“on the way to the beach”
Shell's restaurant, located "On The Way To The Beach" in Port Aransas, Texas, can be described as a Mecca for both local foodies and tourists seeking seriously good food. Established by Heber Stone (along with his wife Karen and son Heber Stone, Jr.), Shell's definitely shakes off the "old and tired" and gets down to "real food". Heber Stone began his culinary training with the Omni Hotel Corporation under the tutelage of European Chefs and Food and Beverage Directors.

His apprenticeship continued at the trendy Aspin, Colorado restaurant, the Wineskin, under Chef Gert Rausch.
