TampaBayDateNightGuide ~ Fall Fun ~ Fall Craft Beer & Foodie Events
Fall is about more than leaves changing colors (uh, except Florida…) and pumpkins and boots (on the cold frigid mornings where the temperature barely hits 68 degrees…).
Fall is the doorway to the exciting Holiday season, and it ushers in so many delicious foods and smells and flavors – even beyond pumpkin spiced everything!
To get a great sense of all the flavors that Fall has to offer, a trip to a food and cocktail event might be the perfect recipe!
