We have such a diverse population that have some great ethnic food in some of the places that you would least expect it... Latin food, just pick your country and enjoy just about any hole in the wall on Columbus or Armenia...

If you know any true natives from farms, a new world of food can be found, such as swamp cabbage among many other FL country dishes...

Many good eats around here...
KenL. I have to agree with everyting you said. I remember when there were little places right on the water front around this area where you could get smoked mullet, vendors with tricicle type carts selling deviled crabs down town Tampa ad Ybor City. That was back in the day--not now.
