A Florida Must

Places that I make a point to stop because I love them so:

1. The Old Spanish Sugar Mill - For the 5-grain pancakes which you make yourself on a griddle in the center of your table.  This cute little old mill is located inside of De Leon Springs State Park.

2.  Planet Smoothie - For a Twig & Berries smoothie but to make it better you have to ask them to add plain oatmeal.

3.  Fort De Soto - For multiple years this location was voted America's Most Beautiful Beach

4.  Wahoo's Waterside Pub & Patio - We don't go for their service...oh no if you would go for their service you wouldn't walk in the door.  It is atrocious.  We suck up the bad service and stay there for the deliciously, amazing hand-pressed burgers and excellently seasoned fries on the side.  Sit on the dock patio.  Located off of Redington Shores & Madeira's Beach.

5. The Columbia Restaurant - In St. Augustine, it's a Florida tradition.  Get the steak saltade.
