Monday 3/23/09 Places to dine & enjoy in Ft Pierce























We are leaving tomorrow, but we plan on returning to Ft Pierce when we can spend more time here. Would love to see the historic district and experience more of the culinary teasures here. We did get to stop in Mother Tuckers Sand Bar & Grill today for lunch....a wonderful outdoor bar/cafe, cant miss it.....its behind Al's bait & tackle shop! The food was good and very reasonably priced, but the real draw in my opinion was the decor. And we had heard about Buckshot Bays Rockin' Cafe, a floating diner that docks here at Riverside boatyard, and travels around the harbor in Ft Pierce. It claims to have the best (and largest) fish taco around, but it was closed today...sign says they went fishing, however I did get a couple photos of it.
**Update 3/24/09** Since we are sort of stuck in Ft Pierce another day (waiting on a pump to be overnighted) we took a walk this morning, and Buckshot Bays Rockin' Cafe was open, so we stopped in for lunch. Great place! The owners, Barbara & Pete, are the best! We had today's lunch special....Cuban Sandwich w/fries, pickle & a drink, and I have to agree with Barbara, it was probably the best cuban sandwich Ive had. She said they make their own tzatziki sauce for their Gyros and insisted we try it with our fries. Good sauce, but im not sure about it being a dip for fries. They have a deal where if you eat breakfast there and bring your receipt back at lunch, they will deduct the price of your breakfast from your lunch! Interesing marketing.
Thanks go to Rob for letting us know about these great places to eat!

Hey Guys!

You're making me hungry reading your articles about Buckshot and Harbor Town.

Running to have dinner with Steph and Andy at the Salty Dawg just before the Lessener Bridge.
