"Do You Want to Know a Secret"

 Do You Want To Know a Secret? The new Bunky's in Suntree is open for lunch. Although according to bartender Lexi, it is not officially opening until December 1. I had gone to the Zoo and decided to see if they were open. They have been open only for lunch on weekends, but since I was in the area, I decided to give it a try. They were open...

I took a picture of the front. The building use to be the Charlie & Jakes Brewery at Suntree. That closed last year and nothing had been in the spot. When Ensco was located in Suntree, many od us were regulars at the restaurant and bar.

The inside is completely different. All the internal walls and rooms are gone and it is now one large area. My bartender was Lexi, with help from Marissa, and I basically had the bar to myself. No one knows there are open. Here is Lexi behind the new bar.

Marissa explained to me that the jar of pineapples is for a martini using their own created flavored vodka. Yup, that is vodka that the pineapple is soaking in. She said they were not planning to use the pineapple, but just the flavored vodka. Two weeks of fermenting. I said they should have a pineapple eating event and told her the story of my cousin Pam's marinated cherries at the Daytona 500.

The menu is pretty much the same as the Bunky's in Indialantic. This is a cup of New England Clam Chowder. I am not sure who the Landshark belongs to....

And Bunky's is known for the raw oysters. They have three tiers, this was Tier 1, the cheapest, from Virginia. There was horseradish and cocktail sauce, but not sure what the second container had although I dunked the oysters in it.

The lunch was great and here are a few more pictures of the new interior.

The bar area...you can see my beer and platter.

The bar and brewing area. They currently did not have any local beers, but there were people working in the brewery. I assume their beers are coming.

The dining area, with many different table sizes.

They still have an outdoor area for dining and/or drinking. Similar to C&Js.

Overall, it was a very nice experience. It may become my go-to after visiting the Zoo.

I have been to 10 new restaurants in 2025 with a goal of 12. A list of the places...

I am on schedule to do 52 different places for the year. So far I have done 44, The purple ones are the new places I have never been.

About Title

Do You Want to Know a Secret

"Do You Want to Know a Secret" is a song by English rock band the Beatles from their 1963 album Please Please Me, sung by George Harrison. In the United States, it was the first top ten song to feature Harrison as a lead singer, reaching No. 2 on the Billboard chart in 1964 as a single released by Vee-Jay.

"Do You Want to Know a Secret", written in autumn 1962, was primarily composed by John Lennon but credited to Lennon–McCartney. The 1963 version by Billy J. Kramer with the Dakotas (a UK No. 2) credited the composition to "McCartney–Lennon". The song was inspired by "I'm Wishing", a tune from Walt Disney's 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs which Lennon's mother, Julia, would sing to him as a child. The first two lines of the song in Disney's movie ("Want to know a secret? Promise not to tell?") come right after the opening lyrics ("You'll never know how much I really love you... You'll never know how much I really care..."). McCartney has said it was a "50–50 collaboration written to order", i.e., for Harrison to sing, but Lennon, who always claimed the song as his own, explained in a 1980 interview that he had realized as soon as he had finished writing the song that it best suited Harrison.
