This Thanksgiving we ventured to Tarpon Springs. It is the Grecian capitol of Florida and the Sponge Capital of the World.    As most people know, the restaurant world virtually closes to the public on Thanksgiving day. That's when the bulk of the American public gathers for family time and football. Dimitris Celebrates This year, the owners of...
For all the years we have lived in Florida we never really knew much about Eau Gallie. We were aware that it was a town someplace but never knew exactly where it was. We recently found out when we went to Melbourne and attended their First Friday celebration. Eau Gallie in fact...
  During the winter months, a trip to Siesta Key can be a bit of a pricey affair. But in the off season, it can be a nice little trip. Especially if you don't mind being back from the beach a bit and traveling in for your Gulf Experience. Unless you have booked a beachside resort, condo or hotel room,...
When it comes to a true ice cream experience in Central Florida, our choice is Frostbite Ice Cream in the little hamlet of Frostproof. It's nestled along Highway 27A on the edge of town. The first thing we noticed was in addition to the dine-in the place also does a great drive-thru business. ...
We have just spent the most incredible three weeks of racing in Florida. It all happens in beautiful little Highlands County where there was a myriad of events from local displays and parties to a transport parade through the city of Sebring.  Race Month - as they call it - actually begins with an event at the Sebring International...
While looking for a great breakfast in Venice recently, we rediscovered the Original Word of Mouth.

The Restaurant The Venice location is the second Original Word of Mouth, causing me to...
For the past few years we have tried to search out a great place to celebrate Easter. We have been to several Sunrise Services, but none have paralleled the one we attended on The Space Coast. Celebrating the Resurrection of our Savior on the shores at Satellite Beach was one of the most wonderful and...
Ideal Classic Cars is located in Venice. The question is, is it a museum or a dealership? Well it appears to be both. Set along the US 41 Bypass, Ideal Classic Cars has over 100 vintage, classic and custom cars, trucks, vans and motorcycles. They are parked in a 30,000 square foot, air conditioned building....
The city of Arcadia has positioned itself as center for antiques in Florida. We found a lot of quaint little shops there, but the Bizarre Bazaar is an antique store with an unusual atmosphere. We discovered it on the second floor of the Arcadia Opera house. Those who follow us know we like the fun and...
On our most recent visit, we found that Cafe 66 is a wonderful option for breakfast in Vero Beach. As always, we turned to the experts and asked our friends at Vero Beach Foodie for a recommendation. I have to tell you, the responses came quickly. We reviewed them, did a little online review and...
