Mise en Place, Tampa, FL

By Rand Hoch, Travel Editor



While visiting old friends in Tampa last weekend, we dined at one of our favorite restaurants -- Mise en Place. 

We were pleased to see oysters on the menu, especially since the featured oysters were Connecticut Blue Points. 

The mildly salty oysters were offered three on a plate, served with a Blood Orange pink peppercorn mignonette in the shells' cups for $10.25.  This turned out to be a great modern twist for a classic oyster.
