Default Re: Tampa trip...what should we do there?

I'd go to Ybor City. Have lunch at the Columbia or Tampa Bay Brewing Company. Check out the local cigar rollers, hit up the Fuente shop, and then get the hell out of there before dark.

Hah, definitely hit up Columbia. Great place. Get a Mojito.

One of the best steak houses in the US and I highly recommend you do the tour. Be sure to hit up the dessert in the separate HARRY WAUGH DESSERT ROOM.

Corona cigars is a popular night time hang out near the stadium. Good restaurants around that area. https://www.coronacigar.com/tampa-store/

I’ve eaten several times at Kona Grill is good. Has some nice sushi. Eat then have a cigar. Good whiskies and bourbons can be had at the Corona Cigar bar.

I'm not finding much on the Fuente shop. Do they have a factory there or is it just a retail store? Can you share any links?
