Monday, November 16th, 2009

A full platter of freshly shucked oysters is a sight to behold. They can be elegantly displayed or thrown onto a beer tray with a bed of ice. No matter the presentation, oyster lovers will slurp down these culinary delights with glee. Here are a few examples of what the ocean or the gulf gives up for the benefit of the bivalve mollusc lovers out there.

Are You Ready For Some Football: SKOB

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

An Ice Cold SKOB Brew We promised we would get around to giving you some valuable information on where to watch your favorite NFL team play this year. Places where you can get some food and drinks and not miss any of the action on the field. And, our first installment is, the Siesta Key Oyster Bar or SKOB as it is better known to the locals.

SKOB ranks right up there as one of the best NFL viewing spots in town. Located in Siesta Village it has enough TV’s for all the games to be shown at the same time. It’s considered a “Bears” bar; the owners are originally from Chicago. So there is usually a pretty decent sized Illinois contingent there. There is seating both inside and outside. So, that means if you would like to enjoy our great fall and winter weather while rooting for your team you’re in luck. They offer dozens of different types of beer on tap or in bottle, as well as all kinds of mixed drinks including their signature “Village Idiot” and a great margarita.

Add to all of this a menu that features award winning wings and lots of different types of sandwiches (oh yeah, did we mention freshly shucked oysters) and you have a combination that’s hard to beat. So, roll off the beach, or out of bed on Sunday and let SKOB be a part of your game day activities.

If you have a place that you would like us to feature, leave a comment or drop us an email.
