The Ybor City Wine Bar.
There was quite the surprise this week at the Ybor City Wine Bar. Rick Garced, the President & CEO of “United States Sommelier Association” made a visit. This is the person who signed Lady Jaymes Sommelier Graduations Diplomas. It was Rick’s first visit to GaYBOR/Ybor City. He absolutely loved it and can not wait to return soon!
The Queen & I Thai Restaurant
Our very favorite Thai restaurant in St. Petersburg is The Queen & I Thai. The owner, Bryan “Darling” Chant will make sure you have a great time. For lovers of the “Pho” Bryan’s version is one of the best Thai style!!!.A lot of Asian specialty Laos/ Thai/ Japanese dishes are featured. If you have not tried Pho yet do so here. It is the national dish of Southeast Asia. There are different versions depending on what region you are in.
The Queen & I Thai is right on Central Ave in St. Pete in the Grand Central District. Become Bryans facebook friend today at https://www.facebook.com/bryan.chant.12?fref=ts
The Pro Shop, Est. 1976
Any trip to Clearwater a stop at the Pro Shop is a must do!!! It is now the oldest LGBT Bar in the Bay area starting back in 1976.. We walked in and knew everybody in the club. WOW what a Cheers bar!! With Great people & great Drinks it’s easy to see how The Pro Shop has been a staple in our community for so many continuous years.
Tampa Recycling
Three Cheers for Tampa Mayor, Bob Buckhorn!!! Our mayor has just made recycling so much easier! There are now 96 gal green dump bins being distributed throughout Tampa. Everything recyclable goes in the bins together. It’s easier to say what does not get recycled than dsse. The new bins inspired us to do a garage clean out.
Sorry Carrie, the plastic containers that your plants came in got recycled!!! LOL
Carrie’s tub is also going!!!!
