Night Out on the Town

We'll revisit an earlier Night Out on the Town. Hat Tricks was profiled early in the season, but after our recent trip to Tampa it is worth updating. Hat Tricks is a Hockey Bar and we found that out first hand. Observing a Iowa fan ask the bartender if they'd switch the NHL game on the big screen to the Holiday Bowl, the bartender responded by saying, "We don't turn off Hockey Games."

The food was outstanding and it provided many of us a meal on Christmas Eve when all other restaurants were closed. I asked for the Grouper on a number of occasions, but all but one time they were out. The chicken was very tasty, but it was disappointing to find them out of grouper.


Hat Tricks was much more convenient on this trip as we stayed across the street at the Hyatt. However my secret dining spot no longer belonged to myself. It was busy every night, mostly with Iowa fans and those of our travelling party.


Hat Tricks did not disappoint.
