That is What's Up!!!

A LEGEND RETURNS!
TOCQUES PLACE IS BACK! 🍽️❤️🎉

✨ Some places serve great food. Others create memories that last a lifetime. Tocques Place did BOTH! ✨

For those of us lucky enough to have been part of the magic of Tocques Place in the late ’80s and early ’90s, you know it was so much more than a restaurant. It was a gathering place where locals came together for incredible food, laughter, friendship, and unforgettable times. 🥂❤️

Many of us who worked there formed friendships that have lasted decades. Friendships that, to this day, feel more like FAMILY! ❤️

And at the heart of it all was the one and only Maureen Crescenzo! 👩‍🍳🌟

A true St. Augustine culinary icon, Maureen has spent her life creating extraordinary dishes, exploring exotic flavor combinations, and inspiring everyone lucky enough to experience her talents. From rubbing elbows with celebrated chefs like Ned Pollack to creating her own unforgettable culinary legacy, Maureen has always had a special gift for bringing people together through FOOD! 🌺🍤🍷

THE MAGIC IS COMING BACK! ❤️
We are beyond thrilled to announce the return of TOCQUES PLACE, this time as a FOOD TRUCK at our favorite waterfront gathering spot, Marina Munch Waterside Food Truck Park! 🚚🌴⚓

And here’s where the story gets even sweeter! 💕

Maureen’s longtime friend Nico Recore, who once worked alongside her at the original Tocques Place, is now helping welcome Maureen to Marina Munch! Talk about life coming full circle! 🥹❤️

From working together all those years ago to bringing the magic back together today, this is truly a reunion worth celebrating!

For those who remember Tocques Place, get ready for a delicious trip down memory lane! And for those who never had the pleasure, you’re about to discover why this little restaurant became such a legendary part of St. Augustine’s history! 🌟

🥳 THE COUNTDOWN IS ON! 🥳

We can’t wait to welcome Maureen back into the kitchen and experience the incredible flavors, creativity, and culinary magic that made Toke’s Place so special!

Coming Soon to Marina Munch Waterside Food Truck Park!

St. Augustine, FL 32084

WOW! What an incredible turnout for our 4th Annual Halloween Pet Costume Contest! 🐶❤️

I just HAD to share another round of photos because these adorable contestants were simply too cute not to! And what an amazing day it was!

Seeing so many people come out to spend the afternoon with their dogs, families, and friends, enjoying delicious food, cold drinks from the Cantina, beautiful waterfront views, and fantastic live music by John Winters, was absolutely wonderful!

Days like this remind me just how special Marina Munch really is and how lucky I am to be part of such an incredible venue and community! ❤️
