Fat Beet Farm is one of the coolest and I think best kept secrets in Tampa Bay that you need to know about. It’s right on Hillsborough Avenue and describes the Farm as a model for sustainability. Good food, farm yours, yoga and excellent customer service. So I stopped yesterday for weekend to-go’s and here’s what I found.
A HIT
That bakery case. You stand in line, look down and just give it up for pie, cookies and those cream cheese cinnamon rolls. A huge hit, and there’s a few in the freezer for Sunday morning.
A MISS
I love chicken salad, but what I don’t love are too many raw onions to the point that’s all I could taste. I honestly thought the little deep red bits were the cranberries, and those were few and far between. They do a great salad with fresh dill but just overdid it on the onions. No no and no. Please lighten up.
But if that’s the biggest complaint I could come up with, that’s okay. Check out that to-go case and the incredible array of entrees made right in their kitchen, even edible flowers. I still love you!
