I was not expecting us to get 8 scoops of ice cream that night! We managed to rush home and stick it in the freezer 😂. 

📍 The Revolution Ice Cream 
(Multiple Tampa bay locations)

revicecream 

The sampler is worth it if you have people to share with or want to try multiple flavors! They are all really good and super creamy. I love all the fun flavors!

Have you heard of a Root Perm? I’ve seen this done in Asia, so I was excited to try it out since I struggle with my thin and flat hair. 

It’s not going to give me extreme volume, but I’ll take it over no volume! 

📍 Queenie Hair Studio
10019 N Dale Mabry Ste 200
Tampa, FL

She specializes in Asian hair and the health of your hair. She also has services from keratin straightening, digital perms to Japanese hair straightening. 

She’s been helping me bring life back to my bleach and dead hair!

Order seafood and get it delivered straight to your door! oceanzen_us sent us some goodies to try out and I was really impressed how everything was packaged. Lots of ice packs so nothing melts! 

We made a little seafood boil and you can now order off their Amazon page which is wild!

I have been on a search for a stand alone store for food Bánh tráng trộn (mixed rice paper salad) a popular Vietnamese street food but have not been successful! 

Luckily, I have found a really good vendor that is usually at the night market but you can still order from her! 

📍Gái Bắc
Tampa Bay Area 
(Send me a message if you need her #) - but it’s at the end of the video 

I tried her Bánh tráng cuốn chấm sốt me bơ which is a rice paper roll with green mango, Vietnamese jerky, coriander, peanuts, eggs and more. It’s super chewy and you can wait until the rice paper to soften for a softer chew. It comes with Vietnamese butter and a tamarind sauce. 

I love her Bánh tráng which is a rice paper salad and she loads it up with green mango, jerky, eggs, fried shallots, peanuts and so much more. At first it is a very different mouth feel but I ended up loving the flavors. She adds Vietnamese butter and mayo to it which makes it super rich. (Shareable portions!)

I love handrolls so I had to stop by this new spot that just opened in the Seminole Heights area in Tampa. 

📍 Nori Nori Craft Handrolls
6705 N Florida Ave
Tampa, FL

noricrafthandrolls 

This is a cute little spot for small bites. They have handroll sets or you can order it individually. 

I really enjoyed the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice and could eat 4 servings and leave happy! 

The handrolls are good, simple flavors and nothing flashy about it. I did wish there was some refreshing/crunchy pairing for the handrolls because I found the flavors to all be rich and savory, but overall it was a nice date night! 

(I loved the poke sauce that used for the white tuna poke handroll. I could eat that with octopus, salmon .. anything!)

We also tried the Torched Salmon Donburi and this was a nice comforting dish. Warm rice, savory dish and creamy sauce paired with cucumbers for that fresh crunch and pickled ginger.

Hands down my favorite spot for Bun Bo Hue in the Tampa Bay Area. Even after many years, I still go back 😍

📍 Café Bích Nga 
5572 Park Blvd
Pinellas Park, FL

cafe_bich_nga_official 

They got super popular because their name became a meme but the BBH is worth the trip. I wish I could stop by more often but the service is … slow 😂. Our last visit was much quicker though because back then we used to have to wait 45 mins or so just to even get our food! 

I got the Large size and it’s huge!! I like to take it home to have another meal but their bowls are just normally large. I would love to one day try more dishes off their menu but their bbh is just that good. 

I love that they give you all the good veggies (including banana blossom & water spinach). The broth is complex and flavorful and they don’t forget about the blood cubes! 

I wish the meat is just a lil bit more tender. But, it’s okay! Very home cooked meal and the Vietnamese coffee is no joke. It’s almost like the Le’s Vietnamese coffee concentrate and it makes me question if it is or not. It’s soooo good. Thick and strong!

I will always get this Thai Tea Slushie! (Slushy) it is soooo good and idk why no one talks about it! Perfect for a hot day. 

📍 Patti’s Kitchen 
6527 Park Blvd
Pinellas Park, FL

pattiskitchenthai 

Patti’s Kitchen is my number one spot when I want Thai noodles. My personal favorite is the Tew Nam Tok which is a deep savory broth with slight sweetness and tang to it. It’s not for everyone but it is a really amazing bowl. 

