There's an all you can eat drive thru ribs place in Plant City.
I'm sure you can find plenty of Buffets.

If stayin' near the airport... basicly go out to 275 and follow East towards the construction hell zone that is the I-4/I-275 Junction... before you reach the junction you should see exit signs if I recall... exiting to the R and follow signs... or from 275 (near the airport) if you exit onto Dale Mabry (right) and take a Left on Kennedy... I think Kennedy will take into that part of town as well but if not then there's a Krispy Kreme on your left (so at least you know where the closest KK is to the airport :lol: )....

awww hell, what am I sayin... I know my way there but I couldnt begin to give you accurate directions (except for the Krispy Kreme - that is really there)... I just recognize the areas when I was driving through them... :-?

Just follow the signs to Clearwater and go to the beach (trust me, you DO NOT want me to give you directions there... ) but if you make it to the pier... eat at Crabby Bills - they have good Fried Oysters and Key Lime Pie (as seen at CB's while being fed in far right pic below in my sig line)

Or if all else fails... go to Busch Gardens :lol:
