It's all too easy to become complaisant in Jacksonville and rarely stray from the areas one lives and works. But we're still in February, so I'd say the year's young enough to make exploring these recommendations a resolution. I only wish I'd known to follow the blog in "real time"!Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00112925105285197174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125489727305105060.post-83397595947125398582012-02-14T22:01:02.655-05:002012-02-14T22:01:02.655-05:00Best of Luck!

The Florida Smacker is full of flavor and a great value. I've tasted a few of the brews there as well and find them very impressive. Last time we were there they have expanded the dinning area which was a big plus.

The atmosphere was rather austere, and I was put off a bit by the random non-customers sprawled around all over the place listening to crackly handheld shortwave radios.

The downtown area has virtually no grown-up restaurants, so I am hoping this place is successful.<br /><br />The unanimous favorite dish at our table of four people was the Curried Short Rib. So unusual, rich, and satisfying on a cool fall night. But really everything we've had there has been fantastic, from the silky, tender dumplings in their little bamboo steamer basket to the drunken noodles, to the very sophisticated cocktails and fabulous Thai-friendly Riesling wines.Frederick Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07608810132703009856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125489727305105060.post-70254111419050413152010-11-22T18:35:33.762-05:002010-11-22T18:35:33.762-05:00Thanks Cari, it was great meeting you too.

However, that is not a true complaint because it really isn't the type of place you want to rush out of. <br /><br />All in all, great review. You had me at "whiny coffee snob" and your use of the word "diatribe". I do agree with Mr. Wright regarding standards, but sometimes its still fun to be a snob. <br /><br />Cheers!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15583064460050267036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125489727305105060.post-13596604446568043502010-10-19T23:13:09.686-04:002010-10-19T23:13:09.686-04:00Looks scrumptious!
