping hand with programs for the local school which is part of the Baldwin County system.
Mayor Tony Kennon
During the May 15 meeting, the council voted to give Orange Beach Elementary School $54,500 to expand its Guided Reading Program. During the same meeting, the council also voted to spend $175,000 to fund the city’s free afterschool program Expect Excellence through the end of the year. That program provides tutoring, athletics and instruction in more than 20 fields at the Recreation Center.
Both actions come on the heels of a groundbreaking for the new seventh-through-12th-grade school on Canal Road in Orange Beach on May 11. The city donated 40 acres the city says is valued at $5 million to the Baldwin County Board of Education.
Mayor Tony Kennon said its all a part of the city’s ongoing commitment to make Orange Beach schools top notch. He was ready to move forward immediately on the reading program, one he hadn’t known about.

May 14, 2018 - Orange Beach, AL - (OBA®) - What a difference a year can make. Before September 2017, officials in Orange Beach, Alabama, didn’t have a procedure in place for addressing people’s concerns about outdoor cats. Today, the city has a thriving Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program. The Orange Beach Animal Care and Control Program (OBACCP) has spayed or neutered more than 150 cats and kittens and adopted out at least 30 to date. The amazing turnaround is due to the hard work of Tom Conerly, Orange Beach’s newest animal control officer.
Conerly, a former military colonel, began his work with TNR in January 2017 — after he and his wife spotted three kittens in their driveway. Three kittens became five, and then nine. Conerly knew something had to be done. Read An Amazing ACO: Tom Conerly Changes City’s Approach to Community Cats on Alleycat.org.
A rendering of the future Wolf Bay Bridge in Orange Beach.Mayor Tony Kennon
By John Mullen
May 4, 2018 – Orange Beach, AL (OBA®) – Mayor Tony Kennon wants a Wolf Bay Bridge and he wants it now. But he’s not is so much of a rush to move forward without making sure all parties are on board and understand the process.
Orange Beach is poised to spend a little over $3 million on survey work as well as design, engineering and permitting to kick off the process leading to construction of the long-awaited span. During the May 1 work session, the council also discussed funding for the Expect Excellence after-school program through December.
Kennon said before moving forward with the preliminary spending to start the bridge project he wants to sit down with property owners George Barber and David Lawrenz and officials with the state.
May 3, 2018 - Orange Beach, AL (OBA®) - Jay Schenck has been serving up scrumptious seafood platters in Bubba’s Seafood House on beach road since 1998. And while he wants the seafood to draw ‘em in, he wants them to have fun during their visit.
“We wanted it to be just a good ol’ place to go,” Schenck said. “Everybody knows a Bubba.”
But the veteran restaurateur knows it’s more than food bringing people in the door and keeps ‘em coming back. He has been running restaurants in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach for the better part of 30 years and has owned or been a partner in a dozen or more. Today he’s pared it down to Bubba’s.
“There are four or five things in the restaurant business you have to do to be good,” he said. “Your food has got to be good, but the food is the third or fourth thing. The first thing is the presentation and environment of the building outside.”
May 2, 2018 - Ornage Beach, AL (OBA®) - Baldwin County Public Schools Superintendent Eddie Tyler and City of Orange Beach Mayor Tony Kennon invite citizens to the groundbreaking for the new Orange Beach Middle and High School on Friday, May 11 at 10:30 a.m. The architectural renderings will also be unveiled during the ceremony at the construction site.

April 19, 2018 – Orange Beach, AL (OBA®)- Finally, all seemed to be in order for the transfer of land. And then it wasn’t.
Since a meeting in December, an action to transfer land from Orange Beach to the Baldwin County Board of Education has been ever present on every city council agenda. And every time it was postponed.
Also, during the April 17 regular meeting City Administrator Ken Grimes announced an upgrade in the city’s bond rating to AA1 by Moody’s Investor Service, one step below the top rating available.
When land transfer came up, Councilman Jeff Silvers began a motion the council has approved every meeting since Dec. 12.
“Move to postpone consideration …” Silvers began but was interrupted by City Clerk Renee Eberly and City Attorney Wanda Cochran.
“We’re ready,” Cochran said.
Cochran said the deed was prepared and the conditions of use agreement was ready to go as well. But the councilmembers hadn’t received those documents.

April 18, 2018 – Orange Beach, AL (OBA®) - Clorinda Bassolino Meadlock wants you to feel like you’ve stepped into a cozy family place when you visit Franco’s Italian Restaurant. All over the walls are pictures of her family – parents, grandparents uncles and cousins from the 1930s to the present.
It’s her family’s tradition that continues today. On a recent afternoon, she following her toddler daughter around the restaurant and chatting up a tableful of diners who were exchanging smiles with the youngster.
At Franco’s you could easily think you’ve stepped into a ristorante tucked away in a borough of New York City. Precisely the feeling Clorinda wants you to have visiting Franco’s.
Fish will be flying, Joe will be smiling and a good time will be had by all. Just like Joe has wanted and expected since he took over a shack on the beach and turned it into one of the world’s most famous beach bars.
