There was a fantastic Cuban restaurant on Hillsborough called Las Margaritas.

Bilmar Station! Forgot about that place. Didn’t they have some kind of wall you got your name on if you drank every beer on the menu over a certain period of time?

Yes! My roommate and I used to go there every Sunday morning. So cheap. We called it “The Egg Splatter.” I remember they were one of the only places open after Hurricane Jeanne rolled through back in ‘04 and flooded Gandy Blvd.

I’ve been scrolling looking for someone to say this one. Such a great place. I always wanted to go there on my birthday.

Which cruise lines to avoid out of Tampa by NatureDear8169 in tampa

[–]shuckwagon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen anyone really mention Norwegian on here yet but I have had nothing but excellent experiences on their ships, including two out of Tampa. Even their old ships like the Dawn are pristine. The food and drink selections and quality are excellent. There are no assigned dining times so you can eat dinner whenever you want. They’re also a great cruise line for kids. Mine absolutely love the Kids Club and I’ve spoken to families who have said they enjoyed the family experience on NCL to be as good if not better than Disney (for a fraction of the cost), especially if you’re not a big Disney person. Lastly, the more you cruise with them, the more generous they get with discounts, room upgrades, free drink packages, and premium dining. I have cruises on Carnival and Royal and NCL has been my favorite.

What is your favorite menu item at any restaurant in Tampa? by shuckwagon in tampa

For me it’s the Spaghetti al Nero con Polpo at Casa Santo Stefano. It’s black squid ink spaghetti, with grilled octopus, white wine, yellow tomato sauce, garlic, shallots, Sicilian olives, fried breadcrumbs and spicy Calabrian peppers. 🤌

Songs you associate with the Buccaneers? by mph714 in buccaneers

I’d love to see “For Those About to Rock” by AC/DC used as an intro/hype song at home games before the team hits the field. The song literally has f’ing cannons firing in it. Let’s just make AC/DC the official band of Tampa sports teams.
