Turns out that the Well, I'm not a fan of seafood myself, but as a former resident of Tampa, it seems to me that one of the "hot spots" for seafood is a place called "Shells". Now, I can't personally vouch for the place, but when seafood was mentioned, the answer invariably came up "Shells". If you're interested in real food, like beef, the place to go is Bern's Steak House on S. Howard. This place, however, is a little more expensive, approx $35-50 per person, depending on what is ordered. This is also the place to go for those of you who are wine conn-o-soors (don't know how to spell it, didn't want to try!) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Glidden E-mail: glidden@informix.com Informix Software, Inc. **************************************************************************** "When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout!" **************************************************************************** Disclaimer: The opinions expressed herein are solely my own, no one else's. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