I want another bowl right now 😂

Did you know that mazzaros has a new family member? If you’re looking for a delicious small sweet treat you may want to check out this new spot! 

📍 Zagara 
3001 22nd Ave N
St. Petersburg, FL

zagaragelato 

It’s such a cute spot and they specialize in handcrafted Sicilian gelato & granita. We tried the melon granita and that was an explosion of melon flavors. The ice is soft and almost slushy like. 

My favorite bite was the Dubai Chocolate Gelato panini (with their brioche). There were so many different textures from the soft bread, cold gelato to the crunchy bits in the Dubai chocolate. 

Thank you mel0dyxo for suggesting we check it out!

The first Vietnamese Buffet in Florida! They recently changed ownership and released their AYCE Vietnamese Buffet concept this summer. 

📍 Quan Ngon Bistro
6129 Park Blvd
Pinellas Park, FL

quanngonbistro 
(They just created their Instagram so give them some love)

This isn’t on Kim Son’s level but the variety and flavor is on point! It feels like we are at a big Vietnamese party with all the home cooked food! 

On the weekends they have 30-35 different dishes that they will rotate from week to week. This is a great way to try other Vietnamese dishes you’ve never had or just have several bites of dishes you don’t want to commit a full meal to! 

I thought all the flavors were pretty good! The food could be a bit hotter but there is so much potential! 

I will definitely be back but if you do try them, lmk what you think!

Love Asian food and need a spot to impress? This is it! #hosted 

📍 Sunda New Asian
3648 Midtown Dr
Tampa, FL

sundanewasian 

Elevated Southeast Asian flavors with a great vibe. It’s located in the middle of Midtown Tampa which is already a fun spot! 

We tried a few new dishes we haven’t had before and really enjoyed the Bulgogi Roti Tacos, Lobster Wagyu Roll & Panang Beef Short Rib. 

The Emerald (mocktail) was delicious and I had to get another! It has a strong pandan flavor and a nice creaminess from the coconut milk. The guava, lime and pineapple in it gave it a sweet and tropical acidic kick. I loved it! 

The Panang Beef Short Rib was my favorite bite! It is definitely a splurge dish since it’s a bit pricey but it’s soooo worth it. The short rib was so tender and I loved that the seasonal squash was perfectly cooked with a crunch. Such a comforting dish with a bowl of rice.

Trying Trinidadian food for the first time for our August foodie meetup! This time theadlerdiaries picked Trini Spice and it was such a fun learning experience. 

📍 Trini Spice Cuisine & Events
7819 N 56th St
Tampa, FL

trinispice813 

This was familiar yet a little new to me but the owner Trish was such a star for introducing us to the new dishes and the background on it. She is super passionate about serving up all housemade food made from scratch. 

Try their curry dishes or popular street foods! We also tried Bake & Shark which was super interesting. It’s not for me but I can see why people hunt down this dish. 

The freshly made Sorrel (hibiscus) drink has all the holiday spices and I couldn’t stop drinking it. I need to get a jug just to keep in the fridge! 

Thank you Trini Spice for having us and theadlerdiaries for setting it up! It was great bonding over this fun experience with thisjenngirl palmerholmes diningaroundtampa

One of the best Soup Dumplings in Florida! I have followed them around Florida and practically getting closer to Tampa! #hosted 

📍 Zen Dumpling
2420 W Brandon Blvd
Brandon, FL

zendumpling.usa 

I have tried their Jax, Orlando and now their newest Brandon location and will have to say they are all pretty consistent in quality and flavor. 

We don’t have any good or dedicated soup dumpling spots in the Tampa Bay Area so this is a BIG deal! 

We have tried a handful of dishes throughout the year and we really enjoy their stir fried green beans, chicken soup, xiao long bao (a lot of their flavors but my personal favorite is the Crab & Pork and Truffle Pork), Dan Dan noodles & Pork Belly Noodles. 

If you love Xiao long bao/soup dumplings this is a spot you need to try out! The flavor is pretty good and they are made fresh by hand!

If you’re looking for a Korean spot to impress a date or to celebrate an event, I highly recommend Korê Steakhouse! It’s one of our favorite spot and the quality of their meats is no joke. #hosted 

📍 KORÊ STEAKHOUSE
1561 Lakefront Dr suite 111
Sarasota, FL

kore_steakhouse 

We don’t go down to Sarasota often but have been to Korê at least once a year for a date night for the last 3 years. The quality of their meat is excellent and I understand why they call themselves a Korean steakhouse. 

