The best restaurant in all of Florida is, without a doubt, Bern's
Steakhouse. See: http://www.bernssteakhouse.com/bs_frame.htm
Reservations essential. Quote: "Since 1956, Bern's Steak House has
provided thousands of guests with a world-class dining experience
based on Bern Laxer's belief that the "guest must always come back."
However, if you are into something with an latin flavor and authentic
Spanish cuisine go to the Columbia Restaurant in historic Ybor City.
See: http://www.columbiarestaurant.com/ybor.asp From The Boston
Globe: "We started our evening with a couple of Ybor Golds - the
beer brewed right in Ybor City - then ordered the generous 1905 Salad
(named for the year the Columbia opened) and the restaurant's specialty,
paella. Nothing about the Columbia disappointed. Service was gracious
and the spirited, colorful, four-woman-one-man flamenco show was
thoroughly entertaining. We left in a decidedly Spanish state of mind."

The meals will be expensive, but it is your anniversary. [Roger]
