Joe's Visit / Ybor City Columbia


Joe is in Tampa for a couple of days for a shoot. Wayne and I met him for dinner. Joe wanted something with local flavor . . . so we decided on the Columbia in Ybor City. It was a memorable experience! While we were waiting to be seated, we got to enjoy the Flamenco Show in the main dining room. (Pictured above.)





Joe is chatting with Joy as we were waiting.


Our dining room.



Who? me?



Our appetizer: Shrimp & Crabmeat Alcachofas.
Rich: Ropa Vieja














Wayne: Cayo Hueso






Joe: Pampano en Papillot




The Three Caballeros . . . (not all gay!)


Dessert: Cien Anos prepared by Francesco, our waiter.



He flambed it again on the table.



It was big enough for all to share!




We drove around after dinner to show Joe some of the Tampa sights. A quick trip thru downtown to Harbour Island,
then over past the University of Tampa.
