After a great visit to the Florida Aquarium, it was around lunchtime so as we were about to walk out, we passed by guest services and asked for recommendations on where to eat. Initially, we had looked at downtown St. Petersburg, but an Uber there from where we were would have cost >$35 and we would not have been sure if the trip and the food in that area would have been worth it. Luckily, the Aquarium guest services said there were restaurants walking distance in the area and some that had been converted from shipping containers. It certainly was worth checking out. The walk was about 5 minutes and one would notice the outdoor restaurants area right away. There were more than a dozen places to choose from, places like Fit Bowl, Gallipoli Taqueria, Jesus Splendid Ice Creams, Flock & Stock, Jotoro, LightHaus Beer Garden, Murph's Barbecue, Naked Farmer, Splits illegal, Edisons Swigamajiig, Whatever Pops, The Battery, BurgerFi, Wichita, Please!, Hampton Chocolate Factory to name a few. At first, we were overwhelmed with the choices, though as we got to visit each of the food retailers, we then narrowed down to what we wanted. We selected Philly cheesesteaks (two different kinds, Philly with shaved Riley, provolone, mayo, shrooms and onions with additional lettuce, tomato and avocado mash and Chipotle Cheesesteak with additional pepperjack on a hoagie)at Flock and Stock and freshly squeezed lemonade from Murph's BBQ. We then looked for an open spot with an umbrella cover. It was midday but the weather was nice and pleasant. So, how was the food. Wow, the Philly cheesesteaks were amazingly delicious, possibly one of the best we have had. For dessert, we tried the Frozen S'mores and molten chocolate lava shots on a cone. These were amazing as well, the smores normally would be melted but as they were frozen, didn't crumble when you bit into it. My wife loved the molten chocolate lava shots, described as a waffle cone filled with pure molten chocolate fillings and whipped cream. Even just typing this made me crave for more. Definitely, Sparkman Wharf is a great place to have a meal and it's nearby in downtown Tampa. Check it out.
