You'll hear former northerners like me say it all the time. Sorry Florida natives.  But the Chinese food in Florida is pretty awful.  But if you look hard enough, there are a few spots that measure up to what we enjoyed back in the frigid north.  Now when I say Chinese food, I'm talking the "New York style" unhealthy stuff that only fat Americans like me eat. 2 of my go to spots are in Tampa.  There's 1 in Seminole.  One is in Brandon.  And my newest find in in St. Petersburg.  Let's eat.

Devouring the 813 and 727 one neighborhood at a time. #GenoAteTampa began as a hashtag so I could quickly point listeners to places I've recommended on my Tampa radio show and social media channels.  Now, "Geno Ate Tampa" has become the chronicles of my never-ending quest for great burgers, sweet and sour chicken, buffalo wings, fajitas, chicken parmesan, pizza, apple pastries, cheesesteak, grouper nuggets, french fries, lobster rolls and ice cream in the Tampa Bay area.  And that's just what I have for breakfast.

My 5 Picks for Chinese Food Lunch Specials in Tampa

Doing a road trip to South Florida?  I've got a spot for the best cheesesteak eggrolls, an awesome place for subs to take to the beach or a fancy Brazilian steakhouse dinner.  The other episodes in this summer travel series all require a plane ticket.  But if you're up for the road trip to South Florida, I've got some great places to try.

A few years ago, a Pasco friend retired in Colombia and kept bugging me to visit.  I saw no reason to.  South America was never on my travel radar.  The food alone is enough to go back again and again.  Whether it's pan de la abuela in Bogota or a peanut butter banana coffee smoothie in Medellin, I've got lots of places for you to try.  But no matter what you do, make sure you get some pan de la abuela.  It's what you see in the photo for this episode.  It's my favorite food anywhere and it's criminally cheap. About $1.

Before a day at the blackjack table, I have a spot in Vegas I love to hit up for apple cinnamon stuffed French toast.  And how do I really feel about In-N-Out burgers?  And what parts of Sin City should you avoid because the prices are too sinful?
