Places to Eat During General Conference.
 
You can tell I am hungry. :D

Here is a list of a few MUST places to eat at during the Tampa FL visit to general conference. Anyone can add to the list


1. My first choice is the Columbia Restaurant. This is over in Ybor city, and it is some of the best, THE BEST, cuban/spanish food you will eat. Make sure to get some Spanish Bean Soup or Cuban Black Bean Soup. Either is excellent! The Palomilla steak is great. And the Arroz con Pollo (chicken and yellow rice) is the bomb!!


2. For those that want to spend a lot of money, Berns Steakhouse is a must. They age their beef, that they raise themselves. You can tour the kitchen, and the largest wine cellar in the east southern USA. You can pick out you seafood out a large holding tank. Then for dessert, go up to the dessert room. Plan on spending close to 60 - 70 bucks each. But it is an experience for the wealthy. (my wealthy sister took my wife and I there, and spent over $400 for 4 of us, but her husband drank like a fish too)


3.

Well, I plan to have breakfast at Cracker Barrel for sure. :)

I wouldn't eat in a place where you had to pay $60-70 per person. No way. Not unless someone else was paying that is. :D

I'm with you. I would never spend that much for one meal and I wouldn't let anyone pay that much for me to eat.

I believe that we are to be modest in all things. I believe it is wrong to spent to much on clothes, cars, meals, etc. We are to be good stewarts of our money.
