  • Nonna’s Bistro & Cafe

    Doris and I recently found ourselves in the Hillsboro Inlet area on a Saturday evening.  On this occasion, we had eaten an early dinner and therefore were now looking for some light fare to hold us through the rest of the evening. I recalled a Rick Tobin video a while back featuring Nonna’s. Confident in Rick’s…

  • Bistro Mezzaluna

    We have visited Bistro Mezzaluna on numerous occasions and will tell you that the Happy Hour is a great value. The appetizers are a nice size portion and I strongly recommend the Fruti de Mar.

Upon entering the restaurant you are almost swallowed up by the grandiosity of the layout.  Immediately to your right, you have a huge live lobster tank along with a sizeable display of fresh seafood.

  • Taverna on the Bay

    On our latest trip to St. Pete Beach, Doris and I discovered what we can only describe as this area’s newest gem.  During our first night in St. Pete Beach we decided that after the 4-hour drive, we would dine locally.

  • Alabama Jacks

    Having heard so much about the conch fritters at Alabama Jacks on Card Sound in Key Largo in the past, we just had to check it out this time.  The trick to finding it is to make a left off US 1 at the Last Chance Bar onto Card Sound Road.  After a little ride…
