Skidders - St Pete Beach

We woke up early to beautiful blue sky and it was hot hot hot! Total contrast to last night. We planned to go to Skidders for breakfast. It was a nice short walk from our hotel (Grand Plaza Hotel). We arrived at 8am (opens at 7am) and we were the only ones there.

Once again food and service were excellent.

Kids pancakes & sausages




3 buckwheat pancake stack with strawberries and oooodles of maple syrup! These pancakes were the best. Even better than IHOP in my opinion.




Corn beef hash. Once again, just like last night Pumba was in heaven but this time a corn beef hash one!




Half an order of biscuits and sausage gravy. Portion was massive. As it was only meant to be a half an apple danish was also ordered. And also massive!






We had 2 orange/apple juices, 2 chocolate milks (we are on holiday right?! ) and 1 coffee.
Cost $45 plus tip.

Larry's Ice Cream Cafe - St Pete

We only found out about this place after reading abiknox's food report. So thank you! Can't say we were particularly hungry but didn't want to miss out! Had planned to share but once we got there the options were endless so we decided to have our own. We all enjoyed every mouthful and didn't regret it. We sat in and also enjoyed the air con.

Cost $27.

If you purchased 2 scoops you got this cone free. The photos do not do the sizes justice. I can't believe we ate it all.

Girls chose Garbage Can & Moose Tracks (true!) and Garbage Can & Cookies and Cream.




Pumba75 had cookie sundae with Black Forest ice cream.




I had Nutella and triple chocolate.

Level 11 - Grand Plaza Hotel

You can't beat a roof top terrace bar over looking the beach! Enjoyed sitting and chilling together. There was only one other family there so very quiet. Great place to have a drink. Would like to return to try some of the food options.

2 juices, Passion Fruit Bellini & Miller Lite cost $20.

Bongos - Grand Plaza Hotel

This was one of the restaurants/bar we had been really looking forward to visiting. We had originally read about it in Wizzo's trip reports and we were not disappointed. Without sounding too cheesy, all the working, saving and planning had been totally worth it to sit on the beach with my favourite people, chatting, laughing, eating great food, sipping a cocktail, whilst watching the sunset. Perfect.

Anyway. Enough with the mushy stuff. Here are the photos...
