First important thing to note about Tallahassee, the really awesome espresso bar, Cool Grindz, has closed. Both locations, as far as we could tell. Very disappointing discovery on a Sunday morning when you really wanted a great Cuban coffee.
Next important thing to know, the Publix at Ocala Corners is fascinating. It’s totally not like any Publix I’ve been too. I’m not sure I can describe what makes it different, trust me – it just is.
Also, the round Holiday Inn is possibly not the best hotel in town. I know, you’re shocked. It certainly wasn’t the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I’ve paid more for considerably worse hotels. There were problems with room keys not working, we never did manage to get more than one working key. There were problems with room service not making up rooms, the hotel not having staff to bring up towels that housekeeping never provided and problems with housekeeping knocking on the door before 9am on a Sunday – and then again an hour later. On the other hand, the wifi was good, it’s in a decent location, there’s parking and it’s inexpensive.
One last noteworthy thing about Tallahassee, Canopy Road Cafe is not a half bad place for breakfast on a Sunday morning. It’s a little crowded but the food was good. (I had a California omelet without the bacon – excellent.)
At least you had a nice breakfast.
I’d love me some Cuban coffee right now myself. I need to find out where they serve that here in L.A. (too far from my house, I’m sure.)
I live in California, and I had no idea that we have our own omelet. This is very exciting news.
P.S. What exactly is in this omelet?
