Roberto’s Italian Restaurant is a HIT

June 13, 2011

I wanted to be certain that I got your attention. For years I have lamented that Florence has a serious lack of choices for locally owned restaurants that offer good food– especially if you are budget conscious. Michael’s used to help fill that void, and when it changed ownership and ultimately closed it was a [...]

Rumors, Openings, and Closings in Florence, SC

March 5, 2011

I am going to update this post as places open, places close and rumors bounce around and I will update when they become reality (if they become reality). By reality I don’t mean that your mama’s cousin works for the XYZ Company and they know for a FACT that it is a Buffalo Wild Wings. [...]

I had a lovely lunch today at Fat Boys Backyard Grill. Fat Boys is located in th old Cafe Florentine in Huntington Plaza on Second Loop Road. I had catfish, cream corn, and slaw. Not the healthiest option on the menu, but very good. I prefer a different type of slaw, but my catfish was [...]

Zapatas 2d Loop

April 21, 2010

I recently went to the new Zapata’s on Second Loop. It is tucked away and faces sideways so you may have missed it. I consider myself to be something of a “Mexican food” connoisseur.
