Great Japanaese in NY at Nobu.
Best deli for me is Carnegie Deli
Berns. F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C and a real experience. I try to go there whenever I go to the Tampa area. One of my favorote parts of the meal experience is the private dessert room. Great food, great atmosphere and a lot of fun. Definately one of my favorites in Florida. I also like Hops Brewery. Good steaks, good food.
Been to Nobu several times with clients. I'm not into the sushi thing, but the several non sushi items I ate were good.
Carnegie Deli ......
went down big time. Not what it used to be.
Actually the place that I mentioned in my previous post, "Harold's Deli" is owned and operated by the former owner of the Carnegie Deli. Guess that's why the Carnegie now sucks and Harold's is good.
Have you ever eaten in the ORIGINAL "Crabby Bills" on Indian Rocks Beach? That was one of my favorite seafood places in Florida. I remember that they started to expand and open up all over HWY 19, but the last time I went there the ones all over HWY 19, except for one were closed. The Indian Rocks beach place is the best.
Last time I went to the Original Palm, it was so so service wise. The Palm West is a really great place.
