June 21st, 2008 categories: Beaches & Boating in Pinellas, Eat A Peach Restaurant Reviews, Pinellas Fun Things to Do
I’m often amazed to meet so many people that have lived here for years and haven’t yet ventured out to visit the beach at Caladesi Island. If that’s you, you won’t want to miss the next boat that departs regularly from Honeymoon Island on a quick trip over to Caladessi Island. The Caladesi Connection has departures daily and $10 gets you there, $6 for kids 4-12 and kids 3 and under are free.
Our fabulous beach was recently voted the #1 Beach in the United States! To get an idea of what a day at Caladesi Island beach is like, see Visit Florida or Caladesi Beach.
This white-sand beach is secluded and on many days you’ll be able to watch dolphin splashing about just off the shore.
If you’re a sea shell collector, go early in the morning and prepare to be blown away.
You can have a simple lunch at the Caladesi Cafe where you can grab a Read the rest of this entry »

Who Else Wants to Know Where to Find the Best Greek Salad? It’s at an Ordinary Palm Harbor Restaurant.
December 10th, 2007 categories: Eat A Peach Restaurant Reviews
One of the many joys of living in Tampa Bay, and in and around the Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks in particular, is the abundance of great Greek food. The docks are surrounded by an array of dining choices, but let’s face it, while the Tarpon sponge docks aren’t the zoo that Clearwater Pier 60 can be, sometimes I just don’t feel like dealing with the tourists or the parking.
Sometimes a gal just wants a quick bite on the cheap - and it can be found in a very ordinary restaurant, very popular for it’s great breakfasts. Emily’s Family Restaurant at 2609 Alt. 19 in Palm Harbor, just south of Alderman Road. In fact, if you’re in town searching for that Crystal Beach, FL home, Emily’s is right on the corner of the road into Crystal Beach. If it’s a great cheap no-frills meal you’re after, drive right past the Lucky Dill and bee-line it to Emily’s and slide into a comfy red-leather booth.
