Our First Full Day in St Pete Part 1: And, Yes, I Did remember to Take Lots of Food Pics This Trip!!!!
I think we got to my In-Laws house around 10:30 (It's a 15-minute drive from the airport). We unpacked the car, hugs, and kisses all around, and then we sat around for a bit. We had plans to meet Joe's sister, Christina for lunch at an awesome Thai restaurant on the beach called Thai Star. This is a tradition for us every trip to St Pete (Our kids love it too). It's a small, family-owned restaurant with excellent food and they have awesome lunch specials. And, believe me, we were HUNGRY!!!! A Dunkin coffee and apple juice weren't doing it for these two Chicagoans...
We left for lunch about 11:30 (again, another quick drive). We drove with Joe's parents and met Chris there. I ordered the Broccoli with Shrimp. It was served with a ginger salad, white rice, and 2 spring rolls. Joe ordered a Curry dish and his too came with a ginger salad, white rice, and 2 spring rolls. Both our dishes were AMAZING!!!! I'm not going to bore you with what everyone else ordered, but I will include a pic of all of us at the restaurant.
After lunch, we ran some errands with Joe's family. Then we went home and rested a bit because we had plans to pick up a certain little lady for dinner that night...Do you have any idea who that could be???
