Here's something a little more in my "beat":

Crepes are creeping out all over the place. There’s B.T. Nguyen’s new Flip in Tampa, the crepe-mobile called La Crepe D'Or at the Saturday at the art exhibit in Williams Park in St. Petersburg, and now you can have them at the new Toasted Pheasant Bistro (14445 N. Dale Mabry, Tampa, (813) 265-6700), with poached chicken in a white wine cream sauce or with classic beef bourguignon tucked inside. Opened on Feb. 11, Toasted Pheasant is the new project of Peter Leonavicius from London, former co-owner of Le Bouchon Bistro in Bellair Bluffs. The menu looks like a lovely assembly of classic French bistro dishes, and the aim is to conduct interactive wine dinners.
