Places to go in Tampa
On Thursday, March 15th, The Tampa To Do Crew found Woody’s, the best kept secret in South Tampa. As we were driving on South Dale Mabry looking for a place to get a Greek Salad, the sign caught our eye, (Woody’s Greek Salads) – we did a U-turn as soon as possible. WOW! are we glad we did. Salads, Sandwiches and Wraps of all kinds made it hard to choose, although we eventually settled on the chopped Greek Salad and the Grilled Club. Both were absolutely delicious and prices were reasonable. Our thanks to Paulette and our server Alan for a fantastic lunch. Visit woody’s at www.woodysofsouthtampa.com
