Last week, we were down in the Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg area sampling Bloody Marys.
Our final Bloody Mary in Florida was my favorite, but I have to say it is because I had a little more say in the matter.
Before we go into details, here are the original stats on this drink at Rumfish:
Mix: Unsure… it was sweet and tasted “vegetable-y” to my companion. I think it was Campbell’s if I had to take a guess.
Chaser: No
Fixin’s: One lime and two olives, originally, but we took care of that.
Price: $?
We were here for a brunch buffet ($25/person), so I picked up some Bloody Mary essentials at the buffet and used them to spruce up the drink. Crab, shrimp, asparagus, cheese, meat…. ah, I almost felt like I was back home for a minute there.
I really wish restaurants outside of the Midwest would catch on to this trend. Especially in places like Florida, where they have a heavy population of defectors from the cold weather states!
Aside from having to doctor up my own drink, the brunch here was quite good and filling. We also enjoyed seeing the indoor aquarium, where people also have the chance to swim with the fishes!
Cheers!