The flavors were great and the service is always on point. We did the Butcher’s Pride Combo for 2 and it had a nice variety of cuts. I was super surprised how tender the meats were and it was also nicely seasoned. 

They do have a special monthly dish that rotates out so keep an eye out on that! I also love the community it is in. You can walk around, have a drink and chill by the water.

Finally stopped by the Sunset Night Market and this definitely had a lot more Vietnamese vendors and felt like you’re back in Vietnam (with all the stalls and tables within the tented stalls). 

📍 Sunset Night Market
(Current location)
12111 66th Street N
Largo, FL

sunset33773 

The parking situation was not fun but a lot of people tend to grab their food and go so there’s a lot of traffic going in and out. 

There’s a lot of Vietnamese vendors and they set it up so you can order and even sit and eat within their stalls (tables set up). They also have all sorts of Vietnamese dishes from noodles, banh xeo, to che. 

I didn’t get to grab a lot but we’ll definitely be back! It was dark and the floor was so wet that it was hard to walk around. 

It’s every weekend and in the morning it’s a farmers market and then at night it’s a night market.

OKAYYYY this store is a must if you’re on the west coast of Florida (Tampa Bay Area). It’s a mixture of Lotte/Hmart, MD Market and a warehouse. It is pretty big and I was overwhelmed! It is more Chinese (product wise) but you can find some goodies from all over. 

📍 HL Asian Store
7113 S Tamiami Trl
Sarasota, FL

I think this is my new favorite store on this side right now. I can’t wait to go back!

They have a decent seafood section with live fish, eel, crab and KING CRAB. 

Lots of instant noodles and fridges of all the goodies.

A Japanese Izakaya is the perfect way to end a work day. Bar food, drinks and good company. 

📍 BG Robata Sushi
1530 McMullen Booth Rd Unit D4
Clearwater, FL

bgrobata 

Small Japanese bites from skewers, sushi to fried food. The Chicken Karaage is great and it goes really well with a glass of beer. 

They also have entrees from Japanese curry to noodle dishes. 

I decided to have fun with their Japanese cold noodles and added a little bit of soy sauce & wasabi (it was missing some salt) and I think a lil ponzu would be great too! I topped it with Ikura which was perfect and added a nice salty brininess.
 
I used to love their Matcha Tiramisu because it was soft & creamy. Sweet but had the perfect bitterness. This time, I’m not sure what happened but it was semi frozen and super bitter.

I finally got my hands on the newer flavors of the popular Asian fruit ice cream. These are the Refreshing Lemon and Milk flavor with Yellow Peach jam. 

I got these from MD Market in Pinellas Park, FL. See if you can grab yourself some too! 

So far I’ve had the Lemon, Mango, Peach, Refreshing Lemon & Milk flavor with Yellow Peach jam.  I do enjoy these and it’s fun to try. It’s definitely a splurge. 

The Refreshing Lemon is more “lemony” than the original Lemon flavor, but it’s more like a mix citrus flavor than a straight lemon flavor. The Milk is similar to a white rabbit and the yellow peach is pretty mellow (I feel like this is more like a soft hug and mellow in sweet flavors - idk if that makes sense).

Happy National Oyster Day! Rushed over to The Tides Market to catch their Happy Hour $1 oysters. 

📍 The Tides Market
305 Main St
Safety Harbor, FL

thetidesmarket 

You can’t beat the Happy Hour oysters! We also tried their new Oyster Club and in my opinion I would just stick to the Happy Hour. I was under the impression that it would be selected oysters with different pairings like an “omakase” but the oysters were so tiny and we only got a mignonette without any shallots or anything. 

We also tried another pasta dish and it lacked seasoning. So I think the food isn’t for us but I love the Happy Hour oysters.

ritualgroundscafe is becoming one of our favorite matcha popup in the Tampa Bay Area. They are new, but quickly becoming a favorite among the locals! 

I love their fun and quirky twist on the drinks and they also add a bit of their culture to it. Umm and hello, I love the name and the skulls! 

Def check them out if you can! They also do pick up orders in St. Pete. 

I love the Strawberry Basil Matcha and the Tropical Matcha Fresca. The Wasabi Matcha Fresca is really interesting and fun!
